Anyone here using natural pectins? I have used green apples in
strawberry jam last year. Made a fantastic jam which tastes different
than jam made with commercial pectins. I cannot remember the ratio of
apples to strawberries unfortunately. Which made for a fairly runny
batch of jam this past week when I made some (but it tastes great!). I
check the pectin in the jam by taking a bit of jam (1/2tsp) and put that
in a clean jar and than pour a like amount of everclear over the jam
sample. it will either turn into an almost solid blob or be stringy. how
it looks tells you how much sugar to add-the more solid the less sugar.
The Joy of Cooking has complete instructions on how to do/interpret this test.
Quince would be another great fruit to add to jam/jelly for pectin
