Red Raspberry Jam with Lemongrass image

If you like your raspberry jam seedless, you need more berries. You can also strain only half of the raspberries to remove some of the seeds.

Time 30m

Yield 56

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 pints fresh raspberries
2 lemongrass stalks, cut lengthwise
4 cups white sugar
1 (1.75 ounce) package fruit pectin (such as Sure-JellĀ® Pectin Light for less or no sugar)

Steps:

  • Inspect 7 half-pint jars for cracks and rings for rust; discard any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until jam is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
  • Place berries in a large pot and bring to a boil over medium heat until they release their juice. Press all or half of the berries through fine mesh strainer to remove the seeds, if desired. Measure exactly 5 cups raspberry pulp and return to the empty pot.
  • Add lemongrass and pectin to the pot with the raspberries. Slowly bring mixture to a full rolling boil. Add sugar and stir to dissolve. Return to a full rolling boil on high heat and boil for exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly. Skim off any foam with a ladle or a large spoon. Remove the lemongrass.
  • Pack raspberry jam into the prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any spills. Top with lids and tightly screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart. Let rest for 24 hours without moving the jars. Gently press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool, dark area.

I had to adjust the recipe a bit because I didn't have all of the ingredients, but it still turned out great.

This red raspberry jam with lemongrass is a delightful and unique treat. The lemongrass adds a refreshing and citrusy flavor that perfectly complements the sweetness of the raspberries.
