  • Plum jam without pectin is easy to make. Plum jam is simple and easy. Our plum jam recipe has only two ingredients: plums and sugar!
    We show you the easy old fashioned way how to make and can plum jam without pectin. It's very easy to make and we show how to can blackberry jam in mason jars with NO WATERBATH. Enjoy the bounty of summer plums even during the winter!
    We use plum jam on homemade southern biscuits and toast for breakfast. I have even used plum jam to make plum vinaigrette salad dressing.
    Canning jam is a big part of the summer at most homesteads. Eating this plum jam is a pleasure.

    Just tried and made delicious jam. Thanks! Can I double the recipe? Would the sugar amount be the same?

    • @useful.knowledge
      @useful.knowledge  11 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Hi. Thanks!! Yes, I think you can double it. I’ll state the obvious…just make sure you have a big enough pot and work quickly when placing the jam in the jars. To make certain the jam doesn’t cool down, I would recommend turn the eye to low instead of all the way off while you start filling the jars. When you get half of them filled, you can turn the eye off and finish filling the rest.

    I gathered inspiration from your jam videos to make my own batch. I used the recipe from your peach jam video and your cold plate technique from this video to make a Strawberry Peach jam. I used equal parts of crushed strawberry and crushed peaches. I used that amount of sugar as well and boiled it for a good amount of time until it was thick-ish on a cold plate (i thought it was thick enough at the moment) . Although I believe I didn't get it hot enough as it didn't set up completely when cooled. I wish I had a candy thermometer to check its temp while cooking as that might have helped. Maybe you have to heat it longer with strawberry. Anyway, the flavor turned out amazing. You can taste the strawberry more than the peach but it's not by much. Highly suggest that combo next time as it's not a heard of flavor. I'd definitely make it again.
    Secondly, I tried your open kettle method for the first time and I have to say I'm converted to it now. It's so much easier than spending an hour heating a pot of water and then waiting another half hour to get the jars processed.
    Edit: after re-discovering your video on strawberry jam I realize now I just didn't boiled it long enough. I boiled it maybe for a half hour once it started to boil.

    • @useful.knowledge
      @useful.knowledge  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi. I don’t water bath. I use the open kettle method that I was taught as a child. It was the recommended method for acidic items such as jams, jellies, and tomatoes until water bath became recommended. I’ve used it my entire life and honestly never lose a jar.

    Normally the sugar to fruit is 1 to 1…is this different because of the plum sugar content or…?

    • @useful.knowledge
      @useful.knowledge  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Excellent question. If I had mashed up the plums, I would have about 4 cups. That’s why the recipe goes for 4 cups sugar.

    Most recipes add lemon juice ? why did you not use lemon juice? I'm a newbie to canning.

    • @useful.knowledge
      @useful.knowledge  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi. The plums are plenty acidic so lemon juice is not required. Some folks just like them tart.

  • @leevons_home_vids
    @leevons_home_vids ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Whenever I make jam it always swells up a ton in the pot and sometimes I have to pull it off the heat to let it settle down and turn the temp way down on the stove to keep it from over flowing. Do you have any tricks to keep it from doing that or is that something that's just inevitable?

    • @useful.knowledge
      @useful.knowledge  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi. That does happen sometimes to me even though I’ve been canning for a long time. Once it gets to boiling, I start backing off the heat especially in a heavy pot like my porcelain cast iron because it holds so much heat over a thin stainless pot. The goal is to get it to boiling without passing the sweet spot.

      Open kettle is the predecessor to water bath. In my experience, they last at least 12-18 months in the pantry. Most of mine are eaten by then. With that said, I have some tomatoes that are 5 years old right now with not issues.
