You're an excellent teacher and I love that you always follow safe canning practices. My mother-in-law and I would can together years ago and she always called the sealing pops "the sound of satisfaction" and I would have to say I agree with that 😂 Thanks for bringing back some great memories and this looks sooo delicious ❤
We’ve got a place in the Texas hill country called Sweetberry Farm. It’s strawberry season here, and as soon as I am back home from my current deployment with work, I’m going strawberry picking! My pretty Weck jars have arrived, so I can’t wait!
Today I made my first batch of low sugar jam, 24 jars worth and when I took each batch out of the steamer and the popping became, I was so happy! Thank you for an awesome video! I'm hooked!
Just made this for the first time and I’m listening to the jars “ping” on the counter right now! Can’t wait to taste it. In the meantime, I think I’ll go get more strawberries and make a second batch.
Thank you so much for putting this video out appreciate it anytime that you can do lower sugar That's a great thing you also could put Serrano pepper in the jam if you like a little bit of a kick thank you so much for sharing this recipe and you have a wonderful day 😄
Thank you for this video. I am making it tomorrow with my two college aged granddaughters. I have a lot of fresh frozen strawberries in my freezer that I need to do something with. Perfect timing on this recipe. Love your videos.
Check out Lehman’s in Ohio,a wonderful place as you can find almost anything imaginable,and it’s a great place,Keep more videos 🥫🐝coming,lovin’it,Denny😊
I love your channel and I am learning so much. I have been making jelly in my new steam canner and since I live at sea level, I process for 10 min and leave the jars 5 min. With the heat off before taking them out of the canner. I just saw where RoseRed Homestead says if you have to steam bath for 10 min. Or less you have to sterilize your jars. Now I wonder if my jams are safe. I’m totally confused. I followed Oregon State Extension Dept. 2021 revised steam canning instructions.
She’s wrong. If you process for LESS than 10 minutes you have to sterilize your jars. If you process for 10 minutes or more you do not have to. nchfp.uga.edu/how/can_01/sterile_jars.html#:~:text=To%20sterilize%20empty%20jars%2C%20put,each%20additional%201%2C000%20ft.%20elevation.
Love the idea of low sugar recipes. A few questions: 1. Can you not use any sugar with the no sugar/low sugar pectin as a diabetic? 2. Where are you finding those lovely jars?
Hi Carol, I'm so grateful you answer comments. ⁉️⁉️QUESTION⁉️⁉️⁉️ alit if people.. rogue canners??? are canning strawberries. Aren't they low acid?? Is this safe???
Frances Shook oh wow! Yes, we had a blast picking. They are lovely people. They actually have a strawberry festival there. 😊. We enjoy Wooster ... it’s a small world
Hi! Our freezer is full of a surplus of strawberries from the festival in March. Would you can these or will they have a freezer burn taste. Help. Thanks.
Hello, your right there’s ,a lot of videos on canning jam but with lots of sugar. What I’m wondering if you know the answer to my question ,is it possible to can and safe with monk fruit or stevia or erythritol. I’ve been trying to can jams and sweet zucchini relish. There no recipe for it anywhere .thank you for your videos.
Ana Tedesco yes, you may use a sugar substitute that is measured cup for cup instead of sugar in canning. On the label of the Ball pectin I used it does state you may use a sugar substitute. Here is an article on the subject 😊 www.canr.msu.edu/news/home_canning_without_sugar
Carol I enjoy your channel. Thank you! I made this low sugar strawberry jam but added 3 jalapeños and did not add any lemon juice. What are your thoughts as to is it safe to consume. I water bathed it for 25 minutes. TIA
Carol your videos are awesome, do I have to use pectin or can I omit it? If I need to use it can I use pectin you get at the store? Thank you so much 💓
im confused on how your canning is different than water bath canning? the pot you currently have it is isn't under pressure so isn't it just water bathing? im trying to learn canning and water bathing currently thanks!
Carol, where did you find the amounts for fruit to pectin? I bought the low sugar like yours, but, I couldn't find any chart! So glad I had your recipe or I wouldn't have been able to make it yesterday..so good. I would like to make blueberry, need to fine ratios😳 BTW..I used my steam canner I just got from Amazon, (they only carry the Harvest brand), I had to wait to make jam until it came, so I froze 8qts of strawberries and made my 1st batch yesterday, used the fluted jars❤️
Thank you ...I had never heard of the steam canner with a gage so I read the newest review on Amazon and the woman stated that she believed the gage is not accurate ....Not sure if I would totally trust it based off her reply..I wouldn’t want to make my family sick.
Brenda Neer I wouldn’t trust most of what is on Amazon or anyone else for that matter unless you know their credentials and experience . I always do my research for myself. You can easily confirm it is working properly by noting a steady stream of steam coming from the vent holes and looking into the glass lid to confirm the water at the bottom is boiling. I’ve used my steam canner a lot and I have no reservations about doing so. Here are a few links to put your mind at ease 😊. anrcatalog.ucanr.edu/pdf/8573.pdf fyi.extension.wisc.edu/safefood/2017/10/24/safe-preserving-using-a-steam-canner/?ss_redir=1
I have used the same canner for 4 years now and no problems. It’s so much easier than water bath canning and using all that water. As long as you use the gauge as it is supposed to be used it is perfectly fine.
@@sandysmith1286 ~Thanks..I was actually kind of making a joke..obviously if it’s boiling you can see it without having the gage..I have the Ball electric water bath canner and a steam canner both brand new still in their boxes..I know shouldn’t have bought them if they aren’t going to be used..I just use the big old blue speckled plain Jane water bath pot that’s been around forever..
At beginning of each year U should put 4 jars of water in this & time how long it takes to get in green go zone so u know how long it takes the steamer to get to correct steamtemp
There seems to be some controversy about screwing on the ring while doing a waterbath. One video I watched the demonstrator said not to use the rings until the waterbath is complete and the jars have cooled. As you noted, you are steam bathing and is there a difference? Any thoughts?
Margaret Cooper hi! There is no difference in procedure for water bath and steam canning. The rings are there to hold the lid in place until it seals. I don’t know how the lid would stay on during the canning process if you didn’t have the ring in place. And the rings should be removed after your jars have cooled and sat for 12-24 hours. I can’t speak for others. There’s a lot of wrong information out there. I follow all the guidelines set forth by the USDA. You can confirm anything I post on the National Center for Home Food Preservation website nchfp.uga.edu/ 😊
I'm a tad worried because your jars were literally beginning to seal as you took them out. My water bath jars I did didn't seal for close to 40 minutes. Should I be worried why they took so long?
I made this jam using this exact recipe. It turned out perfect except I would have liked it a little sweeter after using only the 2 cups of sugar per the recipe. The only change I made was I used frozen strawberries that I had in my freezer. Being a new canner and after seeing other videos of people using lemon juice I am a bit worried that maybe I will poison my family since I used the frozen instead of fresh. I did notice however that the others who used lemon juice did not use pectin but used grated apple. I just need reassurance that my jam is alright since I used frozen. I'm kind of a worry wart. I followed your measurements and instructions to a tee except for that. It looks fine and smells good and taste very good except I would have preferred a little sweeter. My granddaughters loved making this with me. Their first time.
Wilene Moss I used the information that came with the pectin. It does not call for using lemon juice for strawberry jam. And it makes no difference if fresh or frozen. You should not worry about the safety of your jam if you used the Ball Low or No Sugar Pectin 😊. And the label says jams or jellies made with this pectin are good for up to one year 💕

