OSU Extension Service Food Preservation

Plan ahead! This is the time of year that I most appreciate my extra efforts in July and August. It always seems like it is "too hot" in the summer to be in the kitchen canning. This morning, though, I really enjoyed my toast with my own blackberry jelly. Last summer I bought a flat of blackberries from my local farm-stand. I made blackberry jam and jelly using the pectin recipes. I also canned blackberries, syrup and pie filling from the OSU Extension recipes on our website. Use Clear Jel for the pie filling (available at most OSU Extension offices). Set aside a day this summer to can your favorite berry products to share and enjoy all year round.
