Raspberry Jam


A quick and easy jam to make.


We went picking raspberries at 
a U-Pick near home,
with family and friends. 
Raspberry season goes by fast,
it's only a few weeks in August.











I made this delicious Raspberry Jam 





Ingredients
6 cups Raspberries
3 cups Sugar.
2 tsp. lemon juice



Combine raspberries,
 sugar and lemon juice, in a large pot. 
Mash together with a potato masher.
Bring to boiling, stirring occasionally 
until sugar dissolves. 

Simmer for another 10 minutes, or until
 jam is brought to the jelly point.
(Pour a small amount of jam on a cold plate 
and transfer to freezer, for 2 to 3 minutes.
If mixture gels, it is ready. If not, return and
cook longer.)
Do a taste test to see if it is sweet enough.
I like mine tart.



Pour into hot sterilized jars and seal.
