Doing my canning tomorrow! Very nice video, just a little tip, if you put 1/2 tsp of butter or margarine in your jam when boiling it drastically reduces the amount of foaming.
Just finished my load of 8 half pints. I’ve never canned jam before and you gave me confidence. Thank you. I doubled the recipe and used a cup and a half of sugar and it tastes AMAZING. Perfection truly. Bring on the toast.
Hi Carol, This was a great video. Your peach preserves look wonderful. I love your stove top canner. So clever with the gauge. Thank you so much for all you share. You are such a delight! Love, Mary❤️😘❤️
Mary's Nest thank you so much but I think it’s the pot calling the kettle black 😉😉. I’ve meaning to ask you, have you ever made sauerkraut with wine or beer? I want to try sauerkraut this year and the ones we enjoy the most (from the grocery) have white wine or beer as part of the ingredients. You are a respected authority on this kinda stuff for me so I was wondering your thoughts. If you already have a video on this just direct me there 😊. Love and hugs 🤗 Carol
I just made this and it is DELICIOUS. I'm literally in my kitchen waiting for the 2nd batch to finish canning. I originally planned to can peach jam and peaches slices but after I tasted, I HAD to jam the rest. THANK YOU!
Thrifty Chic Housewife Thank you. I’ve pressure canned every thing from meats to dried beans. Water bathed tomatoes and relishes. But for some reason I never tried jams and jellies lol. Now I’m hooked lol.
just watched your low sugar Peach Jam. you gave me a lot of info that I had questions about, even regarding how did I grandparents keep jars off of the bottom of pots. I have just begun to can and I love the info you have shared. I didn't realize they made that tiny size jar. thanks for sharing.
Thank you!! Nice to know that I don't have to sterilize the jars if they will be processed for more than 10 min, Also good to know about the towel on the bottom of a regular pot as a make-do canner. I've been canning for many years. Always something to learn. I'm going to try this recipe tomorrow.
I make mine the same way except I use sugar-free peach juice instead of water. It adds a little extra punch of flavor and is amazing! Happy to see someone else also teaching safe canning practices. Thanks for sharing!
Hi , I just stumbled upon your channel and loved your tutorial on peach jam and decided to try it. It turned out FANTASTIC. Do you have a recipe for blueberry jam? Thank you
Great tip about the dish towel in the bottom of a pot to can with . This will open doors for more canners .I remember mom doing that a few times .I also remember her sealing her tomato jam with melted parifin once. It did the job of sealing . How ever little shards of wax would get into the jam as well.So that was the end of that .
We just finished making this and tried it on a vanilla ice cream. It was delicious. Thank you for the instruction which was new to me as I had only make freezer jam.
You are missed! I hope and pray things are getting better for you and your family. I’ve been making some jam and wanted to visit your channel for my “Carol” fix. Much love to you. 💗
Thank you for sharing your recipe and your Victorio canner. Your technique does seem easy. When I find myself lifting my jars of jam out of their water bath and hearing that sealing ✨POP✨ , I will feel SO happy that I've finally arrived! I've heard that if a jar does not pop, it's ok but needs to be used right away rather than being stored. For someone who wants to can for life, investing in a water bath canner is worth it! Such a professional feeling too. Been wanting to get started for years but am always concerned about the cane sugar content. I'd like to use a sugar substitute, or at least half and half. I also heard that you can't make jellies without using real sugar. 🙁
Thank you for the great recipe. I was about to can a classic recipe that uses lots of sugar, but so glad I found this recipe. Do you find that the shelf life of this jam is not as long as ones used with regular pectin.? I know the jam will be eaten way before it spoils, but just wondering if you have any input on this? Thank you.
