This girl is literally the human representation of the phrase, "Go big or go home." I love it!
She's awesome and explains so good!! I just love all her videos!
Agreed! That’s why I love her! There’s no project too big for her.
LOL. She goes big and then doubles the recipe! LOL
@@shirleywagner1380 p loop we😊😊😊😊😊p
I guess so are the rest of us trying to do the same thing then 😅
I would rather get homemade gifts over other stuff! Great job!
I totally agree! Thanks!
I would like them but worry about people who may not practice safe canning.
Time and love are the greatest gifts.
OMG!! I was always so intimidated to try canning but I finally bought a water bath canning kit and made strawberry preserves this weekend with fresh strawberries I picked from a local farm. I made a lower sugar recipe and this was a HUGE hit and so much fun!!! You really can taste your berries and its not too sweet. My next venture is peach and apricot preserves. Thank you Becky!
You go girl! I am doing the last of my frozen berries I picked I hope it turns out good lol I took a cup of each of my frozen berries, straw berries, blue berries, black berries, raspberries then added 1/2 cup of each to make my 6 cups , had no pectin but I did have strawberry jello so doing that along with sugar… taste great so I pray it does thicken
Even though I don’t garden or can food I find your videos so interesting and pleasant to watch. Thanks for all the work you put on the videos! I’ve been binge watching them! 😀
Awesome! Thank you!
Oh you should definitely start a garden even if its just a couple plants! It's so fun and satisfying!
I'm sooo happy I found you. I never found somebody so close to what I want with my garden and house, as in a lifestyle! (the garden, the pantry, the soap, tea and also gifts) I'm really happy I found you and we are the same age!!! Never expected that, you have so much knowlegde and I can learn so much of you. Thank you for sharing. Ow and can I say I love your personality!!! You are doing great. Lots of love from the Netherlands
thank you so much! i love what i do! welcome to the community!
@@luciencastie991 hello Lucien, I didnt see your reaction until now. 😇
@@luciencastie991 hello Lucien, thank you for your response, now I know where to look😉 Im doing great thanks for asking. How are you doing?
@@luciencastie991 you're welcome. I'm still from the Netherlands 😉 what about you?
I love this video! One suggestion: maybe when you can something like jam or relish, and you have a bit extra you put in the fridge, perhaps put a little clip at the end, showing you spreading it on toast or just showing the consistency, and giving it a taste. It ups the satisfaction for the viewer to really see the end product in action. Of course this won't work when you have a major canning day with multiple recipes, but at the end of this video I kept thinking "I wonder what it looks like fully jelled? I wonder if she was satisfied with the flavor?"
Keep making great content!
I agree
That looks delicious! Just a tip I’ve been doing for years. I use my turkey roasting pans to process my jelly. I can fit 11 jars at once. I’ve never had a problem with them not sealing I use them right on the top of the stove with the lid on some people have a problem because the water doesn’t cover the top of the jar by 2 inches, but I’ve not had a problem with it. just what I do, my kitchen my kitchen my rules. 😉☺️
Everything you make looks so delicious. I wish I had half your energy. I would definitely be interested in a homemade ranch powder recipe as I love to give homemade food gifts as well.
If I make it I will make a video! Trust me sometimes I just sit on my Butt :)
Going to have to try this. BTW, you probably already know this, but if you soak your strawberries in a bath of water with a little vinegar, then rinse, and let dry, they will last a week or 2 in the fridge without molding. Love watching your videos- thank you for sharing. :)
That's a great idea! I'll have to give that a try! :)
Thank you I did not know that!
Awesome bonus seeing the egg tray in action!
I'm loving it!
Becky, I am so glad you showed up in my recommendations. I subbed. I have been enjoying your content and your energy! I have so many health issues, I no longer work; I remain amazed you work AND food prep full-time. I enjoy canning, when my fatigue allows me, and I give my jellies and jams as gifts.
I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos! :)
Hello. Lisa
@Lisa Huther....you sound just like me! I have a bad back so l am limited on when l can do things.l just found this channel and subbed as she is just a firecracker full of great info lol!
Who knew rolling boil is also known as roiling boil 😃
verb
gerund or present participle: roiling
1.
LITERARY
make (a liquid) turbid or muddy by disturbing the sediment.
"winds roil these waters"
2.
US
make (someone) annoyed or irritated.
Loved watching this and when Becky mentioned pancakes and french toast I could have killed for that strawberry 🍓 jam. ❤️🔥❤️
I came to the comments to ask about "roiling" as opposed to "rolling". I've never heard of roiling boil, only rolling boil.
