We just finished making 36 250ml jars of raspberry jam after watching your video. We don't eat exactly that much jam, but we plan on gifting most of it to friends and family for Christmas. We use decorative mason jars and tie a ribbon around them with a little tag showing the ingredients: Raspberries and Sugar. Oh and of course the Merry Christmas too. We find people are much more appreciative of gift baskets containing a variety of natural simple preserves than a gift card they'll probably never even use. This raspberry jam will be a nice addition. Thank you!
Nice! That is so lovely and thank you for letting me know and for making our recipe. I agree totally gifting homemade food preserves is a lot better then gift cards. Enjoy to the fullest... :) Bonita
My nan sent me out a few bottles of her fresh raspberry jam last week, pop went in the woods and got the berries and nan did up a small batch. There's nothing in the world that tastes so good as something made with love like that!
Hi Mosey: That sounds so lovely, I do agree its nothing else like it for sure. Thank you so much for your message and for visiting my channel, I can remember when my Dad and Mom would send me homemade jams and cakes. :) Bonita
I’m drooling - raspberries, sooo good made into a sauce to put over cheesecake or ANYTHING else. My favourite jam on homemade breads, your recipe! How wonderful to have a sister that has plenty of raspberries. Are there lots of farmlands - veggies - blueberries etc. close to your place? Seems like you live in paradise! What a treat to always have access to FRESH seafood! Don’t know how you get the time to do all that you do - and, ALWAYS with a clean & tidy kitchen - I’ll bet your house is spotless. (I’ve really got to get a lot more busy - lol).
Haha you are so sweet and thank you for the lovely message and for stopping by, we work 24/7 and even in our sleep we are working. My sisters garden is facing the Ocean and on the side of her house is all raspberry plants and goose berries, then on the back of her house in the woods is blueberries, she is so lucky. I live in the woods but only 5 minutes from the Ocean, I'm sure there is lots of berries in the back but we have to many trees to get through. I like a clean kitchen when I'm working because you feel good, but its just me a Raymond so its not much mess to clean up. Thank you so much for stopping by and enjoy our recipes to the fullest. :) Bonita
You are very welcome, and thank you so much for stopping by and enjoy our raspberry jam recipe to the fullest. We post a NEW recipe every Sunday and todays recipe is RHUBARB FLUFFY CUTS www.bonitaskitchen.com/recipe/rhubarb-fluffy-cuts/ check out this link...... :) Bonita
Great Job Bonita, I hear of people complaining about their jam looking to washed out or not really red but I think how you made it happen was to add enough sugar and let it boil long enough to condense
Hi Shannon, Thank you so much for your message and for stopping by....Making jams and jellies is all about TLC and time. This is a lovely jam and letting it slowly condense stirring occasionally will remove the liquid and make a delicious jam. I know we all don't want to much sugar but sugar is the key to a lovely jam. I hope you get to make some and enjoy. :) Bonita
Hi Linda, Thank you so much for your message and I'm so glad to here your family is from NL, I have a link here to my asst. tarts for you to view. th-cam.com/video/tH4moMz08Yg/w-d-xo.html they are so delicious. Enjoy Bonita

Hi Bev MacDonald: Thank you for your message and for visiting my channel, my pots are Kitchen Aid and I purchased them from Canadian Tire, sometimes they have good sales on so watch for your flyers. Thanks Bonita
Great video, thank you l will be trying this one for sure. I noticed that you put regular lids on then boiled them? Do those ones have a shelf life or do they go straight in the fridge?
Those got a shelf life and fridge of course, the tops got a bubble on them and when you boil them that bubble goes down and it seals. But most of the time I use them for straight to the fridge for short shelf life. Enjoy our recipe and the regular mason jars work best if you are not sure on them sealing. :) Bonita
Yes I am, I have one in the making and looking at a spring release if everything goes well. This one will have many tasty recipes. I will post it here letting all our viewers know as soon as we get our cover design. :) Thank you :) Bonita
Hi, I made the raspberry jam yesterday following your instructions but my jam as become so stiff like candy. what did i do wrong. Please is there any way it can be corrected or I have to throw it away
Hi Rose Osei, Thank you for your message and for stopping by, sound like your boiled it to long and it turned to jell. I'm not sure if you did the jam check with a cold plate, jam can go three ways, under cooked and not jell, over cook and jell to much, and cook prefect and be delicious. I'm so sorry yours was over cooked. Unfortunately there is no fixing this one but maybe you can use it in a recipe , like tea buns or squares. Please try it again, Bonita
Yes you can and it would be lovely, I have a recipe here for plumboys also known as black berries, this is a cream cheese mini tarts.....so tasty. www.bonitaskitchen.com/recipe/newfoundland-plumboy-berries-cream-cheese-mini-pies/ But yes the raspberry jam recipe would work great for blackberries. :) Enjoy Bonita
Hi Erica: Thank you for your message and for stopping by, if you have the mason jar seal properly the bottles of jam will be good until all jam is eaten. Date the bottles for your own record or if you give one for a gift. When sealed keep a cool storage away for heat or sun, and when opened keep in the fridge until eaten. I hope this helps and enjoy to the fullest. :) Bonita
Hi Soonah: Thank you for your message and for stopping by, if your jars are sealed you can keep them at room temperature or colder room storage until they are all gone.

Hi Karla, thank you for your message and for stopping by, the sealing of jars is for safety reason and long time storage. If you are only making a jar or two its ok to make it and put it in your fridge until you have eaten it all. I hope this answers your question and stay safe.
