Jams And Preserves Recipes
This recipe calls for “Ball No Sugar Pectin” which is a commercial,
low-sugar pectin. It can be found wherever canning supplies are sold. If
you can’t find that particular brand, please follow the strawberry jam
instructions inside the package of whichever brand of “low-sugar pectin”
you can find. Add the vanilla bean seeds as I do here and the recipe
should work beautifully for you. Each pectin manufacturer can have
slightly different measurements or technique for making the jam firm up,
so be sure to follow your brand’s recommendations exactly so you have a
successful gel. Wash all jars and lids in hot soapy water. Rinse and check tops of jars
for chips. Discard any chipped or cracked jars. You do not need to
sterilize these jars because you will be water bath canning them for 10
minutes, which sterilizes the jars during the processing. Just place the
jars in the water bath canner while you bring it up to temperature and
the jars will be hot when you are ready to add the hot jam.
