I don't know because the jam never lasted season to season. But I would not
do paraffin as it never really seals. It always has a small ring of mold on
it. The sealing lids cost a little and give me peace of mind .

Sliced lemon is a great idea. I have made fig jam, but stopped because it
reminded me
too much of Fig Newtons. Not my favorite of cookies. But lemon would add a
zing and
cut the sweetness. Thank you!
By the way, I never can my jams. I put them in sterilized jars and seal
them shut with
a thick layer of melted parafin.

What's your shelf life for the wax-sealed ones? I remeber my grandmother
did the same with her plum jellies.
