- 4 cups sugar
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 (1 3/4-ounce) package powdered pectin
Preparation
Step 1
Mix berries and sugar in large bowl and let stand. Combine water and pectin in small saucepan and mix well. Bring to boil over high heat and boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, stir pectin into berries and continue to stir about 3 minutes. (There will be some remaining sugar crystals). Ladle quickly into clean 8 ounce glasses and cover at once with tight lids. When jam is set (it may take up to 24 hours) store in freezer. If jam is to be used within 2 or 3 weeks, it may be stored in refrigerator.