Another great one!!! Love that pectin you showed. I’m going to try and find it here where I live if not there is always amazon!! Ha ha peach jam is my fav and hubby likes strawberry!! And when we live back home we had 3 huge apricot trees so you know I made apricot jam every year. Lots of it!!! In fact I really could use a new water bath canner and I too really like your new one!! I’ll just have to see if it’s possible for me right now. 😊 thanks again!!! 💜💜
Erin Martin hi! Great question... leaving your rings on can cause a false seal. If you didn’t get a proper seal or if spoilage would occur for some reason bacteria growth will break the seal. If you have the rings attached this might not be detected. Rings are not needed to hold the lid in place after the canning process. Here is a great article on the subject www.healthycanning.com/store-your-home-canned-food-without-the-canning-rings/#why-should-you-removing-the-canning-rings-after-the-jars-are-sealed. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching 💕Carol
Hi... Love your channel:) Just subscribed 🙂 Could you please explain to me --- what deems a recipe "low sugar"? Is it the "up to a cup of sugar" & no more --- that you mentioned in the video? And if more sugar is added - can you not use the low sugar pectin (sure jell)? And (LoL) I have the lemon juice, thats in the fake, plastic lemon - is that ok to use instead of the bottled? Thanks so much for teaching - safe canning methods Thank you:)
Thanks ! Being diabetic this video helped.. I used to can a lot when I lived on the East Coast I used my basement for cool dry storage,I currently live in Arizona🙃 I’m not sure how to store them now..I would greatly appreciate any advice you have..Thanks
Hey TCH have you tried the table spoon of butter to eliminate the foam I'm just asking ? These are some thing I found in researching this yurs is a pretty good one if you could keep all that goodness I think would be best!
Carol, As you know I am a new canner. I see a lot of different types of pectin. I see, of course, regular and low sugar. But there are some many more like flex pectin and others. Can you simplify the basic ones we need?
I don’t understand why you would remove the rings? I haven’t done a lot of canning, but my Mom did, I never seen any of her jars without the rings. Thanks
Hi Carol, Do you know the solution to fixing jelly that has set too much? 🥺 I made some grape🍇jelly last year using Pomona's Pectin and it set up, way too much. It is like very solid 🌲and not easily spreadable🔪. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. 😀
Hi Carol, I just had a quick question...I noticed in this video you chose to water bath rather than steam can, was there a specific reason for this choice? Is either method acceptable for this recipe, or is it only appropriate to water bathe this one? Thank you for sharing your knowledge, new canner here soaking up all the safe canning procedures and info I can find. Thank you for being such a fantastic resource. ❤
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 Perfect! I thought I had heard you say that in another video, but couldn't recall which one so I could double check. Thank you for taking the time to respond 😊
It is recommended to remove your rings for storage as they can rust or create a false seal. So after 12-24 hours after processing I remove my rings, check my seals, wash my jars, label then store them
Thank you for getting back& one last thing, after your previous instructions, am I replacing with new rings or just cleaning/drying & using same? Sorry to be a bother, it's my first project & I want to do correctly 🥴
Will do! That is awesome! No ring! Footnote: was just in Walmart & found the last box of lids also 3 piece utensil set ( jar lifter, funnel & bubble remover/head space tool), clearance $6! Oh boy!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰. Thank you again!
Where did you get the recipe. Thank you I have the same pectin. I will be making this jam in a few days when my peaches are ready. 😊 Ball website calls for 4c of peaches, so I'm not sure what to do?
@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 I am sure you are using a safe recipe. I wrote to Ball to find out more and they gave me this link that is well documented to make a few jars or more. Really good link I'll post it here if you don't mind.
I wonder what it would taste like with honey. I am a diabetic 2 and at least honey would not be that bad. My husband is friends with his doctor and he lives near us and we gave them some of our small peaches from our tree and they made freezer jam and it tasted so good the peach flavor was definitely there. With all the sugar it doesn't taste like the fruit.
Donna Richey I’m sure honey would be delicious. But if you have really sweet peaches you could skip sweetener all together with this pectin. I love for the fruit flavor to be the star 😍
Hello I made peach jam for the first time. After processing the jars when your supposed to turn off heat and let the jars sit for 5 minuets before taking them out...well um I kinda forgot about them and they sat in the canner much longer. Oops, will the jars still seal. Is the jam ruined? Help!😱
NAME VALE no worries. It should be fine. I’ve never done that exact thing but I would think they would still seal as they cool. We’ve all made mistakes so don’t be too hard on yourself 😊
NAME VALE worst case scenario, your jars don’t seal. In that case just refrigerate the jam and you will have to eat it sooner rather than later 😉. Not necessarily a bad thing 🤷♀️. Good news is it shouldn’t be ruined.
