Raspberries are appreciated not only for their taste, but also for their ability to help in the treatment of many diseases. Therefore, some housewives freeze such a berry for the winter, others prepare a thick and very tasty five-minute jam from it right with whole berries.

Raspberry jam - a simple recipe

Even the simplest recipe will allow you to prepare a thick, tasty and healthy raspberry jam "five minutes" for the winter. In order for the dessert to turn out with whole berries, you need to start cooking immediately after picking the raspberries, otherwise it will let out the juice and quickly soften.

Ingredients:

• 700 g raspberries;
• 500 g of sugar.

Preparation:

• If the berries are from your own garden, then you should not wash them, since raspberries do not really like water. If you bought raspberries from the market, then we put them on a sieve and rinse them under cold water. Then we leave all the excess liquid in the glass.
• Now pour the berries into a saucepan, sprinkle with sugar. Then we leave the raspberries for 2-3 hours so that the berries let the juice start and the sugar melted a little.

• We send the pan to the fire and after boiling, cook the jam for 5 minutes. But since raspberries are a very delicate berry, and in order to preserve its integrity, you can choose a different way of preparing the dessert.
• As soon as the sugar has completely melted, we take the berries out of it, and boil the syrup over the lowest heat for 10 minutes.

• Then we return the berries to the syrup, do not mix anything and warm up for literally 3 minutes.
• Now we put the ready-made jam in jars, tighten the lids and, after cooling, put it in storage.

If there is no time to cook the jam immediately after picking the berries, then pour the raspberries with sugar and put them in the refrigerator.

Raspberry jam with lemon juice

Raspberry five-minute jam can be prepared for the winter with lemon juice, which will enhance the color of the dessert and give it a pleasant sourness. The jam turns out to be beautiful, thick, with whole berries and very tasty.

Ingredients:

• 1 kg of raspberries;
• 800 g sugar;
• 2 tsp lemon juice;
• 200 ml of water.

Preparation:

• Raspberries are carefully washed under cold water, trying to keep the berries intact. Then we dry it on a paper towel and transfer it to a saucepan.
• Pour all the sugar into the stewpan, pour in water, put on the fire and cook the syrup from the moment of boiling for 3 minutes.

Pour raspberries with hot syrup, leave the berries at room temperature for 12 hours

After the raspberries are thrown back on a sieve, the berries are returned to the pan, and the syrup is put on the fire and after boiling, cook for 10 minutes

• Pour raspberries with hot syrup and leave for 6 hours.
• After that, drain the syrup from the berries again, add lemon juice to it, stir and cook after boiling for 15 minutes.

• Fill the berries with hot syrup, leave for 6 hours, and then put on fire. We warm up the jam for literally 5 minutes.
• Put the finished dessert in jars, tighten the lids, wrap it up and, after cooling, put it in storage.

The thickness of the jam can be adjusted by the amount of sugar. If you like a more liquid consistency, then add less sugar than indicated in the recipe. And if you want to get a very thick dessert, then more than the specified norm

With citric acid

With citric acid, you can also cook a thick and tasty five-minute jam with whole berries from raspberries for the winter. Of course, it is not necessary to add citric acid, but thanks to it, the shelf life of the dessert increases. Raspberries, even after heat treatment, do not lose their rich color.

Ingredients:

• 1 kg of raspberries;
• 800 g sugar;
• 0.5 tsp citric acid.

We put the raspberries in a saucepan (each housewife decides whether to wash or not wash the berries)

• Pour sugar to the raspberries and immediately add citric acid.
• The berries can now be left intact, but they can also be mashed with a regular mashed potatoes. Such jam is good to serve not only for tea, but also as a sauce for pancakes, pancakes and other pastries.

• We leave the berries for half an hour, and then put on fire. After boiling, cook for 5 minutes, but if more berries are used, then we increase the time to 10 minutes.
• We put the finished jam directly hot in sterile jars, seal it tightly with lids.

