- Comments
- These instructions come from an ancient Kerr cookbook. There is no
instructions for using a pressure cooker to process - so syrup might not be
able to be processed in a pressure cooker. Consult the instructions to your
pressure cooker before attempting. I have had great success with this recipe
using cherry, raspberry and strawberry juices left over from canning.
Store in refrigerator after opening. Syrup will turn to sugar if left long
enough. Heat in microwave, stirring between heating, to bring it back to
original form. Be careful. Hot syrup burns easily and quickly.
Not recommended for children.
