One of my favourite jams
is Raspberry.
This is a small batch
and easy to make.
Ingredients:
4 cups raspberries
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 tbsp lemon juice
This recipe yields 3 1/2 jars
Rinse the raspberries in cold water,
(do not soak)
Place the raspberries, sugar and
lemon juice in a large pot.
With a potato masher, mash all together.
Bring to a boil and cook on low heat for 12-15 minutes.
Do not boil longer or the jam will be too thick.
The jam will look thin,
it thickens as it cools.
Taste the jam and adjust
the sugar to your liking.
Ladel into jars.
I made 3 1/2 jars with this recipe.

ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteI love your recipe! I know a lot of people are down on sugar, I'm more down on all the extra preservatives and jell enhancers. This is wonderful, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThanks Connie for your visit. I agree with you I don't care for those other preservatives or jell enhancers. I find the jam more natural with sugar. A little sugar now and then is a good thing.
DeleteThis sounds like a marvelous recipe, Thelma! It just has simple ingredients, which are best! Many blessings to you, happy to meet you :)

ReplyDeleteI so love raspberries. You have some pretty jarred ones to enjoy that's for sure. I love those ritz crackers with jam also.
ReplyDeleteTambién es una de mis mermeladas favoritas, tengo congeladas para hacerla. Besos.
ReplyDeleteI have never made raspberry jam, but it is one of my favorites as well. This year I have become obsessed with blackberries, so I should try making blackberry jam at some point.
