Put a spoon in cold water for several minutes. Pour some of your jam onto the cold spoon while it is still boiling. When the jam is ready it should "sheet" on the spoon. That means it should not run off the spoon. It should mound up and retain its shape somewhat and should cling in a sheet to the spoon when it is held up on its side. For pictures that demonstrate this go to the National Center for Home Food Processing and Preservation (NCHFP)website.
A thermometer is not required. To test whether a jam is ready dip a cool metal spoon into the boiling jelly mixture and lift the spoon out of the steam so the syrup runs off the side. The drops will be light and syrupy at the beginning of the boiling process. Next, the drops will become heavier and will drop off the spoon two at a time. When the drops form together and "sheet" off the spoon, the jellying point has been reached.
A pot with a wide base and tall sides would be needed to prevent jam from splattering while cooking and allow for sufficient evaporation. A spoon with a long handle and a flat edge would be necessary for stirring the jam mixture evenly and scraping the bottom of the pot to prevent burning.
SPOILER She eats her own toe jam with a fork instead of a spoon.
From the word spork, remove - rk, and it will say spoon. Then tap the bottom of the fork that is shaped like a spoon.
Jam is primarily composed of sugar, making it a carbohydrate.
The fruit used in jam cannot be tested for freshness due to the fact that it has already gone through the process of being turned into jam. You can however test the freshness of the jam, by smelling the container that it comes in. Bad jam gives off a foul odor.
All you need to do is move the "rk" in "spork." You'll notice that the word turns into "spoon." Then you need to press the word "spoon", and then press the spoon. Congratulations! You have just finished The Impossible Test!!!
when the sauce becomes alittle darker and sticky on the spoon

Spin A Thread: A candy-making term that explains the thread that appears between the spoon and candy when the spoon is lifted and turned. Spin A Thread: A candy-making term that explains the thread that appears between the spoon and candy when the spoon is lifted and turned.
You move the "rk" in spork and the word will turn to spoon then tap the spoon.
