    I haven't actually made this recipe, but it gave me the idea to rescue my freezer jam that didn't set. I just stirred some chia seeds into it, and in five or ten minutes, it had jelled. If I make this recipe, I think I'll cut back on the sugar for a fresher taste. Thanks, WII27MLC, for posting this! - 6/23/15
