This is just a short post on canning homemade jam.
Over a three day period, I collected three pounds of figs from my tree in our back yard. I love figs, so I decided to try making some homemade fig jam. Of all the canning that I have done, I think this was the easiest to do correctly.
I used the recipe "How To Make Homemade Fig Jam - Easily!" which I found at PickYourOwn.org.
When I was through, I had seven half-pints of delicious fig jam, plus a little more that went into the refrigerator!
The fig tree still has dozens of figs in various stages of development, so I will surely be making more, and if I get enough figs before the ants do, I'll make fig preserves.
That's all for now. It was a short post, wasn't it?

I would like to wish my mom a Happy Birthday today as she turns 89 years young. She still has her own vegetable and flower garden, and she is active in her gardening club.
Happy Birthday Mom! I love you!
I hope everyone is having a great gardening day!

We just planted a fig tree this year. Maybe next year I will have enough to try this recipe. Looks delicious. Happy b-day to your mother!
ReplyDeleteOh figs. Yum. I hope my trees produce something next year. I really do.
ReplyDeleteLooks great, as always Veggie PAK. Enjoy the preserves and happy b-day to your mother.
ReplyDeleteyour mom sounds awesome! I'm jealous of your canning fun. I'm dying to have a fig tree but have no room for even a small tree. Well, I have room, but no room in a sunny spot.
ReplyDeleteWow. Salute to your mother. She has a vegetable garden? . Please covey my hugs from India to her!
