sarahbyrddThis year's jam has been made following last year's recipe, with the only change being that I let the berries macerate for 2 days because of schedule issues. I made a HUGE batch with 5 quarts of berries, which got a little dicey when I was waiting for it to get to gel, and just barely fit into my big dutch oven, but it seems to have worked out.
With berries at $5.50 a quart, the jam has come out to around $3.50 per pint, with a yield of a little over 8 pints for the batch. Not bad for a superior product.
