Ingredients: 1 lb (abt 455 grams) ripe Figs 1/4 cup Lemon juice, freshly squeezed 1 tsp Lemon zest, or from 1 med-large lemon 1/2 tsp ground Ginger, see Tips 1 Cinnamon stick * CLICK TO SEE FULL INGREDIENTS *
Instructions:
Using honey is a matter of taste. If you are not sure of your preference, I would suggest starting off with 1/4 cup and 3/4 cup sugar and taking it forward from there. Though you can use all honey, our taste defines that 1/2 cup is the perfect balance before it overpowers the taste of figs (and anything else we might add to it). Honey has a strong flavor and tends to take over both aroma and taste. Hence I stick to 1/2 cup. But you can use any other sweetener you like or go the traditional route and use all sugar instead. Honey and Sugar have almost same shelf life, but since this uses less sugar than traditional Jams, consume it within 10-15 days.
You can also use 1/4 cup of chopped crystallized ginger instead of the ground ginger. Want to go for fresh ginger? Then use abt 1 tbsp grated ginger root plus sugar to taste instead.

Yield: 3 Servings
Ingredients: 2 pounds of organic strawberries 1 cup of organic sugar 2-3 tablespoons of fresh squeezed organic lemon juice you can use more if it seems like the jam is not setting Mason jars * CLICK TO SEE FULL INGREDIENTS *
Instructions:
Cut and hull your strawberries. Let them soak overnight in the sugar.
If you want to make seedless jam after they are finished soaking, run them through a food processor or your high powered blender. If you want chunky jam, just continue. If you want jam with texture, crush the strawberries lightly.
When you are ready, gather a very large, heavy based pan. The strawberries should only go halfway. Anymore than that and the mixture will boil over causing a large mess.

Strain the flowers out of the water. Squeeze dry. You should have 2 1/4 cup infused water. Add more water if needed.

This apple cinnamon jelly is a close replica of the one from Knott's Berry Farm.
Yield: 3 Servings
Ingredients: 5 lbs of apples 4 cinnamon sticks 1 tablespoon whole cloves 2 cups water 7 cups sugar * CLICK TO SEE FULL INGREDIENTS *
Instructions:
The night before you are ready to can your jelly: Quarter your apples. You want the peel, core, and all. Place them in a slow cooker with the cinnamon sticks, cloves, and water. Turn it on low and let that baby cook for 10 to 12 hours.
Place a strainer over a large bowl in the sink. Lay cheesecloth on top of your strainer and slowly pour your apple mixture into the straining device. Gently press the cloth with a large spoon getting as much juice out of your apples as you possibly can ( I did this in several batches).
You should get about 7 cups of juice from this, but just in case… you can add a little bit of apple juice if you need to top things off. Place your 7 cups of juice into the large pot with the pectin. Bring to a rapid boil.
