thanks for jam recipe. i have never made it before, and i love apricot. just got some to ripen at the farmer’s market. i am glad for low sugar recipe since fruit is plenty sweet already and i prefer the least amount of ingredients especially sugars. best to keep food as real as possible IMHO. regarding the pectin activation, plant cell walls seriously rock 🙂 if i ever get my jam on, i will let you know how it panned out (gah! too much pun).
