How to Make Mixed Berry Jam

  1. Combine 1 kg mixed berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, etc.), 700g granulated sugar, and the juice of 1 lemon in a large saucepan over medium-high heat.
  2. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low.
  3. Continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, for 20-30 minutes, or until the jam thickens to your desired consistency. A good test is to spoon a small amount onto a chilled plate; if it wrinkles when pushed with a finger, it's ready.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  5. Pour the cooled jam into airtight plastic containers, leaving a little space at the top.
  6. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before serving.
