I started growing raspberries and blackberries last year. This is the first jam I've ever made and I am addicted to its deliciousness.

The fragrance and flavor is great if you use granulated sugar. I usually use lemon juice. I used citric acid once because I read in a book that it really brings out the savory flavor of the fruit, but I couldn't really tell any difference. (Apparently you can substitute lemon juice for kiwi or fig) You should use a pot that can withstand acidity, such as an enameled or stainless steel pot (thought enameled is best). This is quite sweet and sour, so if you want a sweeter jam, taste it in Step 4 and adjust the amount of sugar. Recipe by Genpokin

Ingredients

200 gramsRaspberries
100 gramsGranulated sugar

Cooking Instructions

1

If you're able to gather the berries bit by bit, then wash them well. Pat dry with a towel, place into a freezer baggie, and freeze for later. Once you have enough berries, you can make the jam. (If you only want to make a small amount, blast in a microwave.)
2

Place the raspberries, granulated sugar, and citric acid (lemon juice) into a pot. Mix them in without shaking the pot. Cover and leave for 30 minutes. If using frozen berries, use them as is.
3

The berries will release some juice. Turn the heat to low and start cooking. After 5 minutes, more juice will be released, so stir it up with a wooden spoon. Simmer for 10 minutes while occasionally stirring. (Watch the pot so it doesn't boil over.)
4

After Step 4, increase the heat to medium or high heat to let the scum rise to the surface. Remove the scum just once. Use a wooden spoon to stir until it reaches your preferred thickness. While still hot, pour into a sterilized jar and flip it upside down to cool.
5

As it cools, it will thicken even more, so you should stop cooking it while it is still runny. If it seems too watery after it has cooled, boil it again.
6

You should wash the jar well and rinse it with hot, just-boiled water beforehand. The best method might be to boil it. We usually finish ours in a couple of weeks, so I can't say exactly how long it'll keep!

Blackberry Jam

There are blackberries that grow in my backyard every year and I wanted to eat them somehow, so I turned them into a jar of jam.Don't blend too much or crush the seeds. The hard, little seeds can leave a taste in your mouth, so strain the berries to remove them as much as possible.I rarely see blackberries being sold in supermarkets here where I live, but you can easily grow your own outside on the balcony. They have sharp thorns, but they will grow into such sweet berries. Recipe by cafe-cafe.

For children to remember.Since the jam thickens as it cools, if you boil it down exactly to your ideal consistency, it will become too thick. Stop just before it reaches the ideal thickness. Recipe by cafe-cafe

Lemon Jam

We received a lot of freshly picked lemons as a gift.The cooking time will vary depending on how strong the heat is, so adjust.By not simmering it for too long, you can preserve the fragrance and color of the lemons.If you leave the white pith, it will be bitter. Thinly peel off just the zest using a vegetable peeler.You don't have to parboil the zest - it will still be delicious. Recipe by Yukijirushi

A picture of Fig Jam.

Fig Jam

Figs are in season, so I decided to make jam out of them!Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking – you could decrease the amount if you want, but if you plan on keeping the jam for a long time be sure to use an amount of sugar that's over 50% of the weight of the figs. Recipe by uzukaji. (Yields two 170 g jars.)

A picture of Mulberry Jam.

Mulberry Jam

I came up with this recipe after 9 years of experimentation. I wonder if the mulberry tree in the courtyard of my alma mater is still bearing fruit.Since snipping off the stems does not remove the part that is inside the berry, I've discovered this method. Since the berries are separated from the stem, there's no need for a blender or food processor. Recipe by Iguanano egao

Fig Jam

My family is separated into those who eat figs plain and those who like them as a jam, but only a few of us like them plain so they go bad fairly quickly. This is why I made them into a jam that can be stored.The amount of sugar will depend on the sweetness of the figs, so adjust as needed. Ripe figs are pretty sweet, so please add more lemon juice. In Step 4, be careful not to let it boil down too much. Recipe by Nu-shi. (Uses 1 pack of 5 small figs.)

Strawberry Banana Jam

I love "Gomekochan's" banana jam, and I thought it would be the perfect match with a strawberry jam so I made this recipe!You can make this jam quickly, unlike normal strawberry jam where you have to leave it for a while.It will be very sweet if you use ripened bananas.It is very easy for the jam to scorch, so please stir while boiling it down.

Easy Strawberry Jam

I always make strawberry jam at this time of year. Homemade strawberry jam is delicious.Even if the jam is runny after simmering for 10-15 minutes, it will thicken when cooled. If it still doesn't thicken, simmer a bit more.It has quite a mild sweetness, so you can enjoy it in many ways, on bread, with yogurt, in desserts, etc. Recipe by pastis009

A picture of Pineapple Jam.

Pineapple Jam

I made these for the filling for my pineapple tarts, but you can use it like normal jam for sandwiches or cakes. It's a simple recipe passed down in my family. The amount of sugar can be adjusted to your liking. The half ripe pineapples give the jam a slight sour taste, so if you prefer you can use ripe ones.

Easy Cranberry Jam

I bought some fresh cranberries at Costco, but if you eat them fresh, they're not sweet.So, I made them into jam.While heating, mix gently with a silicone spatula to prevent it from burning.This time, I used 180 g of sugar, which is half the weight of the cranberries. Modify the amount of sugar as you like. Recipe by Butausagi!

Tart and Delicious Lemon Jam

The jam from the local sightseeing farm was so delicious, so I wanted to try making it myself.Before this, I had never had lemon jam.When cool, it's nice and thick, so stop cooking it when it gets to the point where it seems just a bit too runny. This time, I made sweet lemon peels from the lemon peel by taking it out along the way and boiling it many times, so the amount of lemon peel has been reduced. It's okay even without lemon peels.

Frozen Strawberry Jam

I wasn't planning to make jam but I forgot to put the frozen strawberries I bought in the freezer, so I needed an emergency rescue.Please make it with 3 times this amount.The sugar is about 40 to 60% of the strawberries in weight. Please adjust the amount to taste.Try adding an equal amount of blueberries for a mixed berry jam.This jam is great on bread and scones of course, as well as on yogurt or ice cream.The procedure is the same using fresh strawberries.