I have a question. I have my grandmother's water bath canner with no rack. I need to can tomatoes an am using pint jars. Can I stack them 2 jars high, if I put a kitchen towel on bottom and one in between? Also how long do you normally water bath tomatoes? Thank you, have a great labor day.
coupon gal I don’t have experience canning in double layers so I can’t say how that would work, I’m sorry. Here’s a link for information on canning tomatoes. Times vary according to how you’re canning them and your altitude ohioline.osu.edu/factsheet/HYG-5336. Hope that helps 😊
Hello Carol, do you know if it is possible to make sugar free jam with Jell-O. I thought I had seen it done before, but didn't pay a lot of attention. Now that I am diabetic, I am interested.
Great video. I bought some peaches 🍑 this weekend so going to try this. Do you also have a video on raw packed peaches. If not would you consider making one?? I like how you teach do I would rather learn from you. Thanks
7459serenity thank you, what a compliment! 😍. Unfortunately I do not have a video on canning peaches yet. I had planned on doing one but by the time I got around to getting my peaches peach season was almost over and I figured no one would be interested at that point 😞. Raw packing peaches is so easy. I’d be happy to send you step by step instructions, not the same as a video I know... A couple of tips, wide mouth jars are easier to pack. Using a light syrup really lets the peach flavor shine through. Pack your peaches as tightly as possible. Fruit tends to float (I’ve tried every recommendation and mine still floats). Smaller peaches float less than larger ones. If I can help in any way don’t hesitate to ask. Best wishes for a great peach canning session and I’m sorry I don’t have a video yet. 💕Carol
Thanks for the quick reply. I've been canning/preserving for many years. I also love to ferment and dehydrate, Love to grow my own. Just discovered your channel and I've already learned more new techniques. What a wonderful resource you are .@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231
i have a question and my question is, I have canned a lot of peaches a couple years ago can I use them to make this jam, it already has its sugar syrup in the jars?
ken strampe I’ve never tried it that way. But I think it would work if you drained the peaches and only used the sugar syrup to replace the water the recipe calls for. Let me know how it turns out if you try it 😊
Excellent tutorial! Clear instructions, perfect pacing, and great tip at the end about using a large pot (which is what I do). I made a batch of this jam last night, and it’s setting up on the counter now. Looking forward to taste-testing tomorrow! Meanwhile, I have three quick questions: Can you use this recipe to make 8 of the “baby jars” instead of four jelly jars? I assume yes but didn’t know whether the jar size mattered. Can you use Sure-Jell Low/No Sugar Pectin? (I made a last-minute trip to buy the Ball Low-Sugar Pectin you use in the recipe, since I wasn’t sure they were interchangeable.) Some of my jars “pinged” before I even got them into the water bath. Is that normal? I still processed them for 10 minutes, since the boil time is what sterilizes them.
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 , thank you for your reply! What does it mean to process to make it shelf-stable? (Oh, I think you mean go ahead and do the 10 minute processing time, even if the jars pinged before going in the bath.) Also, one of my jars tipped over onto its side when I set it in the canner. I went ahead and pulled it out and put it in the fridge, since I didn't know if that was an issue. Could/should I just have kept that one in the canner after standing it upright and let it process with the others?
@@outoftheherd yes to the first part. You could set the jar up and processed it. If it seals it’s fine. Worst case it won’t seal bc some got up under the lid. In that case you’d just have to refrigerate it
I don't know if you can help me. I am desperately seeking a recipe for canning hot pepper sauce. No tomatoes, just peppers (hot and mild) blended up with vinegar to make a hot sauce. Why would a recipe like that be so hard to find? Wouldn't that be perfectly safe for canning? :(
anonymous me I started checking and I can see your frustration. The closest I could find is this one from the Ball Fresh Preserving website,,, www.freshpreserving.com/singapore-chili-sauce-%7C-red-chili-sauce---ball-fresh-preserving-br1261.html#q=Hot%2Bpepper%2Bsauce&start=4. I hope that’s helpful. 😊
That’s just it they’re really little and I can’t. Is it because it’s the look. Or is it because the canning thing. When I make peach cobbler’s I leave the skin on
I probably won’t mind it because I love the way it looks in a peach cobbler you can’t even tell that the skins there. Thank you I guess that’s what I’ll be working all next week because I’ve got 5 gallon bags of baby pictures. They’re good but they’re just little off my trees.😊
Ventura0404 yes, please do! Just FYI an easy way to peel them is to put them in boiling water for 30 second, then put them in ice water for a few seconds, then the skins slide right off. Works for tomatos too 😊
Yeah I know. But I saw another lady that just left her peelings on and made a peach cobbler. It came out beautiful the skin just makes a tour little more rosy pink. Like I said you can’t even tell that it’s there. That’s why when you want to try it if I don’t have to pee I’m not going to. Like I said I will let you know. :-)
Can you explain why remove rings to store. I’ve always left them on. Also, if the “pop” doesn’t happen naturally, but I gently touch the lid and it “pops”, is it okay?
