While the sugar content *might* be enough to impede botulism, bananas aren't a particularly acidic fruit, so it's not something I'd want to gamble on. And killing botulism requires pressure-canning temperatures, not just boiling-water level. (For more info, see, e.g., http://everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=1542272)<BR/><BR/>(Yeah, 99.99% of the time, botulism won't be a problem. It's just that the stakes seem kind of high.)<BR/><BR/>Still, that's no reason to not make the jam; just not to store it for long periods of time - and it looks tasty enough that I expect it wouldn't hang around too long! :)<BR/><BR/>PS: Honey can generally be substituted for sugar in jam recipes, although more than a cup or so can start affecting the set, depending on the recipe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805570821469912515.post-40927020951320686542008-08-22T12:55:00.000+08:002008-08-22T12:55:00.000+08:00Hi Anonymous, I would not recommend you to skip th...Hi Anonymous, I would not recommend you to skip this step.
