Fruit jams

A few months back I stopped by Berkeley Bowl West while I was in the area, and bought a ton of strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries in their discount produce section. Time for my first attempts at water bath canning! I used recipes from the book Naturally Sweet Food in Jars and they all came out delicious.

Washed blueberries
Blueberries in syrup
Smushed up raspberries
Raspberry jam
Strawberry jam
Raspberry jam and homemade yogurt
I plan to use some of the jams in baking, but so far I've been eating them with yogurt. It makes a great sweet treat when it's hot out, filling the same niche as ice cream.
