Place over low heat and stir for 1 minute, until gelatin is completely dissolved. Remove from heat. Add strawberries and Sweet 'N Low. Mix well. Pour into 4 hot sterilized 1/2-pint jars. Seal tightly and allow to cool. Note: Because Sweet 'N Low® provides only the sweetening and not the preserving qualities of granulated sugar, jams made with Sweet 'N Low® must be refrigerated and used within 2 weeks if not frozen. My friend's mother-in-law gave me this recipe and a small container of the jam. It tastes like fresh strawberries and will be wonderful to take out of the freezer one cold winter day to spread on morning toast. What You Need2 cups sliced fresh strawberries What You Do Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 minutes. Pour into sterilized 1-cup freezer containers or jars. Allow to cool and cover. Store in refrigerator for 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months.

Mother's Corn Relish
Yields: 5 pints Every summer, my mother would put up dozens of jars of this superb corn relish to give as gifts to friends. I might have been young back then, but not too young to help with shucking the corn or enjoying the sweet and spicy relish.
I've updated the recipe, using Splenda sugar substitute and a couple of red jalapeño chiles.
What You Need
2 teaspoons salt
3/4 cup Splenda sugar substitute
1 ½ teaspoons dry mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons turmeric
1 quart distilled white vinegar
10 large ears of corn, kernels cut and scraped from the cobs
3/4 cup chopped green bell pepper What You Do Spoon the relish into hot sterilized pint jars and fill the jars with the liquid, leaving about 1/4 inch head space. Seal. Process for 15 minutes in a boiling water bath. Remove sealed jars and place on thick kitchen towels to cool. Store in the pantry. Once open, refrigerate. ❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧ This is one of my favorites. You can make it with the familiar green basil or ruby-colored opal basil; the latter will give you a pale pink vinegar. The vinegar's particularly wonderful sprinkled over sliced tomatoes and tossed green salads. What You Need What You Do ❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧ This is a delicate vinegar with a lovely pale peach color. Sprinkle over sliced fresh fruit or a salad of baby greens that's been tossed with a drizzle of almond, hazelnut, or walnut oil. What You Need What You Do Add 3 pieces of cinnamon stick and pour 3/4 cup vinegar into each jar. If the peaches are not completely covered by the vinegar, add the remaining 1/2 cup. Cover and refrigerate for 2 weeks. Strain the vinegar and peaches through a fine mesh sieve, then pass through a coffee filter. Pour the vinegar into a sterilized vinegar bottle, cap, and label. Store at room temperature. Use within 2 months. ❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧ If you like okra as we do, you'll find yourself making this recipe again and again. A jar of pickled okra from a specialty store is expensive.You can make these for just pennies, and they are so delicious. What You Need Pickling Solution: What You Do Loosely pack okra vertically in the jar. In a small saucepan, bring the ingredients for the pickling solution to a boil. Insert a metal knife into the jar to keep the jar from cracking as you pour the boiling solution into the jar to cover the okra. Seal with the lid. Let stand for 30 minutes to cool, then refrigerate. Use within 1 week. (Recipe Courtesy of Sweet 'N Low) What You Need What You Do Place the fruit, their juices, and rind (zest) in a large pot. Add the peaches and blueberries; sprinkle with sugar and let stand for 30 minutes. ❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧❧
