Homemade Kiwi Jam

I found this recipe on allrecipes.com and then found kiwi on sale for 6/$1 so I decided to try it out. I was pleased with the result – it’s a tart jam that tastes a lot like apple with a hint of kiwi. Yum!

  1. Hmmm… that sounds pretty yummy. I’m on a real canning kick lately, so I might have to give this one a go. But, not before I make some red pepper jelly with fresh peppers from my garden… on tomorrow’s agenda!

    Now how about a fig recipe? I have a huge fig tree that is full of figs and don’t know what to do with them!
