How thick does this get? I made 12 4oz jars and mine was kind of thick
ReplyDeletecan't wait to put it in my Christmas basket with Red Hot Cinnamon Cuke Rings.
It does get pretty thick, but it does thin out some when it is reheated. Luckily here at altitude I have to really work hard to get anything to get "thick".....like jelly. I guess if it is too thick after it is reheated just thin it out with a little water?
