--- Quote from: Twispriver on May 18, 2025, 03:52:49 PM ---My first canning project of the year is in the books - Rhubarb Pie Filling It takes two pints to make a pie, but we rarely use if for that. Mostly it goes on as topping for pancakes, french toast and ice cream and it is great filling for the puff pastry tarts that my wife makes for the holidays. Feel free to add your projects, pictures and recipes to the thread. --- End quote --- Ok Twisp you know the drill, we need a recipe for that.🤣 I’ve picked ours three times already, I give it to 5B’s bakery in Concrete for trade in goods. But I’d like to try this. |

Here it is 6 quarts of peeled and chopped fruit separated into two large bowls In a large stock pot mix: 9 1/2 cups of water 7 cups of sugar 2 cups of Clear-Jel cook-type corn starch (I source this from Amazon) 1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg Set aside 1/2 cup of lemon juice Heat the ingredients in the stock pot, stirring constantly until it thickens and begins to bubble - add the lemon juice, stir it in and remove from heat Divide the syrup mixture evenly between the two bowls of fruit and mix well Fill jars, tighten lids and hot water bath cook for 30 minutes I have used the same recipe with apples, peaches and all manner of berries and it's good every time |

I was pretty busy last week over the long weekend. Ten plus cases of jam and three cases of pie filling done with strawberries and rhubarb, raspberries, tayberries, huckleberries and cherries. The cherries are from a tree on our farm that are smaller than what you would get in the store but very firm and sweet. This tree blooms so early that we rarely get any fruit because it is usually too cold for the bees to be out pollinating but it was pretty full of fruit this year. I still have lots of blueberries and blackberries to process later but I'll be switching to produce for my next projects. |

I was going to can some jam but we open our cherry tree to the neighbors and one of them brought over some jam in return so we made cobbler instead. What jam recipe did you use? I have about 5 gallons of cherries in the freezer buying me time to figure out what to do with them. I would like to find a low or reasonable sugar use for a bunch of cherries. |
