Homemade jam is so much better than store bought jam. It doesn't have to hard to make, in fact I've had students who have made extremely successful jam.
Ingredients
3 3/4 cup crush or pureed raspberry
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 Certo liquid pectin
6 1/2 cups Sugar
2 Tbsp butter
Directions
- Prepare fruit by washing, hulling, de-seed fruit. Then using a food processor crush or puree
- In a large sauce pan stir together prepared fruit, sugar and lemon juice
- Add butter and continue to stir
- Bring to a boil over high heat
- Boil hard for 1 minute
- Remove from heat and stir in Certo Liquid pectin.
- Stir and skim excess foam for 5 minutes to prevent fruit from floating.
