Making and Canning Fresh Pear Jam - Recipe & Process (with or without Pectin)

It's jam time! Today we're making up some delicious jam from fresh pears. I'll be demonstrating two different methods for making this jam - one way that uses powdered pectin, and one way that doesn't require adding any pectin.

I received a gift basket for Christmas! It includes a dozen Royal Rivera pears. I used your pectin recipe and it’s fantastic! Thank you !! Btw- I got 25- 1/2 pints

That's great, it sounds delicious! A gift basket full of pears is what prompted me to make my first batch, some years back. I was like... I cannot possibly eat all these pears before they spoil.

I made this pear jam today with the Sure Jell. I emulsified I think too long. I processed them for 10 minutes . They have the consistency of applesauce . Is there anything I can do to make them look like your video?

Thank you for the video. I use lemon juice. If you are going to use a chemical why bother canning. Just by jam at the store. That's my thinking. I don't do pear jam It gets mealie. But THANK YOU FOR SHARING.