beautiful kitchen
Thank You !! Very easy to follow the instructions 😊 I just made it ☺️🧡 I can’t wait to spread some on my toast bread 🥯 yum 😋
Love strawberries. I go to Arnold farms here. Made strawberry kiwi jam

Thank you
Just planted my strawberries. Can't wait for next season to make jam!!😍😍😍
Thanks for the low sugar recipe. What size pot is your lodge enamel pot? Last time I cooked strawberries I had a boil over in my 5.5 pot.
Thank you for this video. I am making it tomorrow with my two college aged granddaughters. I have a lot of fresh frozen strawberries in my freezer that I need to do something with. Perfect timing on this recipe. Love your videos.

If we get anymore fresh strawberries I will try this with splenda.

Been there many times 😁
Looks delicious. Need to try this .
Low sugar is my thing. Don’t need all the sugar. I we’ll use Splenda.
can you use this recipy with blue berrys.
Yes
Thanks my friend !
Your jam looks delicious , would you recommend using the same recipe for raspberry jam?
Yes
I use Pomona Pectin! I love it!
I use Pomona’s Pectin also. Love how versatile it is.
Can I use frozen strawberries? If they are watery after thawing, would you drain that away? Thank you.

It is safe to can strawberries www.healthycanning.com/canning-strawberries

Best pectin?
It's possible or no??
I use alot if Splenda
oh my goodness my sister lives just down the road from Moreland Farms i never knew you could pick strawberries there. I used to live in Wooster

Thank you for the information of the jelly and jam but ,will it work with zucchini relish. Than you
Ana Tedesco yes, you can use it in any canning item 😊
Would I be able to freeze this jam after processing? I like to do low sugar freezer jam.
You would need to use pectin for freezer jam. I don’t believe regular or low sugar pectin will work the same
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 ok. Thanks so much. Do you have a video on low sugar freezer jam?

You can use them in canning recipes but FYI strawberries on their own don’t can well
