Re: Summer Canning 2014
I'm going to post the Lavender-Berry-Honey Jam Recipe, if nobody minds. If I don't write it down, I'm going to forget it. I just know it.
6 cups of pureed blackberries or dewberries (about a gallon of fresh berries)
3 cups of local honey
1/2 cup of lavender sugar
1-2 tablespoons of lemon juice
Combine all ingredients in a heavy pot. Heat over medium heat until boiling. Boil gently, stirring often, until jam sets (about 45 minutes). Test set with a chill test. Fill jars and place lids and rings. Process in a water bath canner for 10 minutes.
