Where have you been all my life?

I am new to the Pomona's family. Used to can and preserve a fair amount before but was quite unhappy with the commercially available pectins. I tried the low-sugar recipes with no pectin, and while tasty they were still too sugary for my taste and didn't set up as much as I would have liked. So I drifted away.

We have been moving toward a totally organic way of eating now and after a good deal of research, Pomona's kept popping up. With a Sprouts just down the road from me, I picked up a box and did the peach jam: 6 cups of peaches and 1/2 cup sugar and the results were like eating a fresh peach! Absolutely what I had hoped for.

Next on my agenda are nectarines and cantaloupe. Your cookbook arrived yesterday, so I can't wait to see what new inspirations I am struck with. Thanks again!
