PEAR HONEY

Steps:

The longer you cook it, the thicker it gets. Cooking time is usually 2 to 3 hours.
• Ladle into hot sterile jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Wipe rims with a clean damp cloth, and seal jars with lids and rings. Process in a boiling water canner for 10 minutes, or the amount of time recommended by your local extension for your area.
