Hello,
I am trying canning for the first time this year. I have purchased most everything I need for water bath canning.
We had an over abundance of raspberries to harvest this year, so I decided to make jam.
My Raspberry questions:
1. We were picking over a quart a day at one point, so I picked out the bad ones, rinsed them, put them in ziplocks, poured in sugar(not measured), shook, and froze them. This has worked well for the baking I do but I am concerned I might have to adjust the canning recipe because I froze them this way?
2. I purchased cheesecloth because I wanted seedless. It doesn't look like it will do the job, the mesh has large holes. I am guessing that if I use layers it will do a pretty good job, so thats ok. However, I know two people who cannot have these seeds for medical reasons. I hope to make some for them for the holidays. Any ideas? I read on the internet that someone uses 100% polyester chiffon, what do you think?
3. I spotted a recipe on the net for Raspberry Rhubarb jam. We have a ruhbarb plant. Does anyone make this and have a recipe? I don't eat rhubarb, (its my husbands plant lol) so I don't know if it is just fine, too tough, too sour, etc this late in the year.
Any advice is welcome! Thank you, Melissa
