Canning Jams and Preserves Baking / Cooking Class June 24, 2011

Learn how easy it is to make jams and preserves from market-fresh produce without spending a lot on equipment (in fact, you really only need jars and a large pot). We'll cover the basics of canning and how to safely seal your jars and then get on with the fruits of the season. Let us peruse the Wednesday market for the freshest berries and newest fruits ('tis the start of those stone fruits) and stir up some sweet, spreadable magic. You’ll take home as many jars as can go around!

- Strawberry Rhubarb Jam

- Peach Preserves

- Apricot Honey Jam with Roasted Pistachios

This class will take place at:
The Gourmandise School of Sweets and Savories
