Store in refrigerator up to 3 weeks or freeze extra containers up to 1 year. If frozen, thaw in refrigerator before using.

RASPBERRY FREEZER JAM

Steps:

• Have clean and dry food storage containers or jars ready and set aside***.
• Use a dry measuring cup to measure out exact amount of crushed fruit. Pour into a large bowl, set aside.
• Measure out exact amount of sugar into a large saucepan or medium pot (I use a 4 qt). Add pectin powder and whisk to blend. Stir in water.
• Bring mixture to a full boil over medium-high heat stirring constantly. Boil exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove pan from heat.
• Immediately stir in crushed raspberries and stir 1 minute.
• Pour into prepared jars leaving at least 1/2-inch space at the top for jam to expand once frozen (otherwise jars can crack!). Cover with lids.
• Let rest at room temperature 24 hours then transfer to freezer (I save one for the fridge).
• Refrigerate up to 3 weeks or freeze up to 1 year. Once frozen thaw overnight in refrigerator.

RASPBERRY FREEZER JAM

Steps:

• *Use firm, ripe berries for the best flavor and set. (You don't want to use overripe berries or the jam may be too soft and runny.)
• Wash and rinse glass or plastic containers. How many you use depends on how big they are. This recipe makes about 7-8 cups of jam.
• Add berries to a large bowl and lightly mash them. Be careful not to over mash them---hey should still look fairly chunky, but not like whole berries.
• Measure out exactly 3 cups of mashed berries and pour them into a separate large bowl. (If you have leftover mashed berries you could freeze them for smoothies or use them for topping on pancakes or waffles.)
• Gradually stir in 1 cup of the sugar to the mashed berries, and stir until sugar is dissolved. Repeat, adding just one cup of sugar at a time and then mixing, until you use up the remaining 4 1/4 cups of sugar.Let stand for 10 minutes.
• In a small saucepan, stir together pectin with 3/4 cup water. Bring to a rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop when stirred) over medium-high heat, stirring often. Boil for one minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
• Stir pectin into the berries mixture. Continue stirring the mixture until sugar is completely dissolved and no longer grainy. This step is important! (see notes in post above).
• Pour jam into containers, leaving 1/2in of space at the top of the container, for expansion. Cover with lid and allow jam to rest at room temperature for 24 hours before freezing.
• Jam will keep for up to 3 weeks in the refrigerator, or freeze for up to one year.

RASPBERRY JAM NO PECTIN (3 INGREDIENTS)

Steps:

• Place two small ceramic plates in the freezer so we can use these to test the jam later. Alternatively, you can use a candy thermometer to check the doneness of the jam.
• Check the raspberries and remove any bad, discolored, or bruised ones. Give them a quick wash and drain in a colander.Pro tip - Soft raspberries can be used but discolored and bruised will ruin the jam. Also, don't soak berries in water for too long as they do soak up moisture.
• In a heavy bottom pan, combine the raspberries, sugar, salt, and lemon juice.
• Cook on medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Then, turn the heat up and let the mixture come to a boil. Let it boil for two minutes stirring constantly on medium-high. Pro tip - Boiling the jam is important as it releases pectin from the skin and seed in fruits.
• Then, turn the heat to medium-low. The jam should still be simmering but at a low simmer, not bubbling. Use a vegetable masher to mash the fruit - so you have a smoother jam-like consistency.Pro tip - Mashing the fruit is optional, as the fruit will break down into smaller chunks similar to preserve as it cooks. However, mashing will give smoother consistency like jam.
• Continue to simmer for about 20 to 30 minutes more stirring often so it does not stick to the bottom of the pan. The jam will continue to thicken as well as deepen in color as it cools.Pro tip - The cooking time will depend on the quantity of the jam as well as the heat applied to it. It's ok to cook a little longer but there must be a simmer for the fruit to release pectin.
