  1. This is a DELICIOUS and easy to make jelly. I don't consider it a jam. I made this last year. My family, especially my children, loved it. They didn't want to eat grape jelly any more afterward. So of course I had to make it again this year, but I tried something new. After rinsing the berries, I ran them through my juicer (without cooking them). I then followed the recipe using the three cups of juice. I was told by a county extension agent that I would still have to strain the juice through a jelly bag. I did for part of the batches, but got lazy for the rest and used the juice straight from the juicer. They both set up perfectly and I couldn't tell the difference in taste. I put some in pint jars. Those jars took about two weeks to completely set up. The smaller jars set up more quickly. The bottle of liquid pectin is equal to two pouches if you buy it that way.
     
  2. I just used this recipe. I was a bit concerned of how mulberry jam would gel andctaste, color too! This came out fabulous! A unique jelly that isn't like anything else! Very tasty! Color reminds me of cranberry sauce. Great recipe! Try it!& TY to the author!
     
  3. This is good proportions the only problem is this is far from a jam you're reducing the fruit from the mixture and using just the juice and calling this a jam so I can't write this as a good mulberry jam because it's not really a jam
     
  4. I did exactly was written and the same thing happened as last year it didn't set
     
  5. Made this with powdered pectin (added pectin first to juice, then boiled, then added sugar/lemon juice and boiled the 1 minute). Soooo good! Moved to a home with a mulberry tree last year, and now have a way to use them all. First batch I made is small, but if I make a big batch, will be canning the proper way.
