Jams & Jellies
No method of preserving food smells as wonderful as making jams and jellies.
Basic Tips for Making Jams & Jellies:
- The freshest, sweetest fruit makes the best jelly.
- The acidity level has to be right for the fruits to gel. Lemon juice is added to low acid fruits.
- Don’t alter sugar amounts in recipes. Sugar helps preserve and gel the fruits.
