I'm not sure about how the ingredients work together to make it set right, but perhaps the amount of sugar listed in the recipe helps it to set. I think I ended up making two batches of jam, which is why you see more jars in the photo; one recipe should fill 5 8(oz) jars. Hope that helps!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11380816714356170789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280055926973864199.post-73384810602501829882012-04-24T10:03:21.858-04:002012-04-24T10:03:21.858-04:00I made this same recipe last week, and I feel 4 cu...I made this same recipe last week, and I feel 4 cups of<br />Sugar is overwhelming.

I intended to do it weeks ago when I had some berries, but never got to the store to get the fruit pectin, for various reasons - and then when I finally did, my berries went bad! Isn't that so depressing?! I was so sad ... but I am TOTALLY going to do it ... and soon!! ;o)Leannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09876596550196636127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280055926973864199.post-34343984254124716302011-04-28T15:45:46.227-04:002011-04-28T15:45:46.227-04:00ohhh I LOVE your strawberry jam!!
