Raspberries - juicy sweet berry with small seeds. To make the treat more homogeneous, you can rub the raspberry mixture through a sieve. Raspberries contain a lot of juice, so it is recommended to prepare a viscous syrup so that the jam does not turn out to be liquid.
Useful composition
Some chefs care about how much to cook raspberry jam. The point is not so much in the aesthetic form (liquid or dense treat), as in the beneficial properties remaining after cooking. Vitamin C begins to break down already at 60 ° C, after cooking, only 5-10% remains. The remaining vitamins lose 15-50% of the total content.
This does not mean that raspberry jam is a useless treat. The berries retain pectin, fiber, trace elements. If the gourmet is worried about the benefits, it is better to grind raspberries and sugar without cooking. In the process of conservation, the berries will turn into syrup, but they will retain most of the nutrients. The table shows the chemical composition of heat-treated raspberries.

Reviews: "My children are always delighted"
Raspberry jam is very healthy, and by the way currant. In vain that someone thinks that there are no vitamins. Of course, the vitamins in these jams are not as fresh as I was in the summer season, but it’s decent to raise immunity and recover from colds. I always make jam and add less sugar than required, about a third. And cook no more than 5-10 minutes, depending on the berry. It turns out just stunning. The berries are as fresh. Nothing is sour. It costs itself a year or two the freshest. It’s just that banks need to be sterilized well. It can easily turn sour from this.

The jam starts to ferment if you initially put in insufficient sugar. Put the jam in a bowl, add sugar and boil. That's all.If the jam is cooked correctly, it will be stored in the 40 degree heat. First cover with parchment paper and a nylon cover on top.

Grated berries with sugar do not tolerate metalics - oxidation is under way, so boil raspberries with sugar, and then again under a plastic cover and in the cold. So all the berries love. And even better - put a small layer in a plastic bag and in the freezer for 5-6 days (flat), then shake it and take up little space. And in winter to defrost - almost fresh berries. My children are always thrilled.
