This should be 'Declared Illegal!' Done as 'Freezer Jam' you have no idea what "Good Eats" really means over Vanilla 'I Scream for Ice Cream.'

To remove air bubbles you can tap it on the counter gently or...preferred...run a skewer through it to pop the bubbles. and yes! I would definitely freeze this if canning isn't for you!
