Raspberry Jam Recipe

5 Cups Prepared Raspberries
Crush enough to fill air spaces
7 Cups Sugar
1 Sure Jell Pectin
Above makes about 8 cups jam

Measure sugar and keep ready.
Mix pectin with fruit, and bring to a boil using high heat.
At once add sugar.
Bring to a full boil (that cannot be stirred down).
Boil hard for one minute.
Remove from heat and skim for 5 minutes.
This helps prevent floating fruit.
Put quickly into jars leaving 1/4-inch headspace.
Clean rim and seal with rings.
Tighten rings.
Water bath in boiling water for 10 minutes.
Remove and set on newspaper to cool.
It should set in 24 hours.

You can remove some of the seeds by putting fruit through a fine wire sieve before cooking.
