Making Jam with Local Honey

If you like making jams and jellies but wondered if you could make them with local honey instead of all that refined sugar, the answer is YES.

Pomona's Universal Pectin allows you to do this by using a unique pectin extracted from citrus peel. Its jelling power is activated by calcium, not sugar content. I discovered this pectin a few years ago and have had great success with it.

The pectin comes with detailed instructions for its use and recipes for both cooked and no-cook jams and cooked jellies including one for Apple Cider Jelly that simply uses boiled down cider and apple cider. The results are delicious. Can you imagine how good a peach and honey jam or blackberrry and honey jelly would be?

With fruit season just starting to come around (Our strawberries are blossoming beautifully and I'm hoping for a great harvest this year.), this is a good product to have on hand for those upcoming jam sessions.

I am definitely going to try that although I will have to buy it from the US as I live in England!!
Many thanks for great product info!

I am looking for a Blueberry Jam recipe that uses honey rather than sugar. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you very much.
