RASPBERRY-CURRANT JAM
I often use currants instead of pectin in making jams. They add a lively tang and ensure the jam sets beautifully, especially since I use as little sugar as I can get away with. Use red currants and red raspberries together, or black currants with black raspberries.

Steps:
- Wash the currants and put them in a sauce pan with the water.
- Cover the pot and bring to a boil, stirring gently, until the currants are all popped.
- Press them through a sieve, and reserve the puree.
- Discard the skins, stems and seeds.
- Gently rinse the raspberries and drain them well.
- Mix the currant puree, raspberries and sugar in a large pot.
- Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves.
- Boil hard until the mixture almost reaches the gell stage, about 20 minutes.
- Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Remove from the heat and skim.
- Seal in sterilized jars.
- Put in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes.
