Yikes! There is more sugar than fruit in this recipe! You really only need about 1-2 cups and it will be plenty sweet.

Hi, I love Blueberry Jam. This recipe is perfect, but instead of pectin, I add apple. It does not affect the blueberry flavor, and the apple has all the pectin you need. Kind Regards Bluebell www.bluebellcottageireland.com

This is hands down the best jam I have ever tasted. As my first canning experience, it was super easy! Now I am hooked and making three more batches for gifts. Thanks for sharing Miss. Paula! <3

I would have given it the extra spoon had it not been so incredibly sweet. This could have been in part because I had some really good blueberries off the farm, but I think that care should be used in the sugar. There needs to be enough of course, but for me, this recipe went over the line in to "too much". The other flavors are really nice though, so I couldn't take too much from the rating. I will do a little research into how much sugar is necessary for safe canning and see if I can't adjust it a bit.

These preserves are awesome!! The lemon gives them a very fresh taste. I made these using frozen Costco blueberries. Will definitely make again. The same day, I also made Alton Brown's spiced blueberry jam. My husband likes this recipe better, but they're both so good, I can't decide which I like best.

This jam is AWESOME!!!!! I made a batch and gave some to family. The kids love it. We eat it on everything from biscuits to PBJ's. My brother-in-law tries to steal a jar everytime he comes over! Good first time recipe with great results. Try it you'll love it!

I made these preserves for the first time, however, I only used 4 cups of sugar and it is very good. Not sure you would need the 6 1/2 cups sugar!

This tastes great.But it did'nt quite set.How can I fix it?

By sheila kelley on July 29, 2011

Ms. Paula, I was wondering if instead of using 6 cups of sugar if you could substitute other sweeteners like splenda? Or maybe half splenda half sugar? Thanks so much for your help! Erica BOultinghouse

I just starting making these preserves last year, and they are the absolute best I've ever eaten. Easy to make, and a hit with all of my friends and family!

This recipe inspired me to try canning! Great recipe and got to use my Mom's old canning equipment which was fun too.
