Homemade HONEY Jam

It's jam making season! You can create a three ingredient jam with no additives or preservatives. This strawberry jam takes 4 c. strawberries, 1/4 c. Cox's Honey, 2 Tbsp. of a juiced lemon. If doing 4 c. raspberries, use 3/4 c. Cox's Honey and 1 1/2 TBSP lemon juice-boil 10 minutes. Macerate the washed strawberries in the honey 1 hour. Add the lemon juice. Pressure cook 1 minute or stove top cook on low until honey dissolves. Mash to blend. Saute for 5 min. or boil on stove top 5-10 minutes. Let cool. Very important to cook the full time or more and cool completely. Is great on toast, topping for waffles, pancakes, desserts, etc. Don't forget to do the wrinkle test to see if gel is set. Takes 1 hour and 15 minutes. Makes about 2 cups. Lasts two weeks in the fridge and up to a year in the freezer! Daughter of a successful beekeeper, Virginia grew up working the bees, packaging honey and helping her dad make deliveries in Southeast Idaho and parts of Utah. In 1978, she reigned as Idaho’s first Honey Queen. She has spent her life educating others about the uses of honey, beeswax and byproducts. She enjoys developing and experimented with honey-infused recipes. A relatively new hobby includes using social media and her RUclips channel to teach others how to store honey, cook with it, use it in health and beauty products, and many other domestic uses. After moving to the Las Vegas Valley in 2001, she continued as a distributor for her family’s Idaho farm-fresh creamed and liquid honey.

Nice video....
Here's what you can improve....
1. The audio is not normalized. Sometimes, it sounds like a whisper, viewers have to increase the speaker volume, then suddenly in the next part of the video, it sound like a thunder.
2. Camera is not landscape throughout. So, the cameraman needs to know how to shoot an entire video using one mode (landscape or Portrait )
Overall, the content was good. But i think these are the only reason why this channel is so underrated. Else, it should be trending.

On the stovetop, use low heat until what?

@@makaylaforbes6719 it becomes the gel stage. Use the dot test on wax or parchment paper. Usually 15-20 minutes.

Hi, I'm making this tonight and was wondering if I put this in canning jars while it's hot would it seal them and give a longer shelf life until they are opened? I have never canned before so I don't really know. The only disadvantage would be it might not get thick enough and you wouldn't know until you opened the jars later. Second thing, if it don't thicken enough can I just re- heat it and boil out more of the water content? Thanks for sharing, btw my house smells incredible:)

Michiwood Great questions! I will ask my sister-she’s the pro canner in my family. I do think that reheating and boiling again will thicken it. I agree on the smell! I love it! I’ll get back to you on the canning.

Michiwood I spoke with my sister. She said it should seal. Just to be safe she would follow directions on pressure cooking to seal the jar. He first inclination was the heat would seal it when you put the lid on.
