Raiders of the Lost Art

                Truly, it is a lost art: Canning and Preserving   Apricot Preserves with 4 ingredients:  Apricots, lemon juice, pectin, honey.  So many people I meet tell me that they can't be bothered to make jam, and it's easier to buy jams and preserves from the store.  I admit, when it is hot outside, it's the last thing I feel like doing, washing jars, slicing fruit, but the effort is well worth it! I am so happy to see that home preserving is making a come-back!  Almost all commercial jams and preserves contain high fructose corn syrup, or TOO MUCH SUGAR! I decided to use honey instead.  Some brands even have sugar as the FIRST ingredient, ahead of fruit.  Avoiding sugar is a challenge, so we try to reduce refined sugar in our diet as much as possible.  This is one way to have our jam and eat it too!  To read more about sugar and glycemic index of foods, go to the Diabetes Canada webs...