Doing my canning tomorrow! Very nice video, just a little tip, if you put 1/2 tsp of butter or margarine in your jam when boiling it drastically reduces the amount of foaming.

For anyone trying this recipe, just don't add any water and it's not to bad! No H20, unless you like your jam runny! 👍
I only found the regular pectin. But I dont want to use the 7cups of sugar they reccomend can I still lower the sugar?
Changing the amount of sugar could cause it to not set properly
can i double stack these jars in canner when making this recipe?
Yes as long as water covers your jars by at least 1”
Would it be possible to add peppers to this recipe? Also how much honey or monk fruit sweetener would you add?
I would use a recipe that includes peppers. Here’s what you need to know about using other sweeteners extension.psu.edu/canning-with-less-sugar
Do you have a recipe for pineapple jam using sure jell lowsugar/no sugar pectin???
Not yet!
Stupid question: I'm at 7,200 ft. Does that mean my processing time would be 25 minutes (10+15) or just 15 minutes? Please Help.
10+15 😊
Don't store with the rings on? Never heard that before, why?
hello can i use frozen peaches from super market in stead of fresh
Yes
Great video. I bought some peaches 🍑 this weekend so going to try this. Do you also have a video on raw packed peaches. If not would you consider making one?? I like how you teach do I would rather learn from you. Thanks
7459serenity thank you, what a compliment! 😍. Unfortunately I do not have a video on canning peaches yet. I had planned on doing one but by the time I got around to getting my peaches peach season was almost over and I figured no one would be interested at that point 😞. Raw packing peaches is so easy. I’d be happy to send you step by step instructions, not the same as a video I know... A couple of tips, wide mouth jars are easier to pack. Using a light syrup really lets the peach flavor shine through. Pack your peaches as tightly as possible. Fruit tends to float (I’ve tried every recommendation and mine still floats). Smaller peaches float less than larger ones. If I can help in any way don’t hesitate to ask. Best wishes for a great peach canning session and I’m sorry I don’t have a video yet. 💕Carol
Could you make this freezer jam instead of canning
You’d have to use pectin for freezer jam
Thanks for the quick reply. I've been canning/preserving for many years. I also love to ferment and dehydrate, Love to grow my own. Just discovered your channel and I've already learned more new techniques. What a wonderful resource you are .@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231
I have fresh peaches I froze from last summer. Will I be able to use them for this recipe?
Becky Skinner yes 😊
Could I use frozen peaches with this recipe? Thank you
Yes
Awesome thank you so much. I'm still trying to get fresh the price is so high here where I live
i have a question and my question is, I have canned a lot of peaches a couple years ago can I use them to make this jam, it already has its sugar syrup in the jars?
ken strampe I’ve never tried it that way. But I think it would work if you drained the peaches and only used the sugar syrup to replace the water the recipe calls for. Let me know how it turns out if you try it 😊
Is wiping lid of jar with vinegar to keep mineral deposits off?
No, it’s to remove any debris that could prevent a good seal
Could a bit of brandy be added for Brandy peach jam?
Margery Breit yes, sub out the water for brandy 😊
I have a question I have a very small peaches frozen with their skin sign can I still use those
Ventura0404 yes! Use them but remove the skins first 😊
Yesterday I made 4 batches of Strawberry freezer jam, about 10 pints. To me it seems eaiser than cooked jam.
DAVID TOBIAS both are great!
Freezer jam doesn't last as long I think
Excellent tutorial! Clear instructions, perfect pacing, and great tip at the end about using a large pot (which is what I do). I made a batch of this jam last night, and it’s setting up on the counter now. Looking forward to taste-testing tomorrow! Meanwhile, I have three quick questions:
Can you use this recipe to make 8 of the “baby jars” instead of four jelly jars? I assume yes but didn’t know whether the jar size mattered.
