Fresh Raspberry Jam

Nigella Lawson
This is the easiest jam you will ever make-I guarantee it! It totally tastes like summer in a jar, ruby red, sweet and richly raspberry. For a busy mom who wants a delicious and quick spread, this is it.

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 pint of raspberries preferably organic
  • 1 cup organic sugar
  • 1 eight oz. jar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350.
  • Pour sugar into a glass pie plate or ovenproof bowl.
  • Pour the raspberries into a 2nd pie plate.
  • Put both in the oven and cook for 20-25 minutes so that they are very hot. The sugar will often look the same as when you put it in the oven but it is molten-hot! Keep away from the kids!
  • Now, remove the 2 pie plates from the oven and carefully pour the hot sugar over the hot raspberries. The raspberries will melt from the heat of the sugar into a ruby red lake of pure raspberry heaven.
  • Pour this into your very clean glass jar and let it cool. It will thicken as it cools.
  • Put the jar in the fridge and enjoy the most intense and flavorful jam you have ever eaten!
  • Spoon it over a cheesecake or ice cream, slather it on a scone, sandwich it between cake layers or do what I do and eat it with a spoon!
