Meh, this is too syrupy, lacks any brightness. Lemon could enhance that, also bourbon on the finish could make it more savory. 3 stars because I can use it as an ingredient. It’s definitely not a jam.Reply

I froze my huckleberries and then used them to make jam and it worked out great.Reply

I made this wild huckleberry recipe and the jam didn't set up??! My store didn't have liquid pectin so I used the powder package but that is the only thing I did differently. I thought it would work! What can I do now?? The flavor is wonderful but it is like syrup.Replies 1
