Questions & Replies

The Certo I have comes in 3 oz pouches, so I’m not sure how much to use in your recipe because you wrote 1/2 a bottle. How much is needed in ounces?

Dancer, used your recipe to make a favorite, Apricot Jam. WOW! That's good stuff. The addition of the lemon zest gives it a wonderful freshness. Thanks for posting the recipe; am making pear jam with it next week. YUM. Caroline
