Notes
For variety, try other tender fruits, such as peaches, cherries, and berries.
I made this jam exactly according tot he recipe and it did not set. Any suggestions. I love apricot jam and would like it try it again but hate to waste the money.
Do you need to peel the apricots? The recipe doesn’t say.
Where do you get liquid pectin? I’ve always just used "sure jel" powder.
how long did it take for the jam to set for you?
Do you weigh the apricots with the pits inside or after removing them?
