I was out to visit my sister yesterday which was a much nicer day than Monday. One of the tasks was to pick up the High Bush Cranberry Syrup she made on Monday. She picked 2 pails of them in the snow with gloves to keep her hands warm! We generally process them together but the berries were wet and she decided to just do it!
We have decided standardized our jars for preserving. She is using pint sized Mason Jars with Gem Lids which you see in the photo that hold 1.5 cups. I brought her 2 flats of them which I unearthed from my corner kitchen cabinet that have been sitting there since I moved years ago. I will be using the 1 cup tapered Mason Jar with Standard Lids. Those are the ones you see in the background of this photo.
I brought a few of the 1 cup jars back with me so I can make Chutney nearer to Christmas time.
Cranberry Syrup - sounds delicious. Do you use as you would other types of syrup, such as Maple?
