We the canning of the pear preserves is now complete - it is a little looser than I would like so it is now officially an "English Style" preserve to be used on ice cream and pancakes. It has a beautiful pinkish orange color that I was not expecting.

My 5.5 lbs of fruit became 2 lbs of fruit after pealing and coring and cutting and a few of the pears were just to ripe to can and were eaten.

I noticed Costco had Pears $5.00 per flat for those that don’t access to Red’s orchard...

That looks yummy.

I’ve read that some jellies and preserves take up to two weeks to set. They may turn out fine. They sure look beautiful.

Your preserves look wonderful! The color is truly amazing! A similar thing occurred to me once when I was making peach jam. Never figured it out but it didn’t affect the taste one bit. Good job!

Those jars look so delicious. I could almost taste them thru the monitor and the jar glass ~ YUM!