I kept saying rolling too! Thanks for the clarification
Totally agree with something to balance all the sugar... I use a tablespoon or so (depending on how large the batch is) of lemon juice
I'm going to do this recipe. When you make it yourself, it taste way better, plus I also love giving them as gifts. Thank you Becky. ❤
Okay!!! I’ve watched this 6 times and I’m doing it tonight!! My first ever canning and jam cooking session!! I’m prepared and I’m so happy I found your video to give me some confidence:)
I love the way you say rolling boil. It sounds so royal, that and onions
Haha I was I thought that’s how it was said lol
Great tutorial. Thank you for sharing.
Look forward to seeing and learning more. Love that you gift homemade canned items!
I used your recipe today, picked up a flat of strawberries from my local farm stand, they look so good, tasted the spoon, and so glad I followed your low sugar recipe, didn't need all that extra sugar. Thank you, definitely a keeper.
Have you ever made Jelly/Jam from Plums? I make plum jelly and oh my goodness is it amazing. I make about 30 jars every year for our family and to give away. Not only does it taste amazing but the color is so beautiful. Our son lives out of state and when he comes home, he always asks for a pint or two of the plum jelly to take with him.
I haven't but i have a plum tree and I didn't get enough plums last year to make any jam or jelly but I think I should this year!
Plum jam sounds so good. I never have had that but it makes me want to track down some plums and give it a try
I have never commented before but really felt that I needed to say that you are the only person who has actually described what a rolling boil is, I am 74, living in the uk and make a lot of jam but never actually knew what rolling boil meant (my husband's favourite is Rhubarb and vanilla) so thank you I absolutely love all your videos.
Vanilla Jam?? That sounds yummy! Do you have a recipe?
Looks delicious! I don't bath the jars.
I fill the jar with boiling jam, I clean the rim and close with the lid, then I turn the jar upside down and let it cool completely. I use simple lids, even recycled ones.
I just canned my first jelly! Made from wild picked mustang grapes. You make it less intimidating than others, so you helped me take the plunge. Loved it and will def be making more!
Thank you for all your hard work and especially for showing us tips and tricks of canning.
You are so welcome :)
Been enjoying your channel! My mother in law makes strawberry jam but she lives in another state. My husband misses it so much, I may have to give it a shot myself.
I love strawberry rhubarb! My aunt makes strawberry rhubarb pie and I haven't had it in years. Makes me want some!!
Thanks, Becky!! I can't wait to try this recipe! Thanks for the low sugar! That is a fabulous idea!!
I made this today and it is seriously the best strawberry jam I have ever had! I used to love pear butter best, but this is my new favorite. Thank you!
I love how easy you make everything ,it's beautiful ❤️
I made this this past weekend, thanks Becky… I’m soooo proud
I love home made gifts, honestly that's where the love is.
This gal is so cool! I love how she explains canning..she makes it look easy.
Someone may have already left this tip, sorry if it is a repeat. The dark stuff on the bottom of your enamel coated dutch ovens can easily be completely removed with a paste of baking soda and white vinegar. Mine looked just like your for years until I discovered this tip.
I’ve used dishwasher tab in 3” hot water sat in and it came off like new
I just made this and it turned out amazing! Thank you for sharing, Becky!! 🎉
Hi Becky, you make it look so easy. I'm gonna have to try the lower sugar recipe. I made peach jam last month and it's really sugary. And plus putting the pink salt it in,great idea
Thank you
Love&Light 🍓
Thank you so much for this video and recipe! I made jam and canned it this past weekend..My first time ever doing either of those things and it went great and tastes amazing! We used all strawberries grown in our own garden. Thank you again!
Excellent!!! Everything you make looks so delicious
This recipe is perfect, just made some today..better than my old low sugar one..
Thank you!
Oh good! It's our favorite
BECKY!!!!! If you really love the flavor of the real fresh strawberries in your jam...then don't make cooked jam!!! You should make freezer jam!!! Find the recipe in the Sure Jell box. You still put it in jars but don't have to can it...just put your jars in the freezer. It is quicker, easier and tastes so much better!! It's like eating them right out of the garden!! Love ya...Becky Jones in NC
And you can cut the sugar even more, tastes like bright fresh berries instead of tooth tingling sweetness!
But then it's taking up valuable freezer space. I could see this being a good option for small amounts but not for large batches like this and long term storage
Thank you for that bit at the beginning where you show us putting on your apron! I'm sewing an apron right now and couldn't decide how to do the straps but I'm going to do a variation of the kind on yours. So thank you loads!
The jam looks so good. I never canned. You inspire me to try it😋
You should! But be warned you will become addicted!
Watching you make strawberry Rhubarb preserves has me salavating!! I can't find it in Whole Foods & I love it ! Sadly hubby doesn't like rhubarb at all, strawberry🍓 he loves.
I've had double wrist surgery, so I can't do a lot if the things I used to anymore. I wish I lived closer to you, I'd buy some of your preserves.
You'd have a booming cottage industry! 😇🥰 Awesome job Becky!!
Loving the videos from New Zealand making me think about a lot of things. Thanks for the inspiration to make bigger batches of things.
Canned your recipe as my very first thing ever! Flippin Delicious! AND all my seals popped!!! Tysvm
I also love using the low sugar recipe for the same reason...more fruit flavor! You can make a delicious variation on this recipe by simply adding a minced habanero pepper and the zest and juice of one orange to a double batch of jam. AMAZING flavor!! It pairs really well with cream chease and crackers. It make really great gifts also. You're awesome, keep up the good work ❣
Great tip! sweet and spicy is so good.
Just made this and it came out perfect!! ❤️
I do 1 measure strawberries to half measure sugar and that's it, no pectin, salt or anything else, I add vanilla beans if I have them and just cook on low to medium heat, stir and remove foam- it takes longer but you get the best strawberry jam ever. I don't know why complicate things. I wash my jars and put them in the oven to disinfect and put hot jam in hot jars.
Love that!
@@AcreHomestead I forgot - clean the strawberries and put the sugar in and leave it till the sugar melts, you can leave it over night, and you don't need to cut or smash the fruit, it falls apart while cooking and you get small pieces intact. What I've learned watching my mom and grandma is how to make my life easy, so I do small batches, and I put it on the stove on Sunday morning, you don't have to stir it like when its on high heat and the whole house smells amazing :) I know its done when i put spoonful on the plate let it cool, tilt and if it wrinkles while moving it's done. Same process for plums ( I always add cinnamon), but for apricots you want it hot and fast so it doesn't change color. Hope this helps :)
Just made this and it was a success! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and practical processing🥰
Love strawberry jam! I used to skim these phone off even tho I used some butter! I only did this because my children loved it on biscuits!
Wow that's a great idea!
I agree, this is definitely the best low sugar strawberry jam recipe.
I have watched several of your videos it is so nice to see a young girl cooking. Not just cooking but cooking from scratch. Most girls are not interested in that. I have been cooking from scratch for my family for years I am 63 years old. You keep it going. YOU ROCK.
So inspirational. Jam looks amazing! 😃
Love that top, so glad you kept it.
Yes! Thank you!
Yum love strawberry jam
Homemade pasta is also a rare treat for many people and an excellent gift.
Yes! I love gifting pasta
i love the egg rack on the back counter....so cool!!
Amazing canning session!!
Thanks!
I made this today and it came out absolutely perfect!! Thanks for the great tutorial
Yay!!! Thank you for letting me know :)
Hello
I made my first strawberry jam today! 😊 I planted ten strawberry plants in my front yard and they've been producing quite well! It's a small batch compared to yours, but I'm so happy! I've got 2 small and 2 normal sized jars and I can't wait for them to cool down 🤭. Thank you for showing us how you do it! I never knew about the butter trick. I should've used it because the pot boiled over while I turned my back and cleaned up a bit 😅
You are such a Blessing. May GOD Bless you and your Family.
I love Strawberry jam I use the same recipe except I put mine in the freezer. Delicious 😋
I just started making jam this year and found it too sweet, so this is really useful thanks.
I hope you love it!
Just tried this recipe for the first time and it’s delicious!! Please share a recipe for canning peaches.
I know how to can jam because we made lots of jam when I was younger. Now i have a house full of kids so i don't have time to make jam but i pick all the berries from our yard we have raspberries, blueberries, strawberries that I grow but we live in Tennessee and we have wild blackberries everywhere so I pick tons of Blackberries and my mom picks all the berries in her yard she make a quadruple berry jam using all the berries I give her it's enough to feed 3 households for the year. I can the tomato sauce and my mom gives me all the extra tomatoes and peppers from her garden plus all the extras from my garden so I make all the sauce and she makes all the jam.
That is so awesome! I'm the only one in my family that cans. I wish I could share the love like that
Thanks for making amazing content! I'm learning so much from you 🥰
I followed your recipe and my jam came out wonderfully sweet and with a creamy texture. Thank you!
