Redcurrant-raspberry jam – fruity, aromatic & easy to make
This jam brings summer to your jar: a vibrant blend of raspberries, red and black currants, refined with cinnamon and star anise. The result? Fruity, slightly spicy, and perfect for breakfast, cakes, or as a gift.

Ingredients for 4 glasses of 225 milliliters each
500 g raspberries, prepared and weighed
250 g red currants, prepared and weighed
250 g black currants, prepared and weighed
1 sachet of gelling powder 2:1
500 g cane sugar
1 cinnamon stick
6 star anise
Shelf life: approx. 6 to 8 months
Here’s how to prepare it:
Sort the raspberries, rinse them lightly, and shake them dry. Sort the currants, wash them, and remove them from the vines.
Combine all the fruit with the gelling powder, bring to a boil, add the sugar, cinnamon stick, and star anise, stir, and simmer for about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and continue stirring for about 5 minutes.
Test for settling. Remove the cinnamon stick and star anise and immediately pour the hot fruit puree into the prepared jars. Seal the jars and place them upside down on a damp cloth. Turn them over occasionally to ensure the fruit is evenly distributed throughout the jars.
