Easy make and can homemade Christmas Cranberry Jam!

[@qiajenaehamilton6397]

I was just at the store a few days ago and I saw a bag of cranberries & wished I knew how to cook them. Now, I do! Thank you, Kandye!!!

[@cabincrafts2239]

You are so welcome! You can also leave asitis after it cooks down and serve as cranberry sauce!

[@lorriephillips653]

I have been interested in canning for a couple years but have been intimidated by it lol. Thank you for sharing this. Much love from Indiana.

[@cabincrafts2239]

You are so welcome! Get a blue book and start with easy stuff. Do things that are in season and they are cheaper.

Do not be afraid of canning I am 66 and started canning this spring and it’s a lot safer then when I was a kid.

[@mindikring2690]

Don’t be scared of canning. The trick is to research and know why you are doing steps or adding ingredients. There is a neat dose of chemistry and physics in it. Don’t take shortcuts. Be sure to water bath and watch your pressure gauges. There are so many items now that make it much easier and less frightening. For the record: I’ve been canning for 24 years (taught my great grandmothers ways via my grandma) and have never had a pressure canner e plods or made anybody sick.

I am definitely going to try this! Cranberry Christmas jam ❤ YUM! I bet it would be delicious on a biscuit. And I learned something new from watching this. I had NO IDEA corningware could go on a stove burner 😱 how did I live 54 years and not know this!?

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you! Lol, yes you can use the white one on a burner, but not the bowl. The bowl will shatter if it gets to hot.

[@crmee]

Thank you Kandye! I just started buying ingredients to begin holiday baking. I can add making this jam to the list.

[@cabincrafts2239]

Hope you like it!

[@cynthiaking1940]

I bought two bags of cranberries, Friday. I already done them in light syrup, for later. Now I wish I had them to make your recipe. I will be making some cranberry jam. Always enjoy your channel. If I lived near your shop, I would be there, as a regular customer. Love ❤️ you!

[@a_trauma_llama2991]

For those who've never had it, I hadn't either but it's great! I was introduced to it on toast (by way of those little jam packets in diners) from a nice older stranger I shared a table with in a packed restaurant. I asked where he ever got the idea and apparently his mother was a fan of it. I don't know if she used the canned "jelly" or made her own, but thank you for posting this. Now I can try it again with a home made recipe ❤

[@cabincrafts2239]

You're very welcome! I made it last year on Brie cheese and baked it. It was delicious. This isn't an ultra sweet jam. I love the tartness of it.

I scored a case of 1/4 pint jars at goodwill with the intention of making this jam. Thanks for the tips. I also have my mothers Ball canning book as well as my own. Ive been canning for many years but never this recipe. Im excited 🎉

I have never canned anything but you made this look so simple that I bought jars and gave it a whirl. Pops were popping on those lids! I'm so proud of myself at the age of 58 for trying it. Hope I didn't just create a monster!

I get motion sick really easily, but I listened to the whole video. It's a great idea for Christmas presents and I plan on making some this year. Thank you!

[@cabincrafts2239]

You're welcome! I'll try to do better next time!

[@lindaSee89]

I can whole cranberries as well. It’s the best. The Ball canning books are important to follow for food safety. I make my own extract. It’s now over two years old. I pour the jar water back into my water bath. I personally wipe the rim jars with vinegar. Yummy

[@cabincrafts2239]

I couldn't pour the water back in because it would overflow in the pot I was using. I usually do that with my large canner.

[@darlenethompson9325]

Thank you, Kanye, for showing us how to make this. I can a lot but haven’t tried cranberries. I have some in the freezer.

Oh Kandye..just pour the hot water back in the pot 😊 so you don't have an accident. I've been canning for decades and I still use the Ball Blue book! And rings just go on finger tight. The lids/seals go 'ping ' when done 😊

[@cabincrafts2239]

Me too, I've worn that book out. But I couldn't pour the water back in because it would overflow when I put in the filled jars. I didn't want to use my canner on camera for such a small project.

[@cabincrafts2239]

You can do it! Easy peasy!

[@JustNess78]

So excited to try this! Several years ago, I got ambitious and for the first (and only) time in my life, I canned strawberry jelly and gave it to the neighbors as Christmas gifts. I loved it! But it was hard work and the strawberries, being out of season at Christmas time, were super expensive! What was I thinking? LOL... I just didn't know of any other type of jelly. I was young and KZbin was new, so strawberry jelly was the only DIY video I found back then. But THIS! Now this is a recipe that I am willing to revisit my canning experience with, lol. Thank you Kandye. One question, though: So, is the burner still on keeping the jam warm while you put it in the jar? I'm afraid of it getting cold, if it's not, but I'm also afraid of it burning if it is. That's the part that is kinda worrying me. Advice? :)

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you! I turned the burner off so not to burn. It's such a small batch you'll get it in jars before it cools off. Also you can put the bowl obmver a simmering pot of water to keep it warm.

[@JustNess78]

@@cabincrafts2239 That's a great idea... thank you! :)

[@pbrn1729]

I love the cooked cranberries alone! With the sugar and seasoning. Not a big jelly fan, but I would eat your jam in a heartbeat on. Slice of homemade bread or a roll 💖💖

[@cabincrafts2239]

Just use it as cranberry sauce as is for the holidays!

[@denaestes740]

Looks Amazing ❤!!

[@cabincrafts2239]

Thank you 😋

[@darlas5762]

Hi! A couple of questions. First, does the emersion blender put air in the fruit mixture? Second, can you use orange zest? Do you think making a double batch would be too much at a time? Looks really good and just what I was looking for :)

[@cabincrafts2239]

No, it doesn't aerate the jam and yes by all means use orange zest if you have it! You can also use a blender or food processor to puree the fruit, or leave it chunky like a chutney, or serve it chunky as your cranberry sauce at Thanksgiving and Christmas.

[@stephaniejackson8555]

I bought a 5 lb box of frozen cranberries from Azure Standard. I will use 1 lb of them to make this, it sounds delightful.

[@cabincrafts2239]

Wonderful!

[@ElaineJohnson-kv1fu]

Can you add a can of pineapple chunks to this recipe?

[@cabincrafts2239]

Possibly, but pineapple is very juicy so you might have to cook it down longer. Drain the juice from it first if you're using canned possible.

[@sandraburke1258]

Is it a 1lb. bag or 12 oz. bag of cranberries, just asking because everything you buy these days the packaging is smaller.

[@cabincrafts2239]

It's a 12 Oz. bag. I bought 4 bags to make 3 lbs so I could make 3 batches.

[@Tr1ppyh1pp13]

You dont own jar tongs?

[@cabincrafts2239]

Yes! But I loaned them to my daughter in law and haven't gotten Them back!

[@Monkchip]

Why don't people understand its the water that you boil - not the lids!

[@cabincrafts2239]

I don't know! There are a lot of myths out there that are going around about canning.
