Ingredients
Directions
- Peel fruit then cut into small pieces. Toss in sugar, leave for 1-2 hours or overnight in the fridge wrapped in plastic to macerate. Start at 52g sugar per pound of fruit. Add more after the macerating process if necessary.
- *Simmering time will vary based on the amount of fruit used. For 1 pound of fruit expect it to take around 15-20 minutes. Optional for raspberries: ½ cup (104g) sugar for every pound of fruit.
- Put macerated fruit in a pot, add 2 Tbsp of acid to activate pectin, the chemical that activates the thickening of fruit.
- Cool in a metal bowl and ice bath set up.
- OPTIONAL: Strain seedy berry jams through sieve or chinois if needed
- Store and use as needed.
