  • My raspberry jam recipe means you can quickly and easily enjoy fresh homemade raspberry jam without having to make 30 jars at once! Instead, this jam recipe makes two small jars worth - or one big jar! This is a great way to use up any fruit that's going out of date, and I love to make this jam when I find berries on special offer in the supermarket!
    I've decided to show you my small batch method of making jam with this raspberry jam, but you can substitute the raspberries for any other fruit or berries!
    Ratios:
    I work on a 4:3 ratio of fruit to sugar. I used 400 grams of raspberries, so this calls for 300 grams of sugar. To work this out easily, simply divide the weight of your fruit by 4, then multiply by 3. This will give you the weight of sugar required!
    For the lemon juice, the ratio is for every 100 grams of fruit, you need 1/2 tbsp. lemon juice. For 400 grams of raspberries, I used 2 tbsp. lemon juice.

    INGREDIENTS
    Check the ratios above if you want to make more or less jam! For 580ml jam, you'll need:
    400 grams berries or fruit (I'm using raspberries!)
    2-3 tbsp. vinegar
    300 grams sugar
    2 tbsp. lemon juice

    This is so much less intimidating than traditional jam methods! I have limited pantry storage at home and this is perfect to make just enough😍 I also love the tip about using up fruit in the fridge that is nearing its end! I am embarassingly famous for not getting through all my produce before it turns and love any recipes that help reduce food waste! I loved your quick pickling episode for the same reason! Thank you! 🙌

    Thanks this is great simple video! I just bought 250g raspberries at a supermarket plus jam preserving jars (as i violent remember if I had any?!) I bought some gorgeous raspberry jam off a fram in uk and after that no matter how expensive the jam/preserve is in the supermarket or how much fruit it still doesn't taste as good a she one I bought at a farm so I've decided make my own jam! Ill report back how it goes. Thanks P.S. Off topic you have such lovely healthy looking skin and happy smile.

      You can! Make sure you’re using proper canning jars with sealable ring lids. Boil for 10 minutes if using 4-, 8- or 12-ounce jars or for 15 minutes if using 16-ounce jars. Leave them in the water for 10 minutes before removing.
      If you only make a few jars, these do keep well for a few months if you seal them the way I’ve advised in the video, but if you’re doing larger batches, pressure canning is advised for longer shelf life!

    • @BlackCatKitchen
      @BlackCatKitchen  Před 11 měsíci +1

      Thanks for the question! If I am using traditional mason jars, I tighten the rings to finger tight, then flip the jars over to allow the heat of the jam to seal them. I've never had an issue with using this method, but always make sure to check that the seal is tight once flipped back over, and check for any white spores once you open the jar. 😻😻

    • @BlackCatKitchen
      @BlackCatKitchen  Před rokem

      Most fruits naturally have pectin, and the lemon juice helps bring it out! I've always found that I've never had to add additional pectin to my jams! The sugar with additional pectin is a lot more expensive than a standard bag of sugar and the little amount of lemon juice you need, so you could try it, but you'll be paying more! I wouldn't bother with the specialty sugar! 😻😻

    • @BlackCatKitchen
      @BlackCatKitchen  Před 4 měsíci

      You can use monk fruit sugar, but you’ll want to use far less than the ratio suggests in this video. I’d recommend 1/8-1/4 of the monk fruit sugar to a full measure of the berries. So if you had 400g of berries, you’d want to use 50-100g of the monk fruit sugar. You may also need to cook it down a little longer until it thickens on a cold plate. You’ve inspired me, I’ll try to pull together a recipe using monk fruit sugar! 😻

      That is so annoying. I hate when that happens - I’m sorry it happened to you! Vinegar will work, but because it’s so much stronger than lemon juice, you’d only need half the amount. Even still, I’m sure it’ll be nice! Let me know once you have had a proper taste test! 😻😻

      I used two small Weck jars for this recipe, one of which will hold around 290ml of jam. Based on the 400 grams of raspberries and 300 grams of sugar shown in the video, this will make approximately 600ml of jam. Providing you stick to the ratios, you can make as little, or as much jam as you want! It all depends on how much fruit you have! 🍓 I hope you enjoy your small batch jam! 💖😻
