You are so sweet. 💜 Thank you! With pancakes is a definite winner! Yum! I pray God blesses you and yours richly, as well. Your continued support means so much to me. 💕
They look great. If you want them thicker you can add a box of suregel at the end. I cook mine down about 3-4 hrs an use a hand mixer to blend them.there a little more like pear butter but there delicious. On a cold morning with a hot pan of biscuits you will have some fine eating!!!!
Pancakes would be so good with it but I was also thinking if you warmed it up a bit & used it as a topping over vanilla ice cream.. or on cinnamon toast. I think it'd be good on both! And I'm so glad you still posted the video. For someone like me who isn't a super experienced canner it's encouraging to see professionals still have bumps. And yes, I consider you to be a pro canner & the best one on YT 🖤😘🤗
Aw, Rebecca, you are just the sweetest! Sniffle! I love you, chickadee ! Thank you! I needed those words after a rough few days. I don't see myself as a professional even though I have canned thousands of jars through the years. Lol! I feel like I am always learning, too. I do dearly love sharing what I do and what I know, though. I always seem to struggle with jams, jellies, and preserves. Though it can be a blow to the pride, showing where I struggle keeps me humble and learning and trying again. That's essential to being better! To me, though it's hard to show something that doesn't make a video with a perfect outcome, it is important to remember others need to see our blunders. I know it encourages me when I see others do it, too. I always want to be real here on this channel. I just hate the idea of wasting other's precious time, I guess, if they come here just to find instructions for making and canning a certain thing. That's why I added the clip at the beginning of this video. Eating this over cinnamon toast or vanilla ice cream!?!? Yes ma'am! What time will you be here??? 🥰😁🥰🤗💜
@mymodernhomestead I'm on my way 🤗🖤😘 Someday, that'll actually be true! Lol. You would never waste anyone's time. Just knowing you is a blessing. 🙌 You're always so sweet, humble, kind & full of compassion. You're truly a Rockstar in my book. I hope one day to be half as good as you are with canning 🖤 I feel like I'm always a mess with canning & that's why I don't do any videos on the stuff I do actually can lol
@@littlefootranch4410 , you are the best, my sweet friend! You have such a gift for supporting and encouraging, and you use it well! The way you feel about my canning is the way I feel about your gardening! You definitely have a gift there, also, and you use it well. 💜🥰💕🤗
Yum! I've had jellies set so many times through the years. They do at least make for wonderful syrups! I opened a jar of these and the pear butter yesterday and put some on a biscuit. The flavor was so amazing with both even though the preserves weren't thick. They absolutely won't go to waste, though! I may make more like this on purpose! 😁🥰
Yeah, you just needed to cook them longer. Cook until thick and very syrupy. I learned from an older lady, Mrs Cates, of Cates orchard. She did a half bushel with 4lbs of sugar. Peel, slice in non reactive pan, layered with sugar. Let stand overnight in a cool place. Slowly bring to a boil and simmer until very thick. She used no spices. Pear preserves are so good. Yours look very good.
I will try again one day when I have more pears. I was afraid if I kept cooking them, they were going to disintegrate. Lol! Thank you for that input. I will keep cooking next time. The flavor is out of sight with these, at least! I appreciate you taking the time to leave a little insight and wisdom for me. 💜
@@mymodernhomestead I appreciate her for teaching me, she's gone now and the orchard too. I need to make some this year. We must keep these skills alive.
Normally, I would do the same. Too bad I started out the video saying I was going to make preserves. Maybe next time I will say I am making syrup and end up with preserves! 😆🥰💜 Thank you for being here! 💜
