plum butter made from sand plums

Strawberry is the only one for me. Butter and a hot biscuit with strawberry jam like mother used to make.
The ones at the stock sale food stand are good too.

I hope everyone knows the difference between jelly and jam.

My mom made an awesome plum jam.

Strawberry rhubarb is one of my favorites. Blueberry doesn't suck either

anything my Mom made......

Damm.........that woman could cook/bake/can/bottle/make jam of any sort

Her Mom was from Liththwania........

Prob my fav was 'stuffed cabbage rolls'

Great Hunkie food in west PA

Sorta off topic........oh well......

Fairly low sugar content and mighty tasty:

The End

A jar of blackberry, plum, and wild mustang grape in my pantry right now.

Muscadine would be my No.2

Home made sour cherry jam from our trees.

Grandma used to make fig jam.

It was awesome.

Damson plum and apricot, homemade of course.

Do you think figs look like scrotums?

I just wish I could have sat down for some home cookin' in Ma and Pa's kitchen:

Apple butter

What about a good chutney? Every uppity joint downtown that advertises “farm to table” and “locally sourced” slathers mango chutney on damn near every meat dish.

We weren’t allowed to eat figs, we grew up seventh day Adventist

Raise ya one

cheece & rice...........

Do you go to the Thursday or the Saturday sales? Which one has the best hot dog??

Got some mayhaw jelly from an esteemed member here... It was fantastic!

Sixty yrs ago people knew how to cook/can/bottle

This new generation doesn't know squat living in mom's basement

Fig and peach

The little old portagee lady across the street makes the worlds best stone fruit preserves. I clean her leaves every fall/winter to get our yearly allotment.

Favorite is Boysenberry preserves.

[quote=jackmountain][quote=Higginez

Never heard of that before . Please explain why .

I think something in Genesis. Or maybe Revelations, can’t remember.

Ones without seeds.

They become aware of their "nakedness" and make fig-leaf clothes, and hide themselves when God approaches. When confronted, Adam tells God that Eve gave him the fruit to eat, and Eve tells God the serpent deceived her into eating it.

Interesting jackmountian. But in my opinion….you didn’t miss anything.

Jag’s favorite:

TFF! Winner winner chicken dinner!

Sluml9rd D9 y9u like yu9r jelly/jam 9n white 9r wheat bread? My letter 9 is br9ke, keeps putting a 9 ..

The Lingonberry stuff you can get in IKEA

My grandmother used to make green tomato/jalapeno jelly, pretty good. Personally, I like boysenberry better than any ordinary jam.

Blackberry on homemade toast with butter.

Mayhaw jelly……with Chokecherry coming in at a close second! memtb

Wild crabapple jelly. Nectar of the gods.

Elderberry.


No. Strawberry freezer jam.


Well....my wife made some Grape Jelly last year.
Hadn't for several years, we got used to Welch's.
Her's blew Welch's away!


Some one posted Apple Butter.
It ain't jelly.
But I love it. If who ever made it knew how to spice it without making spice butter.
We make our own.
Growing up, Pap's table had a bowl ofapple butter for every meal.
If we were sitting there, the apple butter was too.

Strawberry Jam or Peach preserves.

Hated it as a kid but now I love apricot jelly.

Would anyone have good recipe for apple butter? My granny used to make a good one, pretty sure she used apple sauce as a base.

Apricot but there is a place in NH that makes a lemon marmalade that is really good too.

I can remember my Dad’s mother (Mama Lou) making fig preserves. A wonderful aroma that covered the entire house. Of course we had Brown Turkey variety of fig trees and we were responsible for beating the birds and squirrels to the harvest. Had a Red Ryder and slingshot to help in this task. Had a Chinaberry tree to supply ammo for the slingshot. Mama Lou made thick sugary fig preserves served with cat head homemade biscuits. Sometimes we had sausage patties or bacon to go with them. My second favorite was a tossup between blackberry jam and pear honey. We knew where every berry patch and alligator pear tree was in the community plus the pecan trees. I hate red bugs (chiggers) from my berry gathering days. W also knew when they ripened.

Hands down for me is Salal Berry jelly. My grandmother lived on the Oregon coast near Yachats when I was young and she made it. When I lived in Roseburg Oregon last year I picked a bunch and made my 1st batch. It is incredible.

I do of course like many others. Gooseberry is high on my list as is fig.

I recently dumped out some orange marmalade,

blah

Forgot the homemade pepper jelly served on cream cheese with regular, Club, Ritz crackers or Wheat Thins. Made a mild green one and a hot red one for the menfolk. Used green longhorn and bell peppers for the mild. Cayenne and jalapeño w ith crushed red pepper flakes for the red hot jelly. Great at Christmas.

I forgot to mention that I am also quite partial to a well made citrus marmalade. My mother and I made a batch a few years ago that was fantastic.

I am now making Muscadine wine but have yet to try any muscadine jelly. I will need to rectify that.

Wild black raspberry is what I grew up on, grandma made it. The black raspberries are hard to come by here, and wild blackberries make a suitable substitute. Jelly.

I started eating orange marmalade a few years ago occasionally. I like it just fine.

Wild Plum.

Toss up Huckleberry or Muscadine.

Mine didnt have much flavor

All sloppy and no joe

1) Fig Preserves

2) Peach preserves

3) Blackberry jam

4) Apple butter

I can eat fig preserves straight from the jar.

Orange Marmalade.
Strawberry Preserves.
Apple Butter.
Peach Preserves.

+ 1 on the Boysenberry !

Fig for sure

Wild crabapple jelly hands down, followed closely second wild chokecherry jelly

beat me to it!

Elderberry. 100%

Homemade raspberry jam is far and away my favorite. I prefer jam over jelly.

Some are so over sweetened they might as well be jellied sugar syrup with coloring.

It is nice to taste the fruit and even better if slightly tart

This is why all the gooduns leave...distasteful.

Mayhaw, followed very closely by plum

I lived in London once for about a year. I used to go to this English diner for breakfast several times a week. The old biddy that served me used to always give me orange marmalade. I would always ask for something different like strawberry. She always refused.

One day, after having a small assortment of jams sent to me from the good 'ol US of A, I walked in with a little brass carrier that contained 3 different types of AMERICAN jams and I set it on the table. The old English lady looked at me with absolute disgust and called me a barbarian. I said thank you and was very proud of myself and then reminded her that if it wasn't for America she'd be speaking German. She threw me out.
