At first I was hesitant to make a jam other than plain strawberry. I had these ingredients in my garden and it was a perfect way to use them. I'm so glad I tried something new. The basil is a nice background flavor. It is so good on scones hot from the oven with a dab of butter.<\/p>","CommentId":1,"DateRated":"09\/20\/2016 14:52","GUID":"d952a8d4240c424793619a305e93ff51","MemberId":1537577,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"tcavman15","SubmittedDate":"09\/20\/2016 14:52"},{"Comment":"

I made a couple types of jam as a baby shower favor, and months later, guests were still telling me how awesome this strawberry basil jam is. A few hints: stir in the basil RIGHT before you put the jam in the jars. I added the basil, got distracted, and the jam sat on the stove for awhile -- the basil turned brown, but it still tasted good. Also, make sure you use a giant pot. The jam bubbled over and was tough to clean up! (Rookie mistake.)<\/p>","CommentId":2,"DateRated":"07\/15\/2016 13:48","GUID":"76c540a4e32141bcbd2f8b0d304ac973","MemberId":5796034,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Ellie31773","SubmittedDate":"07\/15\/2016 13:47"},{"Comment":"

This is the first jam I have ever made. I gave it as a mother's day gift to my family and friends. Everyone raved how amazing it was, and asked if I had anymore! It is one of the most tasty items I have ever made. I give it 2 thumbs up and a big smile! FYI, you do not need a canner. All it is, is large enough pot that allows you to fill water 2 inches above your jars. If you can find a rack to put inside you will do yourself a huge favor because the jars are difficult to remove without a rack. And you don't want to dump your hot water in case the seal did not take and you need to repeat the process.<\/p>","CommentId":3,"DateRated":"05\/11\/2016 12:07","GUID":"dbf8040bb56e4ca0b0e7d35ec45c3def","MemberId":8446958,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Msamynoel","SubmittedDate":"05\/11\/2016 12:07"}]},"breadcrumb":[{"term_id":309177,"name":"Recipes","slug":"recipes","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":309112,"taxonomy":"categories-v2","description":"Browse Taste Recipes recipes by course, cooking style, cuisine, ingredient, holiday and more categories to find a new family-favorite recipe.","parent":0,"count":51713,"filter":"raw","term_order":"0","url":"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/"},{"term_id":310796,"name":"Dishes & Beverages","slug":"dishes-beverages","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":310731,"taxonomy":"categories-v2","description":"Wondering what to make?