Love your channel! Thanks for sharing
Oh yay! I’m glad you are enjoy it! I’m glad you are here :)
Hello. Toyhunter
Hey Becky I’ve been making jams, preserves, jellies and chutney for about 50 years. I hope you don’t mind my telling you but the boiling you refer to is a “rolling” boil and not roiling! Please don’t take offence to my comment is not meant to be mean.
Royaling boil.. so cute!!
This is freaking great content, thank you for putting it out there!
Thank you!!
Rather than adding bought pectin you can just add half a lemon and some apple and it will give you enough natural pectin, that’s what I do and it works well. I also don’t “can them” I just put them in a sterilised jar and turn them upside down, that’s how I’ve always done it. Maybe it’s because I’m English, maybe we do it differently lol 🤷🏼♀️
My Mom always did her tomatoes that way. She called it “open kettle”. She cooked the tomatoes down a bit, not much but they boiled for a little bit, then they went from the boiling kettle into sterilized jars, put on a lid and turned them upside down also! They we delicious. She never made jam. Just tomatoes and lots of pickles.🤣
I'll have to give that a try some time. Thanks!
Shredded apple ¿ or just the peels ¿
@@bintlooda I usually put chunky peel strips and then remove them before I jar, but if you want to add Apple to your jam as well I guess it will dissolve in and also provide pectin. I also will put half or a whole lemon cut in to segments in the jam because citrus fruits are very high in pectin, then remove them before jarring. 😊
Exactly what I do down under!
Yum!! Thanks for the recipe with less sugar I also love the taste of the fruit and prefer less sugar
You will LOVE it! It's soo good.
Hello
Looks amazing 😻
I make strawberry jam here in Mississippi when the strawberries are brought to our local market. I make the freezer jam which is so good.
Soooo OBSESSED with this Jam by the way! It's so delicious 😋 😍!!
Yummy!! Blueberry curd is yummy to!
So good! I will have to try that!
Thank you for sharing all the stuff you do! I have watched many videos on this you are very detailed. I’ve never tried it myself canning. But it’s something I might incorporate one day.
Be careful If you start you won’t stop
@@AcreHomestead if I watch enough of your videos I wanna start with pasta but I get it! It’s fun 🙌🏻❤️😂
@@feliciaalbanese3338 Hello. Felicia
l love this reecipe. First time making jam and it turned out wonderful. Thank you for sharing!
I just wanted to comment on this shirt, I love it! It brightens your face beautifully, and the fit is perfect! Much love! 🙏♥️
Thank you so much for the tutorial and demonstration
You are so welcome!
You make it looks so easy! I've always wanted to try making jam!
You can do it!!
During Canning Season I literally need more countertop, 2 stoves and 2 sinks. 🥰🥰🥰
That was awesome! I usually do 1kilo strawberry with 300gr sugar (but I am from Serbia & our berrys are really sweet), just simmer it on low for a little longer.
Sounds great!
I love this recipe I keep making more.
♥️ strawberry jam
You definitely know cooking, newbies might not be able to follow along but I really like your blog.
Hello. Sharon
Thank you, success!!
I love pancakes with jam! I have even used fruit cocktail! I prefer them over syrup.
Same here!
Picked up half a flat of strawberries and am going to make this today!
You have inspired me to try this! Thank you!
Awesome!
Making 6 mixed berry jam today, I gave jams for Christmas presents I am no longer buying gifts than no one remembers 2 years later who gave it or even if they used it but everyone remembers your home done preserves 😁
My MIL taught me to make big batches of jam using my Turkey roaster. Use two burners and place the roaster over both burners. 🥰
Great idea!
➡️.. I KNOW.. im chatty... but we do learn from each other especially for me. In the commwnts... enjoying your vids hun.. ☺
I've always had a bit of trouble w jellies.. I will be making JAMS from now on...
Yet another TIP.. I put a about half a bag of Magneium ,, urmm. EPSOM SALTS on all my fruit trees... as this makes the fruit bigger and sweeter also... my dad taught me this but he use a whole box of table salt. It replenishes minerals in the soil from normal delpetion and or erosions.. we had HUGE fig trees and giant sized fruit on it.. we did this every year.. and never caught diseases.. like. Never..
That looks so yummy.... Loved the video.💜💜💜💜
You make the best videos! I'm have a bunch of gifted strawberries and peaches to process today!
Awesome and absolutely yummy
The 1sr time I saw that huge stainless steel bowl, it was love at 1st sight! 😂😂😂 I so want to have a few of those! They would be so practical for my baking! 😆😆😆
I love it!
this is great Becky love home made Jam xxx
Made this last night- DELISH! I added a handful of blueberries and it was fantastic!
sounds delicious! :)
thank you.
