It's delicious. I did replace the water with fresh water, and found that it took much longer than 15 minutes for the temperature to reach 220. Making another batch this afternoon! Thanks for sharing!

They are absolutely delicious out of hand, but I'd love to preserve them. I found this recipe during a Google search, and the pictures alone are enough of an incentive to try my hand at real canning. I've put up freezer jam for several years from wild blackberries, local strawberries, and store-bought blueberries, but I'm ready to take the hot bath plunge. Thank you for inspiring me.

It is declicious. I thank you very much! I used your measurements for the most part, but used pectin and less water. It is declicious. I thank you very much!

Do you know about what weight of fruit you ended up using? This sounds lovely. Do you know about what weight of fruit you ended up using?

When I made it, it ended up being quite thick. I found that it took much longer than 15 minutes to reach 220 degrees, however - that's the most critical thing to making sure it ends up thick enough in the end. I've made other jams without pectin before where I have run into this issue where it's runny (like the pluot jam I mentioned). Usually it happens to me when jams have large chunks of fruit that are in fact not up to the same temperature as the rest of the jam, but my candy thermometer doesn't catch that. Every jam ends up being a slightly different consistency for me, but they still all taste great! :) Hi Nicole,

I made it last night and followed the directions pretty closely and now that it's in the jars, it seems a bit runny. Did you get similar results? I notice that the recipe didn't call for pectin (which is good, I'd rather not use it), but I've seen other marmalade recipes that do, such as: http://www.eatingoutloud.com/2008/02/orange-marmalade-sunshine-in-a-jar.html Just curious about your results...
