    where do you find liquid pectin?


  • Sharon

    My computer isn’t showing the amount of water in the recipe – could someone please tell me how much is needed?

    Looks good…but instead of using the pectin…I made some jam the other day and used ground chia seeds and it also helps gel the jam and you’re getting the benefit of the extra fibre and omega 3 from the chia…!

    Can someone tell me how much water to use? The recipe I’m able to read has symbols & jibberish???

    Does anybody know if instead of sugar you could use Blue Agave sweetener? And if so how much Agave?