If you want to cook jam with whole berries, then you need to wash them correctly. To do this, put the raspberries in a basin, fill them with cold water, remove all the small debris that has come up from the surface. Then we carefully take out the berries themselves with our hands.

Raspberries for the winter in their own juice

Raspberries in their own juice is the simplest recipe for making five-minute jam for the winter. The berries remain intact, and the dessert turns out to be thick and very tasty.

Ingredients:

Preparation:

• We sort out the berries, leaving only the whole fruits. If the raspberries are from your own garden, then you should not wash the berries.
• Put the raspberries in clean jars and sprinkle with sugar.

After that, we leave the jars of berries for 2-3 hours so that the raspberries let out the juice

Now we put the jars in a saucepan with warm water, and cover the bottom of the container with some kind of cloth

• We cover the jars with lids, send the pan to the fire and, after boiling, sterilize for 10 minutes.
• Then we tightly twist the jars of jam with lids, wrap it in heat and leave it until it cools completely.

Such jam can be used as a basis for the preparation of fruit drinks, compotes, used for baking, various desserts. And just with tea it will be very tasty too.

At the same time, the dessert turns out to be thick, and the berries remain intact. It is very simple and quick to make such a jam, it is practically a recipe for "five minutes".

Bring the berries to a boil, then add 1 glass of sugar and 1 glass of raspberries again. We alternate portions of sugar and berries. So the raspberries will not boil down, and the berries will remain intact

After adding the last glass of raspberries, cook the jam on the lowest heat for 5 to 15 minutes, depending on the desired thickness of the dessert

Cool the finished jam and put it in jars, close the lids and safely store the dessert at room temperature

It is better to pick raspberries for jam in the early morning or evening, as the berries heated by the bright sun will quickly give juice and become limp. We also use ripe berries for dessert. It is very simple to determine maturity - such raspberries are easily removed from the branches, without sepals.

Raspberry jam with banana

For the winter, you can prepare raspberry jam with a banana. Of course, this dessert cannot be cooked with whole berries, but this jam is so delicious that everyone should definitely try it.

• 10 g vanilla sugar;
• 30 ml of cognac.

Put the prepared raspberries in a saucepan and grind with an immersion blender

Cut the peeled bananas into pieces and send them to the grated berries along with sugar

• Stir and put on fire. After boiling, remove the foam, add vanilla sugar and brandy, mix.
• Cook the jam for 5 minutes, and then put it in sterilized jars and tighten the lids.

For jam, we choose only strong and ripe berries, since low-quality fruits will not only spoil the taste of the jam, but can also provoke the fermentation process

Raspberry and black currant jam

Raspberries go well with other berries, so we suggest preparing raspberry jam for the winter with the addition of another very useful berry - black currant. The dessert turns out to be delicious, beautiful, because the berries in the jam remain intact.

Ingredients:

• raspberries;
• black currant;
• 0.5 cups of sugar (for a 0.5 liter jar).

Preparation:

1. We sort out the raspberries, leave the whole berries. We wash the currants, remove the tails.
2. Now we take a sterile jar and lay out a layer of currants, sprinkle with sugar, then a layer of raspberries and again sugar.
3. So we alternate raspberries and black currants along with granulated sugar until the jar is completely filled with berries.
4. Then we cover the containers with a lid and leave for half an hour so that the berries give juice.
5. After 30 minutes, we put the jars with the contents in a saucepan with water and sterilize for 10 minutes from the moment of boiling. Then we tighten the lids tightly.
6. If you decide to just cook one raspberry jam, then add red currant puree, which will only enhance the raspberry flavor, and the currant acid will prevent the dessert from becoming sugared.

It is so simple and easy to prepare for the winter the most delicious raspberry jam, which housewives call "five minutes". But if you want to stock up on raspberry jam thoroughly, then you still shouldn't put more than 2 kg of berries for cooking. It is from this amount of product that the jam will turn out to be thick, aromatic and with whole berries.
