Raspberry Jam

Jam on the spot. I do this with all kinds of berries and it's a great way to make a small batch of jam. I have a similar recipe for strawberry jam, and I do the same for blueberry jam.

I keep the seeds in the jam, but if you prefer not or can't do seeds, use a fine metal strainer. Once the jam has fully simmered, place the metal strainer over a bowl to catch the jam and press the jam through while the strainer prevents the seeds from going through. Enjoy!

Raspberry Jam

You can use frozen raspberries as well, and really any sweetener.

The recipe makes about a cup of jam.

I like my jam thick so I simmer the jam until most of the liquid is evaporated, cool, and then refrigerate.
