Basic jam recipe
With Dansukker Jam Sugar, it’s easy to make perfect jam at home. You can use any berries according to availability, preference and taste. Here are three variations on the basic recipe, depending on how big a batch you want to make and how sweet you like your jam.
Ingredients
2 litres of berries (about 1 kg)
1 kg Dansukker Jam Sugar
Less sweet jam
4 litres of berries (about 2 kg)
1 kg Dansukker Jam Sugar
NB: You may need to extend the cooking time for this option.
Smaller batch of jam
500 g berries
300 ml Dansukker Jam Sugar (300 g)
Instructions
Rinse and pick over the berries. Combine the berries (cut up any large berries) and jam sugar in a pan and boil for 3-10 minutes, depending on the type of berry. The jam should be neither too solid nor too runny. Skim off any foam thoroughly, and pour into hot, very clean jars. Seal and store in a cool place.
