Low Sugar Rhubarb Jam Recipe and Water Bath Canning Step by Step

[@LeaC816]

Does anyone else ever feel just a tad guilty if you are literally just sitting on the couch watching one of Becky’s videos and not up multitasking?!!😂 I LOVE your content and videos and learn a ton! Thank you so much for taking the time to film and upload and always sharing such great stuff!! ❤️

[@AcreHomestead]

Aw thank you :)

[@jodythomas1159]

I feel guilty but that’s because I saw a video was posted and I could watch it right then. I was distracted (and a tad grouchy) while trying to get done what I was doing. 😂

[@TheSleepyMisfit]

LOL! Yes!! Agreed. Becky is the multitasking queen.

[@jeannewalker8332]

Hi Becky! I have doubled with good results on jam recipes. I have tripled on a couple of occasions but found it more easily burned to the bottom of the pot, and did not taste as fresh as just doubling. I canned 21 pints of peaches today, beautiful fresh juicy fruit from ( Okanagan Valley, British Columbia). I chose to use a thin syrup, 1 cup sugar to 3 cups water as the fruit was so ripe and juicy. Last night I made a sample with one peach and syrup which was poached to be sure they would not be too tart. They look wonderful. I am 85 so don't do the quantities of canning I once did, just the things that are my favourites.! I enjoy your posts so much!

[@LynnMTHA]

Honey, thank you for this. I've not been able to afford the pressure canner so far. That's life, but been pushing the envelope with water bath canning. The grandsons love it!

[@Romans828girl]

When I was a kid, my grandmother had a MASSIVE pear tree in her garden, and she canned enough pear jelly every year to keep the whole extended family in jelly, She also used Sure-Jell. Every now and then, one of her bathes wouldn't set, and she'd end up with pear syrup. We LOVED it! All of the cousins fought over those jars. We requested that she make some on purpose, and she tried a few times, but she couldn't purposely duplicate it. So, if your jam doesn't set up, release your inner Bob Ross, call it a happy accident, and enjoy!

[@LittleGardenBigDreams]

Becky I find adding lemon juice to my jams is great for breaking up the sweetness and is also a substitute for powdered pectin xx Cathi xx

[@desertelk]

How much lemon juice per jar?

[@christinesellers188]

i always add lemon juice u can add quite a lot ...easy pectin

[@merete1409]

So do I. I also use the pits from lemon or apples if additional pektin is needed, I just put them in a container for tealeaves and let it cook for a while :)

I am so thrilled to learn about your channel through my friend in Scotland! Made the rhubarb jam, today, and it was perfect…doubled the recipe, too. I have several more batches to make from the vacuum sealed rhubarb in the freezer. THANK YOU, Becky! Happy Dancing in the middle of Washington state!

I do the same with my yogurt, but I make my own in my instant pot. It’s so easy if yours has a yogurt function. :)

I now live in Southeastern Alabama and finding Rhubarb is impossible. It is my Favorite Jam (next to plum) and my favorite pie. My grandmother used to make it every year from her garden…you are such a blessing to myself because you make canning and jams seem so much less complicated and with lower sugar amounts too. Thank you!!

Great vids Becky..Love how u explain step by step as I have no idea of the canning process & would love to know x

I love your teachings! My Aunt taught me to Jam at a very young age. She used lemon juice to counter balance the sweetness~so I do the same. Jamming is a ton of work but so rewarding! Thank you! Happy Thursday! (Psst..I bet your home smells lovely!)

Hi Becky, loving the videos, you're doing great. If you like rhubarb and custard flavour, try this: When I make Rhubarb Jam, at the end of the cooking process I take a 2-3 teaspoons of custard powder and add a little of the jam to make a paste, I then add it to the whole batch and have a rhubarb and custard Jam.......soooo yummy!!!!

