I have 1 apricot tree in my back yard and just love apricots!
Apricot pineapple jam is one of my favorites.
I bought a nice long handled silicone spoon for this and it works great, less noise. I found it at a restaurant supply store. I like those places, never leave without finding some treasure there.
I learned what a 1:1 ratio is today, never knew it included the pectin & lemon juice also in it.
I use a big soup pot also with jam, it keeps my stove cleaner.
Sometimes I wear long sleeves also so my arms don’t get burned with spatters from jam. Yes jam does look beautiful through the jars! Like jewels found in the earth.
This is my favorite jam !!! Thank you for sharing!
