Plink, plink, plink...
Woohoo! Thanks to the encouragement of St. Melba and others, I just made 7 pints of pomegranate jelly, and they're out of the BWB, plinking away on the counter. I have lost my fear of BWB at altitude (5800 ft.) which opens a lot of possibilities. I'm envisioning another batch with some other fruit added. Orange, maybe? They are the most gorgeous garnet color you could imagine. Thanks, y'all. gloria p who used to make lots of jelly/jam at sea level |

I just knew from the subject someone had a successful canning session! Congratulations. Your jelly sounds wonderful! Isn't that the best sound ever. Even DH listens for the plink and he doesn't even can but he does help with removing jars sometimes I caught him thumbing through the BBB so it's only a matter of time. > > gloria p > who used to make lots of jelly/jam at sea level |

It's a wonderful sound, isn't it!?
No pomegranates for me this year. Last year Frances and Jeanne did their level best to blow my poor tree out of the ground and nearly succeeded but for myself going out in the storm and hammering stakes into the ground to lash it to. This year it set exactly one fruit and dropped it about half-grown. Oh well, maybe next year. I keep thinking a pomegranate-fig jam would be good thing. ......Alan. |
