apples, peaches, kiwi and apricots may be used but should be peeled and have the seeds removed.

Frozen berries or fruit (no sugar added) may be substituted for fresh.Thaw and drain before measur-
ing. For thinner jam, use juice as part of the 3 1/2 cups berry or fruit amount.

Sugar and lemon juice help to firm, flavor and preserve the color of the berries or fruit.

You may decrease the amount of sugar, but it will produce a thinner result. More sugar will make it
thicker. For best results, sugar substitutes are not recommended.

Do not puree fruit. Cut into pieces and crush with a potato masher or use a food processor.

The average refrigerated life of jam is two weeks or up to several months frozen.
