- Remove jars from boiler and let them cool for 24 hours for a good seal.

I'm a big fan of both cherries & strawberries, so the making of this recipe was right up my alley! Absolutely enjoyed making this great tasting jam, & I actually made a 2nd batch to use as a special addition to my Yuletide baskets ~ A very nice change from my usual cranberry offerings! Thanks for posting this wonderful recipe! [Made & reviewed in Newest Zaar tag]

Update: We've moved back to the states, and are experiencing the joys of living in Wenatchee, WA for the first time! I'm spending most of my time in the kitchen canning, freezing, and drying fruit now and loving it!
We are a couple, Jason and Mollie, that loves to cook together. We have two wonderful DD's, Enjoli (9) and Emily (7) that make life so much more fun! I, Mollie, studied Nutrition so I try to make most of our meals healthy while still tasting great! Our girls love helping us cook...and eat! We're vegetarian and love eating healthy without missing any flavor! We try to eat mostly vegan, so we have many vegan recipes posted. We are world traveling missionaries and students that have visited many countries and have lived in the States, South Korea, and are currently in the Philippines. So we always need to adjust our menu based on the food available. Zaar has been a tremendous help!
