Our strawberries are coming on strong and the raspberries are abundant for the first time since we planted them two years ago. I have experimented with many different pectin products and this, dear reader, is my favorite. Don’t you just love the fresh, sassy taste of freezer jam? What I love about Ball’s Fruit Jell is its low proportion of sugar to fruit: 1 1/2 cups sugar to 4 cups fruit. That’s the best I’ve found so far. One small spoonful of jam mixed into a dish of plain yogurt….heaven! It’s on sale this week for 99 cents. (doing cartwheels in my mind…)
Now here’s where I can perhaps learn from you. I done very little canning and preserving. Once I made fig preserves, but that’s about it.

PS My breakfast was fresh Georgia peaches with cottage cheese. Yum!
I will have to look for that! I missed the strawberries here this year but didn’t worry too much because the freezer jam recipe I have calls for wayyy too much sugar. Yours sounds much better! I love strawberry freezer jam. It tastes just like a fresh-picked strawberry.Yogurt. Yum. That’s one of the few things I miss on this fat flush. Well, in a few weeks…..Blessings,Sandy