One of the things I love about Pomona’s pectin is that you can easily double or triple reciepe or make your own. Not that I mean to be one a Pomona’s rant because there are negatives (I don’t think it has as long of a shelf life). It would be a great video for you to try it again 😂

I’d love to make a variant with ginger in it, I think it would be nice with pork

[@terryhenderson424]

The trick to multiplying jam/ conserves/ preserves recipies is in the depth of the fruit-sugar mixture. Too shallow and you'll burn every time. Too deep and you're likely to scorch tne bottom while not getting the top to temperature. You are essentially reducing the mixture by stirring the mixture and off-stesming while creating a soft candy out of the fruit and table sugar; both in the presence of pectin from the fuirt, lemon juice/ citrus fruit, and artifical pectin.

[@darlachristie7780]

I really appreciate this video. I’ve wanted to can for a while but I’m totally intimidated. I’m going to try some jam. Thank you!

[@robinharper2947]

Love seeing you canning! I’ve never actually thought of doubling my jams, but I’ll have to try it out next time. I pressure canned 28 pints of diced tomatoes today, with either potatoes or beans next week.

[@AcreHomestead]

Wow good work!

[@nastyachernomorchenko1065]

Hey, I don't think you need to can potatoes. Just store them in dry place with no light, or cover from light. When I was a child, my mom bought sack of potatoes every year and just stored them in boxes in closed pantry, and it worked just fine. May be it was potato kind thing, need bit of research. If you see shoots on potatoes, just rip it off, so it won't steal nutrients, and check if there are any damp spots in the pantry.

[@debbiealtman4572]

Never had rhubarb jelly or anything rhubarb for that matter. Great video.

[@Bethany_Sue]

Thanks for all your videos Becky! I just found you a few months ago and am loving all the content. I just made this jam today but added cinnamon and nutmeg. It was amazing! I am new to canning this year and love how simple you make everything! I also love the fast pace and energy you have. Also I think you mentioned you are in The Pacific Northwest near portland but in Washington. We are in central Oregon, I have gardens and chickens so I really connect with you. Although I can’t grow all the things you can down in the valley, we like to call the valley the Garden of Eden with how amazing things grow there. 🌻✌️🦋

[@livingthegoodlifeinwales]

Becky, your jars seemed to be touching more I thought they should. Is that OK? Loved❤️ this video, simple explanations about stuff. 😊👍

[@jerib8654]

Depending on the flavors, some jams are good to glaze grilled chicken. Plum and peach I know are yummy.

[@gr8carn4u]

What a wonderful and concise video for canning rhubarb jam! Very easy to follow for beginners and seasoned canners alike. I like how you showed that you had everything measured and waiting. I look forward to seeing what else you’re going to can.

[@Yoda63]

I think the reason they say not to double the recipes is that it affects how long the jam mixture needs to be boiled to evaporate off the appropriate amount of liquid. Or possibly that the larger volume needs to be heated longer before it boils which exposes the pectin to more heat and could break it down. In either case, if you're using a large pot like you did and a powerful burner doubling it shouldn't be a problem but doing a 4x batch would probably not work. Again, just my speculation!

[@lhanso20]

[@barbaragoss6177]

[@samanthawoodman2428]

Never had rhubarb anything before but it looked amazing! Also thanks for the quick canning tutorial, I have been thinking of trying that! Do you have anything else you water-bath can besides jams and Spaghetti sauce?

[@lisagrafton2529]

With the lid shortage, what is your feeling about using wax to seal your jam jars only? It used to be done that way all the time. What's your feeling about just filling the jars with hot jam, putting the lid on, and turning them upside down until they pop, signaling a sealed jar? Is water bathing for 10 minutes just to promote sealing?

[@illzemasalla2801]

Hi becky do a person water-bath every thing or only certain things

[@trinam2503]

Make sure wherever you plant the rubarb is where you truly want it! Once it's established, it's as hard as ivy to get rid of. It will spread, so either put it in a bordered bed, or be ready to pull baby plants that escape it's designated space. If you aren't sure where you want it, your best bet is a large planter until you decide. Your local garden center can direct you to the best variety and planting time for your area. Also I don't remember if they need shade or not. It's been over 20yrs since I grew any.
