I followed the recipe but for some reason mine didn’t thicken enough. I fixed it with a cornstarch slurry. The taste is out of this world good.
Was a hit with chicken salad sandwiches. Mi e was good consistency. Cooked low and stirred often.
Only good for 2 days? Any way to adapt this recipe for a longer shelf life? This would be great to give as Christmas gifts
I thought of this recipe is because I thought she’d like this recipe! She can come down from her office and observe our work and see if there’s any things that need to be “redone” or “keep as is!”
Kardea, I will never go vegetarian because of bacon. Love your recipe, easy and delicious, & I found adding a tiny bit of water thins it to prevent getting too thick to spread, as the lady below mentioned. I LOVE your show. My sister has the longest operating day spa downtown in Chas. You may never get stressed on this dream job. But hope you can try it out, when not cooking for FN. Good luck!
I followed this recipe exactly.
However after it cooled , the jam was very stiff. I had to throw it away. I couldn’t imagine even trying to spread it . Has anyone have this experience.
Need this in my fridge around the clock! Goes great with everything
This is awesome!!!
Very god
I actually thought i burnt it..i think my temp was a bit higher than simmer. So before i turned it off i added some liquid smoke (hickory) and stirred it up. It did the trick!! Yum yum! My husband is gonna love it!!
