Background

This blueberry and lime jam is really quick and easy to make. It has much less sugar than shop-bought jam and needs no pectin. So you know precisely what's in it and it's really tasty! You'll get three medium sized jars out of this recipe - they'll keep well if you sterilize them properly, and they make a nice gift.

Ingredients

950g blueberries
2 unwaxed limes, zest & juice
450g soft cane sugar

Instructions

Carefully wash the blueberries. Wash then collect the zest and juice of the limes.
Put the blueberries, lime zest & juice and the sugar into a large heavy-based pot.
Gradually bring to the boil, stirring gently but constantly with a wooden spoon, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for half an hour or so until it reaches setting point (see tip).
Take off the heat and allow to to cool a little before sealing into sterilized jars.

Tips

Pop a saucer in the freezer. When you're ready to do the setting test, take it out and put a teaspoon or so of the jam onto it. If its runny try again in 5 minutes; if it wrinkles when you push your finger into it then it's ready to jar.
