Raspberry Jam 2 Ingredients: 450 g (1 lb) Raspberries 50 g (1 lb) Sugar 150 ml (¼ pint) Redcurrant Juice Cooking Instructions: Let the fruit for this preserve be gathered in fine weather and used as soon after it is picked as possible. Take off the stalks, put the raspberries into a preserving pan, break them up with a wooden spoon. Boil for 15 minutes, keeping them well stirred. Add the redcurrant juice and sugar and boil for 30 minutes. Skim the jam well after the sugar is added or the preserve will not be clear. The addition of the redcurrant juice is a very great improvement to this preserve, as it gives it a piquant taste, which the flavour of the raspberries seems to require. Pour into sterilised jars. Allow to cool and cover with airtight lids. Store in a dry place. |

Low Sugar Red Raspberry Jam Ingredients: 3 lbs raspberries 1/2 cup water 2 1/2 cups sugar Pomona's Universal Pectin Cooking Instructions: In a stainless steel pot, combine raspberries (whole, do not mash them) and water. Begin heating on medium high heat. Stir occasionally, then frequently as the fruit gets hot. In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon of Pomona's pectin with 2/3 cup of the sugar. Mix thoroughly. When the fruit reaches 200°F (use a candy thermometer) reduce heat to low. Slowly sprinkle in the pectin mixture while stirring. A sifter with a squeeze handle works well. Stir the fruit/pectin mix for 3 minutes. Maintain temperature at 185°F to 195°F. Do not boil. If the mixture seems very thick, add a little more water. Add the balance of the sugar while stirring. The sugar will cool the mixture. Heat as necessary to keep the jam at about 185°F. Adjust the heat to hold the jam at the filling temperature of 185°F. Skim off any foam and fill fill into sterile jars, leaving hot headspace of 1/4 inch. Headspace will increase as jam cools and shrinks. Cap each jar immediately after it is filled. Process the filled jars in a boiling water bath for 5-10 minutes. The red raspberry jam will have better color if processed for only 5 minutes, but a shorter shelf life. After processing let the jars cool undisturbed for 12 hours. |

Boil for 1 minute, stirring all the time. The mixture will turn clear. Pour over the fruit mixture and stir well for about 3 minutes. Immediately spoon into clean clear plastic containers, leaving about 1/2-inch of space at the top to allow for expansion in the freezer. Seal with lids and let stand at room temperature for 24 hours. Freeze for up to 1 year. May be refrigerated for up to 1 month. |

Raspberry Gooseberry Jam Ingredients: 2 cups tightly packed raspberries 2 cups tightly packed gooseberries, stems and tails removed 3 cups sugar 1 pinch salt Cooking Instructions: Mix fruit and sugar together in a 3 qt. or larger saucepan, stir and let stand until juice appears in the pan, about 10 minutes. If jam is to be canned, use this time to prepare jars and lids, according to manufacturer's instructions. Boil fruit and sugar to the "gel" stage, 212°F on a candy or instant-read thermometer. Remove from heat and put into prepared jars. If canning or freezing jam, leave 1/2" space at the top of each jar. Fasten lids and process in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes. (Save time and energy by using pan and hot water from sterilizing the jars). Leave jars in water bath until they cool slightly, then remove them to finish cooling. Check lids to make sure they've sealed and store in a cool dark place. |

Skim the froth off the surface and cook with a slotted spoon over a lively flame, skimming and stirring, for about 15 minutes, or until it begins to thicken. A drop placed on a cool slanted plate will flow some, but not much, when it's ready. |
