Hiya I made some Plum Jam really chuffed with myself, i made 8llb ok it's a bit over boiled might be chewy could be good for sticking my false teeth in, certainly a good adhesive judging by the working surfaces the sausepan handle the cooker top the sink the wooden spoon handle and the kitchen floor, oh and my shirt, trousers, and slippers, but it tastes good and i did enjoy myself, anyway three cheers for me, better go and clean up now, David |

Well done David, I made some last year and was really pleased with myself. Trouble is I can't get the darned stuff out of the jars - it's a bit, shall we say, SOLID!!!!!!! |

Well done, David. If it does seem a bit chewy you could always pop a couple of spoonsful in a greased Pyrex dish, mix up a sponge and pour it on top for a tasty pud. Won't be long until the blackberries are about, - more jam jars needed? |

When i had some jam that had gone solid I put it a second at a time (no more) into the microwave until it was more runny and it worked. Don't do i any longer than a second at a time gradually, because of the sugar content it will overheat. any way David, well done. Just goes to show that you can do it, there is no magic secret.
