I bought a jar of this type of jam years ago while travelling & have never been able to find a recipe....THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! This is even better than the stuff I bought so long ago. I just made 2 batches today..... only note I have to add is...In Canada Certo comes in crystals & liquid pouches....after phoning Certo they informed me that an 8 oz bottle is the equivelant of 2 - 85 ml pouches. This recipe is now in my yearly to make book. Thank you again. :-) -
This is fabulous! Everyone I have given a jar to has raved about it. I had to tell my husband to quit eating so much of it, or we'll run out before the end of summer! Will definitely keep making this one, year after year! -
I have used this recipe for years and it is a family favorite. The flavor is outstanding and the color is glorious. It makes a wonderful gift. Just be sure to use fresh Certo. -
I have made this very recipe minus the pectin and I had to cook it for about a half an hour before it would sheet off the spoon and so the amount of jam was reduced some what. It has a wonderful flavor. Both the blueberry and rhubarb flavors are there. This is one of my son's favorite jams. I am glad to find it here. Would highly recomend this recipe.
