not sure where to put this!(but here it goes).
Me and my 10yrs son are making a few small batches(9 cups each) of cooked jam- Blueberry, Blackberry,Red Rasberry! These all came out perfect and very tasty and jarred solid!
My problem now that we are doing Apricot and Peaches that we
are getting way to much foam and the only thing that I know is using a bit of butter!(but it did not work on the pitted fruit).
I do this to honor my Mom and Dad who this time of the year put up every kind of fruit and veggie,one year they made horsradish! I will never for get that! They are both gone now and both of they'er Birthdays are this month also(so this is what I do to get over the hump!). Fresh jam all year!
Any wives ,cooking hunter?

We still grind our own horseradish each year. Oh the tears.:'( Sorry can't help you with the foam issue. Now if anyone is interested in making their own salsa, I got a good recipe for that.
 
My wife said that you can skim the foam off or add a 1/4 tsp of butter. And you all ready tried the butter. I can remember my mom skimming the foam off the top too.
