I've got a delicious Granny recipe to share with you all today, only it's not technically a Granny recipe. It came from Granny's recipe box, but the recipe itself is from Marie Sipe. So, thank you to Marie for this delightfully simple to make jam recipe.
You will need:
- 5 cups chopped rhubarb
- 4 cups sugar
- 3 ounce box of strawberry Jello
Combine the rhubarb and the sugar in a large bowl and allow to sit in the fridge overnight. The rhubarb will release some of its water during this time.
The next day, pour the sugar and rhubarb into a pot and heat until the rhubarb begins to get tender. Stir in the jello, pour into jars, and seal them up!
It's really as simple as that- and oh, so yummy!
Ah making homemade jam is on my summer to do list this year!!! Might have to try this one out :)
ReplyDeleteChelsea, this is definitely the one to start with- it is SO easy! And if you want a jam that's a little less sweet, you can add more rhubarb, add less sugar, or both!
DeleteHomemade strawberry jam is yummy. I enjoy them fresh in a bowl, on my cereal or ice cream, in a frosty smoothy or in a pie. Satish Kartan

ReplyDeleteJust taking part in this process, I feel a bond back through the centuries with all the women, who preserved, jammed, pickled, prolonging the goodness and abundance of the seasonal produce to last the whole year through.
