Gooseberry Jam |
Ingredients
- 6 lbs (2.7 kg) gooseberries
- 4 lbs (1.8 kg) sugar
- Half a pint of redcurrant juice
Method
- Bring the gooseberries slowly to the boil in the water
- Boil for 10 minutes
- Add the sugar and redcurrant juice
- Skim off the scum
- Boil until well set
- Test by placing a small amount on a saucer, letting it cool, and then drawing your finger across the top. If the surface wrinkles, there is a skin and the jam will set.
- Use clean dry jars warmed and sterilised in a cool oven.
- Use a small jug to pour the jam into the jars.
- Put the lids on.
