INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups crushed berries (1 quart)
- 4 cups (1 3/4 lb.) sugar
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 box powdered fruit pectin
DIRECTIONS
Add sugar to fruit and stir well. In a sauce pan, boil 3/4 cup water and the fruit pectin for one minute, stirring constantly. Add the hot pectin and water to the fruit and continue stirring 3 minutes. Put in containers, let stand 24 hours and store in freezer.
ANOTHER TIP!
If there is not time to make your jam tonight (or maybe you’d rather not be cooking), here’s a great idea! Wash, stem and slice the berries then blend them.
They won’t take up as much space in your freezer, and 2 cups of the blended berries makes one jam recipe any time you want “fresh” jam.
