A quick, low sugar jam without pectin.
Author: LydiaF
- 2 cups raspberries picked through and given a quick rinse
- 3/4 cup sugar
- juice and zest of one lime
- 1 jalapeno seeded and diced small
- 1/4 cup water
Add all the ingredients to a small saucepan and heat over medium heat.
As the fruit and sugar warms, use a potato masher to crush the fruit.
Stir to blend it all together.
Continue to heat until it is very thick and jam-like. Some bubbling is desirable, but avoid a heavy boil.
Carefully transfer to a clean container and allow to cool somewhat before placing a lid on it and storing in the fridge.
