General cooking principles

To make jelly, you will need not only raspberries and their sweetener, but also containers in which you put all this, as well as lids. After all, these containers need to be closed with something. We advise you to choose the smallest jars for such a tab, so that it is convenient to serve the jelly in portions. Believe me, it is not very convenient to get it out of a 3-liter can.

After you have purchased containers, you need to prepare them for work. To do this, first of all, you need to thoroughly wash them, first with detergent and water, and then replace the first component with soda. The washed containers must be rinsed with running water, then sterilized.

You can sterilize in the microwave, oven, as well as on the stove in boiling water. In the first two cases, you will need already washed jars. They must be placed inside the device for a quarter of an hour at maximum power and at one hundred degrees Celsius, respectively. The third case involves the usual boiling of containers in water.

Raspberry jelly is not only tasty, but also healthy food, loved from childhood, because raspberries are just a storehouse of elements valuable for the human body, raspberry jelly can be prepared both from fresh berries, and using frozen or canned ones and enjoy a wonderful delicacy round year.

How to make raspberry jelly.

It is rich in pectin content, which has the ability to thicken the dish without adding gelatin and regardless of the recipe chosen, there are general stages of its preparation.

Any fruit and berry jelly is a canned food, which means that the first necessary action before cooking is washing and sterilizing the cans for the finished dish. The raspberry product does not require any separate recommendations for the preparation of containers for conservation, it is enough to boil the jars for 15 - 20 minutes and dry thoroughly.

Let's start making raspberry jelly

In parallel with boiling the raspberry jelly container, you can start washing the berries. You can get juice from berries in the old fashioned way: squeezing it from softened fruits. If you have a blender or juicer, the process will be greatly simplified.

After the juice for the raspberry jelly is ready, you should start making the berry puree. To do this, it is necessary to boil the raw materials over low heat for ten minutes without covering the pan with a lid, then increase the heat to medium and continue cooking until the remaining berry lumps are completely softened.

Thorough filtering of the resulting food through several layers of gauze is an important point for obtaining pure nectar without the presence of berry sediment or stone waste.

Now it's time to sweeten the semi-finished product. You need to add sugar to the mashed potatoes at the rate of 1 to 1, depending on which raspberry is jelly made: fresh, defrosted or canned. If there is no need for sweetness of the product, you can reduce the sugar dose, but not go beyond the proportion of ¾ sweetener to 1.

After adding granulated sugar, the mixture must be boiled in order to completely dissolve the sugar in the dessert. This process should take place over low heat, with control and constant stirring of the puree. Having brought the food to a boil, it must be cooked for another 5 minutes, observing the consistency. After dissolving the sugar, reduce the fire to the very minimum and boil the dish for 10 - 15 minutes, not allowing the product to boil. If there is no possibility of constant monitoring of the process, you can conduct it on a steam bath.

Mandatory check if the cooked raspberry jelly thickens

The next step is to check the thickening of the semi-finished raspberry jelly. To do this, scoop up the mixture with a spoon and, raising it higher above the pan, pour the almost finished raspberry jelly back. The duration of further cooking depends on the viscosity at this stage. If the substance of raspberry jelly is not at all jelly and is too liquid, it is worth continuing the cooking, remembering that when it cools, the hot food always thickens a little. Having brought the jelly to the desired consistency, it can be poured into sterile jars.

If desired, raspberry jelly can be consumed the next day, the jars can be closed with plastic lids and stored in the refrigerator.

You need the following ingredients:

  • 5 glasses of freshly squeezed raspberry juice.
  • 5 cups (or 1 kg) sugar.

How to do it?

In a dry saucepan, combine the raspberry juice and sugar. Heat it over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar has melted.

Raise heat to high and bring mixture to a high boil. This means that the liquid continues to boil even when you stir it. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the mixture reaches a temperature of 101 ° C, stirring frequently and collecting the foam from the top.

Pour raspberry jelly into clean jars for the winter, cover and cool to room temperature. Store preferably in the refrigerator.

Preparing dishes

You should sterilize the jars by washing them in soapy water and then placing them in boiling water in a large saucepan. Be sure to place a metal stand on the bottom before placing the cans, or you can also use a folded cloth towel. Otherwise, the glass will burst from touching the hot bottom of the pan.

Place the lids and rings in boiling water and turn off the heat. Do not boil them as this will degrade the quality of the sealing rubber.

Raspberry jelly for the winter: step-by-step instructions for canning

Pour the jam into sterile jars, leaving a free edge about 1 cm on top. Run a knife along the inside edges of the can to remove air bubbles. Be careful not to touch the bottom of the can when using metal utensils.

Clean the edges of the jar with a damp cloth or paper towel. Place the caps and tighten the ring around them, but not too tight.

Place the jars in boiling water in a large pot with a rack at the bottom. Make sure the jars are covered with at least 10 cm of water. Simmer for 10 minutes, then turn off heat and leave them in a saucepan for five minutes before transferring them to the cooling rack.

When the cans are cool, you must turn them upside down to ensure they are sealed. If done correctly, they can be stored in the pantry for up to 1 year.

Second option

The above recipe for raspberry jelly for the winter is far from the only one. You can also make jam in another way by adding lemon juice to it. What you need:

  • 1.5 kg of raspberries.
  • 1.5 cups of water.
  • Sugar.
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice.
  • Coarse salt.

How to do it?

