Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Fresh raspberries
- 2 medium Green chiles (fire-roasted and peeled, chopped)
- 3 cups Granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 ounces Liquid pectin
- 1 cup Water
Instructions
Place the raspberries in a large pot and gently mash them with a potato masher or fork to release their juices.
Add the chopped green chiles, water, and lemon juice to the pot with the raspberries. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once boiling, add the granulated sugar to the pot, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
Continue to boil the mixture for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until it begins to thicken slightly.
Stir in the liquid pectin, and bring the mixture back to a rolling boil. Boil for exactly 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Remove the pot from the heat and skim off any foam from the surface using a spoon.
Carefully ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4-inch of headspace. Wipe the rims clean with a damp cloth, and seal with the lids and rings.
Process the jars in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes to ensure proper sealing. Adjust the processing time if you are at a higher altitude (follow canning guidelines).
Remove the jars from the water bath and let them cool at room temperature for 12-24 hours. Check the seals by pressing down on the lids; they should not pop back.
Store the sealed jars in a cool, dark place for up to a year. Refrigerate any jars after opening.
