Do you use a jam thermometer grannie? I find with some jams that the 'finger test' is equivocal.
Oh what an idiot i am, went to click on quote, and clicked on edit instead, then wondered why my reply ended up in your post Dawn!!!!
I did have a sugar thermometer, but I blew it up a few months ago, and as I don't get out much, (sad sod!) I haven't replaced it yet!!!!
Also, pleased to announce that the blackcurrant jam actually set itself, but after about 3 days!!
And yes, if I do have jam that doesn't set well, I call it a conserve, and have it with ice cream or plain yoghurt!!!
