...EG, ack I always spit out those watermelon seeds.<br /><br />prue, plum jam sounds so good. Hmm I've never tried going to the end of a market and trying to buy a box. Next year I really want to try strawberry rhubarb jam. I think that one would be so good.<br /><br />Dan, I've never made my strawberry jam seedless. Those seeds don't bother me like the raspberry ones do. Wow, 16 cups is a lot. I wouldn't know what to do with it all. As it is I made my raspberry jelly very soft set so if I heat it up it will liquefy and I can use it as syrup.<br /><br />kitsapFG, which reminds me it is the start of apple season. I really want to make some apple butter. Yum. Plum butter sounds delicious.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-72584168608234972892009-09-03T00:35:39.384-04:002009-09-03T00:35:39.384-04:00I am seed eater!

I have blackberry and raspberry jam still left from last year and that combined this this year's plum jam and butter is mroe than enough until next year. However, the blackberries are beautiful this year, so I may have to just freeze them whole so as not to waste their wonderfulness. <br /><br />The jam looks delicious!kitsapFGhttp://www.modernvictorygarden.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-17487345652065728942009-09-02T22:19:08.578-04:002009-09-02T22:19:08.578-04:00Your jam looks great.

I made 16 cups of raspberry jelly last year so needless to say we still have alot left. You should get yourself a jelly bag. I use one, you just put the juice in, let it hang and then just rinse out the seeds. If you sow I think my Mom has a pattern for making one that I can send you.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07743102355360873845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-4863694585903950142009-09-02T19:30:26.404-04:002009-09-02T19:30:26.404-04:00Oh wow that Jam looks so tasty.

Of course the produce doesn't come from my balcony garden, but the markets are handy when it come to buying in bulk (particularly if you head in right before closing time you can usually get a bargain on a box of soft fruit, though the crowds are horrible.) Enjoy the jam!!!PJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12210701278846436069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-7665813980971038602009-09-02T16:43:23.428-04:002009-09-02T16:43:23.428-04:00I just leave the seeds in the blackberry jam I mak...I just leave the seeds in the blackberry jam I make each year, and have always eaten it that way. As a matter of fact, when I eat watermelon - I eat seeds and all! Ha!

They wanted appetizers and what makes better appetizers than cream cheese, jalapeno jam and fresh baked bread?

It is on the edge, but just fine.<br /><br />Annie's Granny, well fall is the best time to plant those raspberries. Maybe next year you will have a nice crop.<br /><br />Lzyjo, it isn't all that hard to do. I've yet to have a jam not gel for me. Then again I've always used added pectin to make sure. <br /><br />June, on Allrecipes at:<br />http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Raspberry-Jalapeno-Jelly/Detail.aspx<br />I used red peppers instead and used Pomona's Pectin (1 1/2t). I didn't want to have to cook it long so this year I switched to Pomona's. I'll see how it works.<br /><br />theconservativegardener, raspberries are the only ones that I strain the seeds out. I just can't stand raspberry seeds. They get caught in my teeth. Ick. I do wish I did like them because I like to feel the fruit in jams.Daphne Gouldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17305049560953735881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-81382059810487559972009-09-02T16:08:23.909-04:002009-09-02T16:08:23.909-04:00Aah, raspberry seeds are the worst.

Blackberry seeds aren't far behind. You jam looks delicious and I don't really eat much jam anymore. I do like pepper jam though, it's great with cheese.Michellehttp://fromseedtotable.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-56932634550554614162009-09-02T15:51:06.366-04:002009-09-02T15:51:06.366-04:00I LOVE seeds in my jelly!I LOVE seeds in my jelly!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3698134075709295915.post-11967683378394322812009-09-02T15:49:49.052-04:002009-09-02T15:49:49.052-04:00Oh, Daphne!
