This year was a first for me. I've canned foods before. Tomatoes, beans, berries, and meats but I've honestly never, never ever, made jam before. Which is very sad. That changed a couple weeks ago.
My girlfriend and I had stopped at a farm on the way back from a fiber festival to pick up some Honey Crisp apples. We had a couple of bruised ones but Honey Crisp apples actually hold very well and these were ginormous! The size of softballs! And soooo very juicy and crisp. Well, with so many we decided to try a jam that my girlfriend had found. This Jam right here! It smells amazing and tastes amazingly sweet. It should for how mush sugar is in it!
Well... we tried it and jarred some and it was delicious!
So my plans for today are going to be to peel the apples my future mother-in-law brought us and make another batch of jam with those and with the left overs some apple butter! I'll post an update with pictures later for you guys and maybe see about posting some of the process but I'm not so sure since I only have one set of hands!
If anyone's tried this recipe I'd love to hear your experience! Feel free to comment!
