Did you ever use Pomona’s Universal pectin?

You can make large batches. I would do 12 cups of blueberries, 4 C sugar, some cinnamon, and cook it down.

It made 7 pints of jam, just enough to fit a canner. And it all set beautifully.

You can also to sugar free.

I’ve heard of that pectin before. The two recipes I’ll be using for Raspberry and Blueberry Jam don’t require any pectin, but a longer cook-down time, which is fine with me. Then they’ll be water-bath canned.

I’ll also do a Raspberry Pie with a French Crumble top to put in the freezer for baking at a later date. Yummy!

Neighbor wants everything shelf-stable; she doesn’t have a lot of freezer space.
