Ingredients

  • 100 grams Fresh Raspberries (frozen will work too)
  • 75 grams Sugar
  • 1 tsp Lime Zest (optional)
  • 2 tsp Lime Juice

Instructions

  • Wash the raspberries in water and pat dry them.
  • Transfer to a pan and add sugar. Cook on low-medium heat.
  • Keep a plate or two in the deep freezer so we can use it for testing whether the jam is done.
  • Once the raspberries start to break down, mash them with a spatula. Add zest of one lime.
  • Cook for around 10 minutes and add the (preferably freshly squeezed) lime juice.
  • Test whether the jam is done as per instructions mentioned above.
  • Let cool and transfer to a sterilized jar or container.

Notes

Shelf Life and Storage: This is a small batch recipe and this quantity of jam usually stays well for a month or so. If you need to store for a longer shelf life, consider adding citric acid crystals or following the traditional canning process.
