Home Agent
By ESTHER KIRMIS
I find many of you are in the
midst of jam and jelly making
with all our lovely Oregon fruit
coming on the market. Mrs Ruth
Klippestein, extension nutrition
ist, has sent me some good tips
on jam and jelly making that
I would like to pass on to you.
Sparkling jams and jellies
with Northwest fruits will "turn
out" better if popular recipes are
revised for local use. Two of the
main jolly-making' ingredients,
pectin and acid, are found in
somewhate higher quantities in
some Oregon fruits and need to
be reduced in many recipes.
When local homemakers use rec
ipes written for a national aud
ience, they often are disappoint
ed in their results firm Jams
and tough jellies.
Before changing any recipes,
Mrs Klippstein suggests making
a small "test" batch following
the recipe. Then make changes
needed. To "localize" a recipe,
use about a third less pectin
than recommended. For "high
acid" ,berry jams and jellies
added lemon juice or other acid
is usually not necessary. Improve
berry jellies by substituting
apple juice for half of the berry
Juice called for in recipes. Highly
prized for their "fruity" flavor
and color, Oregon Iruits are
unique and somewhat variable
in their acid content.
Successful jellym a k i n g de
pends on a balance between the
three jelly Ingredients, pectin,
acid and sugar. Fruit naturally
contains some pectin, the sub
stance that makes jellies "jell".
Slightly underripe fruit contains
more pectin than green fruit or
fruit that is overmature, but
lacks flavor of fttlly ripened
fruit. Powdered or liquid pectin
is added to shorten the cooking
time, and to help "set" jams

Hawaiian Tour From
Oregon is Planned
Plans are underway for tours
to Hawaii In conjunction with
the forthcoming annual meeting
of the National Home Demon
stration Cfluncil, October 11
through 14, according to tsther
Kirmis, Morrow county extension
agent. The tour is being handled
by Elizabeth Beeson Stavrides of
the Beeso Travel Bureau, Wash
ington, D C.
A ten-day tour is planned, as
well as an extension of the tour
to 16 if that is preferred. The
ten-day tour includes a yacht
cruise into Pearl Harbor and
other historic points; a full day
Circle Island excusion around
Oahu to the island's scenic spec
tacles; a Luau (Hawaiian feast);
various sight-seeing drives, and
walks; and free time for shop
ping and exploring on your own.
Cost of this tour is $3-19, which
includes air tourist transporta

and return; twin-bedded room
with bath in Hawaii; transfer
from the airport in Honolulu to
hotel and vice-versa; sightseeing
by limousine with chauffeur

Cost of the entire 16 days Is i
$579. Meals outside of Honolulu
are Included in this cost, as well i
as all transfers from airports
to hotels and vice versa.
Any extension unit member, j
ner nusDana or iamuy, is wei
come to join this tour.
where fully ripened fruit Is used.
Lemon Juice or citric acid
must be added to low-acid fruits,
such as apricots, peaches and
plums so the pectin can "Jell,"
the home economist advises.
Sugar helps preserve the jelly
and adds flavor. Low calorie
sweeteners should not be substi
tuted for sugar in most recipes.
To assure perfect preserves,
follow recipes closely and avoid
pitfalls listed.
Jelly may be "cloudy" if mix
ture is poured into glasses too
slowly, cooled before it was
poured, or Juice may not have
been properly strained of all
pulp. If jelly sets too fast, it
may cloud, usually the result
of using fruit that is too green.
Soft jelly may be caused by
not using enough sugar, too
much Juice in the mixture, not'
enough acid, or making too
much jelly at a time. Soft jelly
can sometimes be made firmer,
Mrs Klippstein says. Measure 1
quart of jelly, add 4 teaspoons
of pectin, V cup sugar. Boil ft
minute. Add 2 tablespoons of
lemon juice, if more acid Is need
ed.
Sirupy jelly too little pectin,
acid or sugar. Too much sugar
can also cause sirupy jelly.
Jellies that "weep" are usually
caused by. too much add, by
covering jelly with a thick para
ffin layer of a fluctuation In stor
age temperature.
To help prevent fruit from
rising to the top in the finished
jam, stir the mixture frequently
five minutes after removing from
the heat. Fruit absorbs some of
the sugar solution and won't
float.
More help dh jam and jelly
making is offered In "How to
Make Jellies, Jams and Preserves
at Home," free on request from
our county agent's office. The
bulletin includes Instructions for
making table spreads using
liquid and powdered pectins and
old-fashioned cooking methods.
Directions for popular uncooked
spreads that can be stored In
the freezer are also given in the
bulletin.
We also have a bulletin on
"Pickle and Relish Recipes" that
you might like at this season.
Just call or write.
Many of you will be surprised
and haoDV to heat that Miss
Betty J Sedgwick, Morrow county
supervisor, has resigned her pos
ition to take the post of Wasco
county extension agent at The
Dalles.
Bettv has often expressed to
me several times that an agent
receives much more satisfaction
in working with people directly
In a county rather than once
removed in the case of a
state extension agent.
We welcome Betty, as a neigh
bor agent, to Eastern Oregon.
