Can dry pectin be substituted for liquid?

Question

I read on the instructions to the dry pectin that I have it says "dry pectin cannot be substituted in recipes designed for liquid pectin". Yet in similar recipes online I find some call for dry and some call for liquid. I want to make this recipe: http://www.finerkitchens.com/swap/forum1/90321_REC_Spicy_Peach_Preserves

And I have a huge stainless steel bowl full of peeled and sliced peaches. I only have dry. Can I use dry???

Does someone have a recipe for peach preserves that call for dry pectin????

Thanks!

2 tablespoons liquid pectin = 4 teaspoons powdered pectin

Edit: Lol, I do my best.

Answer 3

Yes, you can interchange the two, although in my experience I find the liquid works much better.

A recipe should be in yoru box of Sure-Jell or other brand of pectin.  That woudl be the best to follow, as you kno w it has been tested with their dry pectin powder.