Combine berries and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally vigorously with a wooden spatula, until the raspberries are very soft. This will take 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a fine sieve set over a heat-resistant bowl. Let the juice drain without pressing on the berries for 4 hours. Strain the resulting juice through a sieve lined with wet gauze. You should have 3 to 4 cups.

In a large, dry saucepan, bring the juice to a boil. Add 3/4 cup sugar for each glass of juice. Add lemon juice and salt (1/4 teaspoon). Re-bring to a boil and simmer, stirring frequently, for 8 to 12 minutes. To check if the jelly is ready, dip a large metal spoon in it, lift it horizontally above the pan, and let the mixture drain back. The product is ready when the mixture thickens slightly and drops slowly drip down the spoon. Be sure to remove all the foam from the top.

You can store the resulting jelly in the refrigerator in any container for up to 1 month or in a sterilized jar for up to 1 year.

Wild raspberry variant

You can also make jelly from raspberries for the winter by taking them. They have a specific taste and aroma that distinguishes them from horticultural crops. But keep in mind that her color is darker, and beautiful crystal red jelly will not come out of her. What you need:

  • 3 cups of ready-made berry juice (about one and a half kg of fresh berries).
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 100 grams of liquid fruit pectin.
  • 5 glasses of sugar.

How to cook it?

This is a five-minute raspberry jelly for the winter. First, mash the forest raspberries with a wooden spatula, dividing them into small batches. Put the resulting puree in a damp bag made of several layers of moistened gauze. Let the juice drain, without interfering with the process, for at least 2 hours (and it is better to leave it overnight). Try to avoid squeezing the bag, as otherwise the juice will not be of very good quality.

Pour the resulting juice into a saucepan, mix with sugar and boil. Make sure that the sugar is completely dissolved, and only then add the pectin and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for five minutes, then place in sterilized jars.

Spicy option

As strange as it may sound, pepper really enlivens the sweet taste and aroma of raspberries. To prepare such an unusual delicacy, you will need:

  • 1 cup raspberry juice (you can make it using any method described above).
  • 1/2 pod of sweet bell pepper, chopped.
  • 1/4 jalapenos, finely chopped.
  • 3 cups white sugar.
  • 3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 60 grams of liquid pectin.

How to cook it?

First of all, you must sterilize the jars and lids by immersing them in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Keep them hot until ready to use.

In a saucepan, combine raspberries, bell peppers, and jalapenos with sugar and vinegar. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat and then simmer over high for 1 minute. Remove the pan from heat and let stand for 5 minutes.

Add liquid pectin to the mixture and run it through any filter to remove chunks of pepper. Place the raspberry jelly for the winter in sterilized jars, close the lids and check for leaks. Store in a cool and dark place. After opening the can, place the food in the refrigerator.

In any of the above recipes, you can use both red and yellow raspberries, or a mixture of both. This does not affect the taste of the product, but the appearance of the jelly when using yellow berries will not be so beautiful.

One of my favorite raspberry recipes for the winter is jelly. No, of course, it's very tasty, but the bones that come across in it sometimes spoil the pleasure a little.

In its composition, you will not find any gelling additives - only the raspberries themselves and sugar, in equal proportions.

But thanks to a certain method of adding sugar to raspberry juice, raspberry jelly for the winter turns out to be quite thick and very beautiful. For a morning toast with a cup of aromatic coffee, this blank is just perfect! You can also use this jelly in baking, as a filling for pies, for example. If you are interested in me, I will gladly tell you in more detail how to make raspberry jelly for the winter.

Ingredients:

  • 1 kg of raspberries;
  • 1 kg of sugar;
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 100 ml of water.

How to make raspberry jelly for the winter:

We sort out the raspberries, remove the leaves, twigs and sepals. To make jelly, you can choose raspberries that are not the same size, crushed. We remove only the rotten and with a wormhole. Put a small portion (about 0.5 kg) of raspberries in a colander and put it in a container of cold water. We remove the colander from the water and leave the raspberries in it for 10 minutes so that the glass has excess moisture. If you have raspberries from your own garden, you have not treated them with anything, you do not need to rinse them.

To make jelly, you should take a stainless steel pan with a thick bottom. In an enamel pot, the jelly will stick to the bottom and burn. Pour water into a saucepan and pour raspberries.

We put on a small fire and bring to a boil under the lid. Boil the raspberries over low heat, covered for 5-10 minutes, until all the berries are boiled.

We discard the raspberries on a fine mesh colander and grind them. If there is no fine-mesh colander, you can grind the raspberries through a sieve or strain through cheesecloth. The main thing is that the seeds from the raspberries do not get into the jelly.

Pour raspberry juice into a saucepan and put on fire.

Bring the juice to a boil over high heat, add lemon juice and 1/5 of sugar (that is, 200 g). Mix and cook for 5 minutes. Then add sugar again, mix and cook. Cook until all the sugar is poured into the raspberries.

Continuing to cook raspberry jelly over low heat, add 1 tablespoon of jelly and pour onto a plate. We place the plate in the refrigerator. If the jelly hardens after 5 minutes, it is ready. So, it takes about 30 minutes to cook the jelly. If the jelly does not freeze, we continue to cook for another 5 minutes, check again. But usually after 30 minutes of boiling, the jelly freezes perfectly.

We remove the foam.

Thoroughly rinse jars for jelly with water and soda and sterilize. We also wash the lids with soda and boil for 4-5 minutes. Wipe the prepared jars and lids dry. We fill the jars with jelly, to the very top.

Cover the jars of jelly with gauze or a napkin so that no dust gets into it, and leave it for a day.
