How to Make Bumbleberry Jam

  1. Sterilize six 250ml jars by your preferred method (e.g., baking at 225°F (107°C) for 20 minutes).
  2. Heat the jar lids in warm (not boiling) water until pliable.
  3. Combine the mixed berries in a large stainless steel saucepan.
  4. Add 6 cups (1200g) of granulated sugar all at once. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves.
  5. Reduce heat to medium and add 1/2 teaspoon of butter (optional) to reduce foaming.
  6. Boil hard for exactly one minute, stirring continuously.
  7. Remove from heat and stir in the pectin for 3 minutes to ensure it's fully incorporated.
  8. Quickly ladle the hot jam into the sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
  9. Wipe the jar rims clean, place lids and rings on jars, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust processing time based on your altitude).
  10. Let the jars cool completely. You should hear a 'pop' sound as the jars seal. Check for proper sealing by pressing on the center of the lid – it shouldn't flex.
