Cooking with MAVEA: Pear Vanilla Jam with Food in Jars from MAVEA Inspired Water on Vimeo.
Many months ago, I recorded a series of four canning videos for the folks at Mavea Inspired Water (I gave five of their water filters away back in February). After several months of waiting, the finished videos are ready. They’ll be posting them on the Inspired Water blog and Facebook page over the next couple of weeks and I wanted to make sure to share them with you all as well. If you’re curious how I manage to can so much in such a small kitchen, this will give you a bit of insight. Mostly, it involves a lot of pot sliding and careful balancing.
Oh, and you can find the recipe for this jam right here.
One of my favorite jam recipes!!! YUM!!!! Love the video!
Love the video! Great job!
Great vid, Marisa! Thanks for posting!

Pear Vanilla jam sounds wonderful!

LOVED all 3 videos! You are a delight to watch, and your recipes sound fabulous! Keep up the good work. Thank you!
Did you say “vanilla bean caviar” 😀 Awesome!
You;re an inspiration! Thanks for posting.
I just need to let you know how much I’m love love loving the Mavea water filter pitcher I won from you. It’s definitely increased the amount of water I drink!
nice video! this makes me long for fall when the pears will be ripe. I’m inspired by how orderly you keep your workspace and the push button stove.
I’ve been reading your blog for a while, and have preserved some whole fruits and have even made an apple butter, but tonight I was inspired by your video to make my first foray into jam… and it came out wonderfully! I found the video visuals really helpful, so thank you!
Really want to make this jam. Where can you buy vanilla at a reasonable price? At my local supermarket they want $11 for one.
Michaela, I just did a post on that! It’s here: https://foodinjars.com.s164546.gridserver.com/arugulapesto/2011/05/canning-101-how-to-split-and-scrape-a-vanilla-bean/
Thanks for posting this!! Ha ha, this is going to sound really stupid but I *just* started canning (have done a few recipes) and have always had trouble with the jar lifter – watching you made me realize I was using the wrong end! Oups!! And thanks for making my future canning life easier 😉
Well done!
