Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Wash 2 cups of fresh raspberries under cool water, gently removing any debris. Mash the berries to release their juices.
  2. Add 1 cup of granulated sugar and the juice of 1 fresh lemon to the raspberries. Stir gently until the sugar starts to dissolve.
  3. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring carefully. Cook for about 30 minutes.
  4. Test the jam consistency by spooning a small amount onto a chilled plate. If the jam holds its shape and wrinkles, it’s ready.
  5. Remove from heat, let cool for about 10-15 minutes, then transfer to clean, airtight jars.
