T P Kitchen Review & Giveaway

Do you remember what it was like to go berry picking when you were young? How you could already smell and taste them, before you'd go in to pick it off the plant, just waiting to pop it into your mouth.

When I received the package from T P Kitchen, that's exactly how I felt! I hurried to open the box, knowing what was inside, so I could have a taste.

The first thing I want to tell you about this jam I received is that it is packaged incredibly well. When you order something from The Oregon Jam Lady at T P Kitchen, if it arrives damaged, it won't be their fault. My jam jar was nestled and well protected in the box it was sent in.

Upon opening the jar, it was immediately apparent that fresh, whole berries had gone into the making of this jam. The Oregon Jam Lady and her children, pick all the berries themselves in the hills of the Oregon coast.

All of her products are made in her fully licensed Department of Agriculture kitchen, in small batches, which retains the flavor and texture of the berries.

I got to try the variety with seeds, but it is also available without seeds (which is still a whole fruit jam, the seeds are just pressed out). The only other ingredients in this delicious jam, are sugar and pectin. It is available to purchase with Splenda, if sugar content is a concern for you. I love the fact that it is naturally organic too.

After having enjoyed it on toast for breakfast for a few mornings, I think I will try some of the other ways, The Oregon Jam Lady suggests using her best selling jam. One of them is to use it on oatmeal (breakfast is quickly becoming my favorite meal of the day). She also has an ice cream recipe on her site, and instructions on how to make a milk shake with it.

This jam is only one of the varieties she sells on her site. Huckleberry is another. She also sells jellies, oils, gift baskets, candy bark and chocolate spoons! Her jams start at just $4.79 for a 9oz jar. It is so worth the cost to order and have shipped!! This jam is yummy.

The Oregon Jam Lady at T P Kitchens is wanting you to have the finest homemade jam in Oregon! She is sponsoring a 2 Jam Gift Pack here on Three Different Directions. The random commenter will receive One Jar of the Wild Oregon Blackberry Jam and One Jar of the Wild Huckleberry Jam.

I must say that I love seedless, blackberry jam. It's a little bit of a task to find it around my area so, it's good to know I can order some quality, tasty jam when I run out.

With that being said, I'm also loving the Oregon Blueberry jam. I cannot find blueberry jam ANYWHERE around my area. This jam looks mouth-watering!

Being a huge fan of Strawberry Rhubarb Pie, naturally I'd go with the Strawberry Rhubarb Jam. I've never seen that before and the Oregon Jam Lady should be commended for her originality.

I love pomegranate so that would be the flavor that I'd want other than these.

February 17, 2009 | Unregistered Commentersuburban prep

Pomegranate jelly, yummmmmmmmm. Or at least, it sounds yum. Just had dark chocoloate covered pomegranates for the first time on Sunday. To die for. Thinking jam would be almost as good, especially if it was spread on chocolate bread.
I need to go get something to wipe the drool of my computer...
