The house smelled wonderful when I made this. I only used 1 pouch of pectin for the first batch and it was very tacky and thick. The second batch turned out much, much better. I used 2 cups of cider vinegar (instead of 1/2 cup), and still only used 1 pouch of pectin. It's very good, though I may add a bit more garlic for batch #3.

If only there were 10 stars to give this recipe! I could eat the whole jar myself in one sitting. Super easy to make and you can change the garlic taste with different varieties. Perfect on a wheat thin...or 50! I will cut the pectin back to 4.5 oz next time for a little looser jelly, mine set up a little tacky.

My hubby grows an abundance of garlic and this is a great way to use some of it up. I printed this recipe for my mom who had been looking for a recipe after tasting some in an Amish settlement. It was a great success! It is good on a bagel with cream cheese, also you can spread it all over a roast and put in crockpot or oven and WOW, so good!

On January 10 2010 I will celebrate 9 years of Life with Zaar. I can't imagine being without it! It has become part of my daily routine.
I feel very privileged to be one of the hosts on the Photo Forum. Taking photos of my culinary efforts is a full time hobby and I love it. My friends all know what to expect when they come to dinner "Are you finished taking pictures?" or "Did you get a photo of so & so?" I never let them wait too long and the food is NEVER cold! I now have over 6000 photos on Zaar - some fairly good and some definitely not so good. I am happy to say that practice does help.
My roots are in Vancouver BC Canada - a very beautiful city that holds many wonderful memories for me. In 1990, I decided that for my retirement years I may want to settle in a smaller community and found a slice of heaven in the North Okanagan B.C. I love living here but every once in a while I miss the bright city lights, the Broadway shows and some of the small wonderful ethnic restaurants that Vancouver abounds in. That is easily resolved. I just take a trip to the coast, visit with friends for a weekend see a show and feast on Dim Sum or other specialty foods.
I am getting a bit long in the tooth but was a very adventurous person. I have river rafted Hell's Gate on the Fraser river, been up in a glider over Hawaii (no not a Hang Glider!), gone hot air ballooning in the Napa Valley & the Fraser Valley, driven dune buggies on the dunes in Oregon, Para sailing in Mexico and tried many other adventurous, challenging, fun things. I have yet to try bungee jumping or sky diving. I may do them yet. I love to travel and experience other cultures. Mexco has been a favorite haunt. I have visited that lovely country many many times. Australia is another favorite as is England!
In the past 16 months I have taken off 61 pounds and feel wonderful. I am off all medications and all systems are GO! In years I may be 79 but in spirit I am still in my forties. We are only as old as we allow ourselves to feel. Always think positive. Do something a bit challenging every day & always do something silly every day. Be a kid again! Laugh every day - it is internal jogging.
Here are a few of my photos
