Don't mind the title of this post... A jar a day will get you to the toilet NON-STOP for sure! Haha... I made chocolate pavlovas for my friend and her sister but still had some raspberries left over in the freezer. Since the berries don't stay long and get rotten easily I came up with an idea to turn it to a jam. And I did!
How to make this jam? Easy peasy!! Oh and I mix it with a bit of strawberry to just give it a bit of body :) I can assure you this recipe is not sweet - just maybe a bit sourish from the raspberries.
Strawberry & Raspberry Jam:
Raspberries
Strawberries
1 1/2 cup of castor sugar
2 tsp. of vanilla essence
3 strips of clear jelly (agar-agar)
Methods:
- Place your berries, castor sugar and vanilla essence in a pot and heat it up in a slow fire. Stir now and then to make sure you don't burn them.
- Once everything is dissolved, add in the strips of jelly to thicken it. You can opt not to use this and it is all up to way. You don't want to over measure this else you end up having a summer berries jelly instead of jam.
- Turn off your stove and cool it in the room temperature.
- Once it is cool, scoop it into a sterile jar. Keep it in refrigerator. Serve it on bread or even with plain yoghurt ( I tried mixing it in plain natural yoghurt, it was YUMMY!)
