Raspberry jam from raspberries for winter

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   Prepare the ingredients for the jam. If the berries are not from your site, purchased in a store, then they can be gently rinsed with water, thrown into a colander and dried.

   We carefully sort the berries, remove the garbage and damaged berries. You can also hold raspberries in salted water for about 10 minutes to make sure that there are no worms left in the berries, they will pop up.

3. Step 3:

   

   We rub the berries with a manual wooden or metal pusher or punch them with a blender. If you want raspberry jam to turn out homogeneous without seeds, then you can rub the berries through a sieve to remove the seeds. Raspberry puree is covered with sugar, stir so that the sugar dissolves faster. To taste, the amount of sugar can be increased or decreased. We leave the raspberry puree with sugar for a couple of hours at room temperature, the container is covered with a lid.

   Then put the berry mass on the fire. Boil raspberries with sugar for about five minutes on low heat, stirring constantly with a spatula. Turn off the fire, let the workpiece cool down.

   Reheat the raspberry mass over low heat for about five minutes from the moment of boiling. The foam formed on the surface of the mixture is removed with a slotted spoon. Turn off the fire again.

   Repeat the procedure for the third time, but add a bag of pectin to the container with raspberry jam. Immediately mix and warm over medium heat for five minutes.

8. Step 7:

   

   We lay out the hot jam in pre-prepared washed and sterilized jars. We close the jars with dense sterile lids. Let the jam cool down at room temperature and put it away for storage in a cool pantry or refrigerator. Although due to the large amount of sugar, which is a good preservative, jam can be safely stored at room temperature.
