BERRY JAM, NO SUGAR OR PECTIN

I did my first canning project and absolutely loved it!  I had so much fun and it was so rewarding to be able to give jars to my family and friends and co-workers.  Everyone who tried it ate it all up in a single sitting and asked for more and could not believe that it did not have any sugar at all!!!  I felt like it was a sucess, i water bathed the jars istead of pressure cooking and it seamed to work out pretty good.  All i used was strawberies 6 pints, 4 pints of blackberries, 1 small green apple (instead of pectin)1 lemon (a teaspoon in each jar to help preserve), 4 cups of honey.  simple :)




I had a few people suggest only blackberry jam, i just replaced the pints of strawberries with blackberries and it came out perfect.  Did you know that jam on the shelf usually has 1 part fruit to 6 parts sugar.  That is insane.