Can you use Sure-Jell Low/No Sugar Pectin? (I made a last-minute trip to buy the Ball Low-Sugar Pectin you use in the recipe, since I wasn’t sure they were interchangeable.)
Some of my jars “pinged” before I even got them into the water bath. Is that normal? I still processed them for 10 minutes, since the boil time is what sterilizes them.
Yes to “baby jars” same processing time. Yes to Sure Jel pectin. And you should always process to make it shelf stable 😊
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 , thank you for your reply! What does it mean to process to make it shelf-stable?
(Oh, I think you mean go ahead and do the 10 minute processing time, even if the jars pinged before going in the bath.)
Also, one of my jars tipped over onto its side when I set it in the canner. I went ahead and pulled it out and put it in the fridge, since I didn't know if that was an issue. Could/should I just have kept that one in the canner after standing it upright and let it process with the others?
@@outoftheherd yes to the first part. You could set the jar up and processed it. If it seals it’s fine. Worst case it won’t seal bc some got up under the lid. In that case you’d just have to refrigerate it
@@carol-thriftychichousewife6231 Thank you! Just subscribed to your channel. You have awesome content!
@@outoftheherd thank you! Glad you are here. If you enjoy canning and Facebook you might want to join our group, Canning With Carol and Friends 😊
Thank you for this video. Is the jam ready to eat after 24 - 48 hours or should you let it set up longer before eating?
Donna Hogan Ball states it’s could take up to two weeks for it to fully set but in my experience it’s been ready after 24 hours 😊
Hi , I followed all the instructions and my is to liquid 😣 how can I fix it?
What can I do to avoid for this to happen again ?🥺
Chances are you didn’t cook it on high. You must cook it on high for the proper amount of time 😊
I don't know if you can help me. I am desperately seeking a recipe for canning hot pepper sauce. No tomatoes, just peppers (hot and mild) blended up with vinegar to make a hot sauce. Why would a recipe like that be so hard to find? Wouldn't that be perfectly safe for canning? :(
anonymous me I started checking and I can see your frustration. The closest I could find is this one from the Ball Fresh Preserving website,,, www.freshpreserving.com/singapore-chili-sauce-%7C-red-chili-sauce---ball-fresh-preserving-br1261.html#q=Hot%2Bpepper%2Bsauce&start=4. I hope that’s helpful. 😊
Can one make jam from already canned peaches? 🍑🤔
Yes
How long do jams keep for?
About 2 years
Can these be steam canned?
Yes
Can you use frozenpeaches
Yes
Thank you for the info
Can you use regular pectin
Yes but you will need to use the amount of sugar called for in regular pectin
Why only Bottled lemon juice, and not fresh?
Bottled is consistent in acidity fresh isn’t
YUMMY 😋 🍑 JAM BEAUTIFUL ✨ THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟❤️🖤💚🤎 FAMILY DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜 AWESOME,
That’s just it they’re really little and I can’t. Is it because it’s the look. Or is it because the canning thing. When I make peach cobbler’s I leave the skin on
Ventura0404 gotcha. You do not have to peel them if you don’t mind the look and texture 😊.
I probably won’t mind it because I love the way it looks in a peach cobbler you can’t even tell that the skins there. Thank you I guess that’s what I’ll be working all next week because I’ve got 5 gallon bags of baby pictures. They’re good but they’re just little off my trees.😊
I’ll let you know how it goes
Ventura0404 yes, please do! Just FYI an easy way to peel them is to put them in boiling water for 30 second, then put them in ice water for a few seconds, then the skins slide right off. Works for tomatos too 😊
Yeah I know. But I saw another lady that just left her peelings on and made a peach cobbler. It came out beautiful the skin just makes a tour little more rosy pink. Like I said you can’t even tell that it’s there. That’s why when you want to try it if I don’t have to pee I’m not going to. Like I said I will let you know. :-)
Do I peel the peaches?
Sandra Burnham yes, peaches must be peeled for canning. Sorry I didn’t clarify 😊
Why bottle lemon juice?
The acidity is consistent which is required for safety reasons
why remove the rings before storing
Can you explain why remove rings to store. I’ve always left them on.
Also, if the “pop” doesn’t happen naturally, but I gently touch the lid and it “pops”, is it okay?
