Hi,
Has anyone used clover instead of butter when making jam?
I forgot to buy butter and we use clover most of the time

    Adding butter or margarine would make a kind of toffee, I think?

    as long as it's not the 'lite' version I shouldn't imagine it'd make much, if any, difference

    but like the others I've never heard of butter being used in jam making
