PRESERVING JAMS JELLIES AND MORE CLASS

Join us for this 3-hour introductory class that takes you through the process of making and canning jams and jellies. We will discuss in detail the key ingredients: fruit choices, sugar and alternative sweeteners, the importance of lemon juice, and the role of pectin in thickening your preserves. Step-by-step demonstrations will include preparing the fruit and other ingredients, followed by canning using both a boiling water canner and the recently approved atmospheric steam canner. You will leave this class with several scientifically tested recipes and the knowledge and skill to safely can jams, jellies, and other high-acid foods in your own kitchen.

The cost of this class is $5.00 payable at the door. No reservations are required.
