We Sure Can’s Vanilla Blueberry Jam

September 13, 2011 by Suzie the Foodie 5 Comments

Last year I made blueberry jam for the first time using a non-cook method. This year I wanted to compare it with a cooked jam and found this recipe in the cookbook We Sure Can! by Sarah B. Hood, published by Arsenal Pulp Press. As you can see, this recipe is very generous with its results! You begin by […]

We Sure Can’s Rhubarb Strawberry Jam

Summer in a jam jar Is there anything more satisfying and decadent than making your own homemade jam with summer produce?! I seriously doubt it. I have such fond memories of my mom making jam and especially of eating it when I was a kid growing up in Toronto. How wonderful to make it now […]

Damn! Well as if these crappy crumpets were not bad enough… The original recipe has disappeared! Sorry about that foodies. Before I sign off for a while I wanted to share my homemade crumpet story.

First, I apologize for the length of this post but it was unavoidable. I tried to divide this into two posts but then the story would be broken up. I just could not do that. My health is really suffering right now and it may be a while before I have many stories to share. […]

Click here for the recipe Last week I could barely move my right arm because of a shoulder injury. I had these anemic California strawberries and limp rhubarb that just had to be used or I was going to have to compost them. That is when I remembered that you can make jam in the […]

Wild Nova Scotia Blueberry Freezer Jam

Last year I made strawberry rhubarb jam and it was a bit of a fiasco. This year for my first jam (I hope there will be more) I wanted to try making a freezer jam. My mom insists it is the best kind of jam in the world. How could I not try it? I […]

Eat Your Fridge Week: Sour Cream White Bread & Strawberry Rhubarb Jam

November 25, 2009 by Suzie the Foodie 6 Comments

At first this post was just going to be about me taking out the Strawberry Rhubarb Jam I made last May out of the freezer so I could have a taste of summer in November but UnfinishedWork‘s interest in my Sour Cream White Bread inspired me to include the recipe for the bread as well. […]

Tutorial, Recipe & Tons of Drama: Suzie’s Strawberry Rhubarb Jam

May 14, 2009 by Suzie the Foodie 8 Comments

I have always wanted to make jam but have been too afraid to try. When I found out that you do not have to go through the whole preserving process to make jam (for some reason I thought it was mandatory) my ears perked right up! You just have to eat it within two weeks. […]
