This is what I did today~ 1st time ever to make jams! It took a few hours, but in the end I had enough jams to use, give away & to take to the family reunion auction this coming week. I forgot to take pictures of the first jam I made, but this is the finish product:
Apricot Surprise Jam
(consists of zucchini, pineapple & apricot gelatin)
I had to use the shredded zucchini that I had in my freezer from last year to make room for this years crop. I had just enough to make a double batch of it. I wasn't to sure if I wanted to make it, but you can only make zucchini bread, cake & pasta sauce so many times. I tried it, and it's pretty good. I was glad that the zucchini cooked to transparent, so you don't know that it is zucchini, which my younger kids won't. LOL!!
Bowl of 2008 blackberries ready to use! These were grown in our garden.
Where I was making it... good thing you can't see the sink!
Blackberry jam starting to boil.
When I was done, I had 9 pints of Apricot Surprise Jam & 15 pints of Blackberry Jam
Are you impressed? My father-in-law was!
