FRESH RASPBERRY FREEZER JAM



Fresh Raspberry Freezer Jam image

Raspberries are my favorite for jam next to blueberries. By making the freezer jam you will think you are eating fresh raspberries all year because they are not cooked. Yummy! NOTE: Do not use a sugar substitute and do not reduce the sugar as it won't set right.

FRESH RASPBERRY JAM



Fresh Raspberry Jam image

A fresh, fruity jam from my grandmother. She loves making jams and preserves, and they always come out perfect. Personally, I've never tried making jam because it seems a little daunting, but if you can tackle it with ease, go for it! *Prep time and cook time are the same, I'm estimating.*

Time 15m

Yield 1 1/2 pints, about

Number Of Ingredients 2

4 cups fresh raspberries
3 cups sugar

Steps:

  • Combine the raspberries with the sugar in a large saucepan.
  • Cook over high heat, stirring constantly until a jam thermometer (or candy thermometer) reaches 230*-240*F, the soft-ball stage.
  • Ladle the jam into hot, sterilized jars and seal.

Tips:

  • Choose the right raspberries: Look for ripe, plump, and brightly colored raspberries. Avoid berries that are bruised or have any signs of mold.
  • Prepare your raspberries: Rinse the raspberries gently under cold water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Remove any stems or leaves.
  • Use a large pot: As the jam cooks, it will bubble and expand. A large pot will give the jam plenty of room to expand without boiling over.
  • Stir the jam frequently: This will help to prevent the jam from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning. You can check the readiness of the jam by spooning a small amount onto a cold plate. If the jam wrinkles when you push your finger through it, it is ready.
  • Process your jam properly: To ensure that your jam is safe to store, you need to process it properly. This can be done by canning the jam or freezing it.

Conclusion:

With its vibrant color, sweet-tart flavor, and versatile applications, raspberry jam is a delicious and easy-to-make homemade treat. Whether you're spreading it on toast, using it as a filling for pastries, or simply enjoying it by the spoonful, raspberry jam is sure to bring a touch of sweetness to your life. So next time you have a surplus of fresh raspberries, be sure to try making your own batch of this classic preserve.
