Loganberry Jam
Ingredients
1.35 kg Loganberries
1.35 kg Granulated white sugar
Method
Put the fruit in a preserving pan and place on a low heat. Do not stir, just leave until the juices run. Shake the pan or stir gently to avoid the the fruit sticking. Cook gently for about 20 minutes.
While that is happening, put the sugar into an oven-proof dish place in the oven to warm - temperature 150�C. Also put 5 1lb jam jars in the oven to heat. Place 2 small plates in the fridge to use to test for setting.
Once the fruit is cooked, tip the warmed sugar into the pan and dissolve the sugar completely. Then turn up the heat and boil rapidly for 10 minutes. Test for a set by spooning a small amount of the jam onto a plate from the fridge and if it forms a crinkly skin when pushed with a finger, it is set. If not boil for another few minutes and test again.
Pour the jam into the warmed jars and seal.
