Step-by-step recipe for making jelly-like raspberry jam

Raspberries are a sweet and aromatic berry, so jam made from them is considered one of the most delicious types of dessert for the winter. Berries are prepared for the winter in different ways. Jelly-like raspberry jam is popular; the recipe for its preparation is simple and does not require special culinary skills. This preparation can be used as a filling for baked goods.


Cooking features

To prepare jelly raspberry jam, you should follow the recommendations:

  1. The berry does not like water, so it is not recommended to wash it.You can sort through and remove the stalks. If the raspberries were picked after rain, it is recommended to wash them under a thin stream of water, but only so that the fruits do not absorb a lot of moisture. Immediately place the raspberries in a sieve to drain the liquid.
  2. Pour the jam into chilled jars, without adding 7 mm to the edge of the container.

To preserve the bright raspberry color, the finished dessert must be quickly cooled - dip the rolled jam into ice water. Thanks to this method, the jelly dessert will retain the raspberry flavor.

Specifics of product selection

In order for the jelly jam to be tasty, the berries should be picked and prepared correctly. To prepare a jelly dessert, you need to take a dense whole berry. The raspberries should be ripe, but not overripe. More suitable fruits are medium sized and dark in color.

The optimal time for picking is dry weather, since after rain the raspberries will become watery and unattractive.

If the berry is damaged by larvae or bugs, it should be cleaned.

To do this, place it in a colander and immerse it in a solution of salt and water (1 teaspoon of salt per 1 liter of water) for 15 minutes. All insects will leave the “raspberry house”; the berries will only need to be rinsed. Processing begins immediately, since raspberries quickly deteriorate, even in the refrigerator.

Kitchenware

Previously, jam was cooked in copper basins, but copper utensils are not suitable for cooking dessert, since copper oxides can penetrate into the delicacy. Raspberries are a sour berry, and oxides are formed when sour fruits are cooked.Thus, the minimum volume of copper ions leads to the breakdown of ascorbic acid, which means the absence of vitamins in such a dish after cooking.

An aluminum basin is also not recommended for dessert, since the increased acidity of the delicacy has a detrimental effect on the oxide film that forms on the metal surface. Dessert with aluminum is not healthy.

It is necessary to cook the jelly dessert in a vessel with a wide bottom. Use a stainless steel or enameled pan. Banks are also being prepared. They are washed and sterilized. The lids are boiling.

How to make jelly raspberry jam?

To prepare the dessert, you need to follow the steps:

  1. The berries are well sorted and placed in a suitable enamel cauldron.
  2. Raspberries are covered with 2/3 sand and set aside for 2 hours. This time is enough for the fruits to release juice.
  3. Place the pan over low heat, bring to a boil, and stir until all the sand dissolves. Foam is removed from the liquid.
  4. When the mixture boils, the jam needs to be cooked for 5 minutes. Then the pan is removed from the stove, the dish is completely cooled.
  5. The remaining sand is added to the mixture. Again, you need the jam to boil, then cook for 5 minutes.
  6. Next, quickly cool the pan by immersing it in cold water with ice.
  7. After cooling, the dessert is placed in sterile jars and closed with lids.

Storage conditions and periods

Raspberry jam can be stored for about a year if the recipe and temperature conditions are followed. Storage in the refrigerator can last up to 2 years, at room temperature it can be stored for up to 3, but then the dessert loses its beneficial properties and quickly deteriorates.

It is worth remembering that the shelf life is affected by the concentration of granulated sugar, metal lids, and the conditions under which the dessert is stored.

It is recommended to put the jam in a cool place where the temperature remains the same, then the delicacy will retain its excellent taste for a long time.
