Made jam with my blueberries last night. I finally figured out a recipe for low sugar blueberry jam that works. Like most things in life, it took reading the directions. For a case of 12 half pints, I used 15 cups of whole berries, which I chopped in the food processor. Then added 2.25 cups of water and 3 packages of No/Low sugar Sure Jell. When it still boils as you stir, boil one minute more, take off the heat, and add 1.5 cups of sugar. 10 minutes in the boiling bath canner and you are done. The jam set up like a champ. Been a long time since I made it right. The downtown grocery is going out of business and had the sure jell at 66% off, so need to go buy a few cases as I don’t believe pectin gets stale.
