Raspberry Preserves

Raspberry Preserves

Raspberries are one of the seediest of berries but also one of the tastiest. Naturally occurring pectin in the berries generally assures a good set when making jam. Raspberry jam is delicious used as a cake filling, in tarts or spooned over plain yogurt. Makes 7 c. or 7 (8- fluid-oz.) jars.Wash jars in hot soapy water and rinse. Place on a rack in the sink and pour boiling water in and over each jar. Drain. Keep hot by transferring clean jars to a cookie tray and placing in a 200-degree F oven.Prepare raspberries by removing any stems and caps. Place in a sink of cold water and stir gently with your hands for 5seconds. Lift the raspberries into a colander to drain.Measure the raspberries into a 6- or 8-qt. pot. Stir the sugar into the fruit and mix well. Bring to a full rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly.
