Title: Angela's "flexible" Jam
Categories: Fruits, Condiments
Yield: 5 Servings
900 g (prepared weight) fruit;
- blackberries, plums,
- raspberries, strawberries
900 g Golden granulated sugar
Knob of butter
Put the fruit into a preserving pan or large heavy-based
saucepan. For blackberries, add 50ml of water and 1 1/2
tb of lemon juice; for plums (halved and stoned), use
150ml of water; for strawberries, add 3 tbsp of lemon
juice (no water); and for raspberries, add nothing.
Bring to the boil.
Lower the heat. For blackberries, simmer for 15 minutes;
for plums, simmer for 30-40 minutes; for raspberries,
simmer for 2 minutes; for strawberries, simmer for 5
minutes. The fruit should be soft.
Tip in the sugar, stir over a very low heat until the
sugar has completely dissolved. Raise the heat, bring to
a full rolling boil, then rapidly boil blackberries for
10-12 minutes, plums for 10 minutes, raspberries for 5
minutes or strawberries for 20-25 minutes - don’t stir
though - until the setting point of 220ºF/105ºC is
reached.
Remove from the heat, skim off any excess scum, then
stir a knob of butter across the surface (this helps to
dissolve any remaining scum). Leave for about 15 mins so
the fruit can settle. Pour into sterilised jars, label
and seal.
