About our raspberry jam

Is there anything more wonderful than a jar of fresh homemade Raspberry Jam?

Sandwiched between the layers of a Victoria Sponge, paired with clotted cream in a freshly baked scone or simply spread on a slice of crisp toast for breakfast, the possibilities are endless. What's more, you can make batches and share it with friends and family as delightful homemade gifts.

    • 1kgSilver Spoon Jam Sugar
  3. Step 3

    Place the raspberries in a non-metallic bowl and crush with a potato masher. Add the jam sugar and stir until the sugar dissolves.

    Put the mixture into a saucepan and place on a high heat, bringing the mixture to a full rolling boil, that bubbles vigorously, rises in the pan and cannot be stirred down. Once it gets to this point, start timing and boil for 4 minutes only.

When I read this recipe I thought it was too easy to work

wrong!!!! It's a great recipe and works every time. So easy even my husband now makes the jam.
Because it is boiled for such a short time it retains a wonderfully fresh flavor.
