Honey Jams!

     I have just finished making a batch of Blueberry Honey Jam using no pectin, besides the blueberries and Honey I also added 2 T lemon juice and juice of one lime. I let it simmer for 30 min. then whipped it with a handheld blender till smooth, then used a wire whip for 6 min. The whipping seems to help set it and thicken it, releasing the fruits natural pectin. It tastes great and we will see in a few weeks if it has set. I did this with some raspberry jam a few weeks ago and it turned out amazing. I did strawberry but did not quip it and it seems a bit runny.
      If you have other great successes with honey in your cooking let me know it makes such a nice jam and I also like to can with it.
