Pectin, 1.1 oz (31 g), Pomona's Universal Pectin

Pomona’s Universal Pectin — a pure low-methoxyl citrus pectin that sets with calcium rather than sugar, letting you make delicious homemade jams, jellies, and preserves with as little or as much sweetener as you like, including honey, agave, stevia, or no sugar at all. 31g (1.1 oz).

Why

Most commercial pectins require large amounts of sugar to gel — which means your jam is often more sugar than fruit. Pomona’s Universal Pectin works differently. It’s a low-methoxyl citrus pectin that sets using calcium (included in the box as monocalcium phosphate powder) rather than sugar, giving you complete control over sweetness and texture. You can use any sweetener you like — honey, agave, stevia, fruit juice concentrate, or regular sugar in reduced amounts — and still get a reliable, firm set every time. The result is jam that actually tastes like fruit. One box makes multiple batches and can produce up to 22 half-pint jars. Suitable for cooked and freezer jam recipes, and also works beautifully in fruit gels, pie fillings, yoghurt recipes, sorbet, and homemade fruit candy. Vegan, gluten-free, and non-GMO.
