Creative Canning

Jam canning recipes turn a few pounds of fruit and a bag of sugar into a pantry full of spreads that taste like summer in a jar. Unlike jelly, which is made from strained juice, jam keeps the crushed or chopped fruit right in the jar, so you get more texture, more flavor, and a lot less fuss with jelly bags and straining.

Drink canning recipes are a simple way to keep homemade lemonade, fruit juice, and soda syrups on the pantry shelf, ready to pour into a glass long after the fruit that made them has come and gone. Instead of reaching for something from the store, you can open a jar, add cold water or a splash of seltzer, and have a homemade drink in hand in about a minute.
