No pectin is needed in this quick jam that is thickened with chia seeds. The subtle orange flavor adds a pop of brightness to the strawberries. Spread on toast, or top your yogurt or oatmeal! Keep in the...
I really like spicy and sweet together. This is my modification of Plum-Orange-Cardamom Jam from Mes Confitures by Christine Ferber. You can adjust the spiciness to your own taste. My first batch used...
This is my 'creation'! Your entire house smells like homemade apple pie during the cooking time, and lingers afterwards too. This would be so yummy on cinnamon raisin toast! Or warmed and served over ice...
As a hot-sauce addict and after YEARS of experimenting, I have finally come up with the perfect balance of scorch and yumminess. This jelly should be poured onto a brick of cream cheese and served with...
Need another way to use green tomatoes? Puree them and heat with sugar and fruit flavored gelatin (use your favorite flavor!) and you've got freezer jam.
For the most fragrant and attractive jam use brightly colored tea roses, or any other fragrant roses. I am using light pink roses from my garden - although they do not make the most colorful jam, I am...
Great with Turkey with Apricot Glaze! Can be made without the nuts 4 days ahead; add the nuts just before serving. Originally submitted to ThanksgivingRecipe.com.
This strawberry freezer jelly is quick, easy and delicious on toast, ice cream or even in milkshakes! Keep jars of this in the freezer and take them out when you are ready to use them. Once thawed, they...
This jam is free of refined sugars and doesn't need pectin. The chia seeds help thicken the jam and it comes together quickly. Jam keeps in a tightly sealed container up to 5 days in the fridge.
Use dried figs and your Instant Pot® to create this luscious, date-sweetened fig butter. One of the things I now love, just as much as I hated as a kid, are figs. So of course, I set out to make my own...
A rhubarb lover's delight! Rhubarb jam, pure and simple, with the consistency of apple butter. This jam also freezes well, but it will probably get eaten up before making it to the freezer! Fabulous!
This is an old English recipe that is especially good on meats. Instead of parsley you may substitute mint, rosemary, sage, tarragon, or thyme. If you can only find dried parsley, use 1/4 cup.
A classic red currant jelly made from fresh currants. This came from my one of my mother's handwritten recipe cards. I do not know its origin, but know it probably dates back to the early 1940's.
Using an electric juicer to extract juice for jelly making can be adapted to other fruits. Jelly making this way is faster, less messy, and less likely to cloud later on.
Blazing hot pepper jelly is addictive if you can handle it! The grated carrot adds nice color and texture. Pepper hotness and people's tolerance varies, so you'll have to experiment to find the right number...
This is a favorite in our family at Christmas. This jam is not spicy, but can be made to be spicy by adding more peppers or a few habanero peppers. The flavor of the sweet strawberries combined with the...
This easy recipe includes rhubarb, crushed pineapple, sugar, and strawberry gelatin, and takes about 30 minutes total to make. I like to use it as a freezer jam since it works so well. You can have fresh...
This is a jam recipe was given to me by my mother in law. She made it every year and would send us a pint because we could not get gooseberries where we lived.
This unusual jelly has a variety of purposes. It can replace cranberry jelly with turkey for the holidays. It is lovely for breakfast toast and biscuits. Try it on pancakes!
Yes you can use dried apricots to make jam! This has beautiful color and flavor. I have dried California Blenheim apricots from Apricot King shipped to me in Washington and they are wonderful.
If marmalade is not your favorite type of fruit preserve, it's most likely because of those bitter flavors from the white parts of whatever type of citrus was used. That is not an issue with this gorgeous...
This tastes so much like honey, your friends will never believe that the bees did not make it. Great on hot biscuits and to give as gifts. This was my grandmother's recipe that she made every fall. Hope...
The quince is an old-fashioned, intensely aromatic, and dearly loved fruit. It is not an easy fruit to prepare, as it needs to be poached or cooked before it can be used in recipes. Quince paste is a wonderful...
I always loved pumpkin preserves, but this recipe is my favorite. You may decide to omit ginger and only add lemon, but in my opinion ginger makes it very special.
