The jam is laid out in sterilized jars, not reaching the top by 1.5 cm. Sugar is poured on top of 1 cm, which subsequently forms a protective crust. I cover the jars with lids or special paper.

Berries before any preparation, in order to get rid of bugs and spiders, are kept in slightly salted water. Then washed.

It belongs to juicy berries, so you can’t just dry it. For storage, hard, unripe berries are harvested. It is better to dry in an electric dryer or a preheated oven.
In order to completely get rid of moisture in the oven, they should be kept for 2 to 4 hours at a temperature of 50 0 C. At the last stage, the temperature is raised to 60 0 C for 15 minutes. Store dried berries it is necessary in a dry ventilated container, for example, a cotton bag, glass jar in a cool dry place.
I will add on my own great recipe. When the entire crop has already been harvested and cold weather is expected from day to day, cut upper part sprigs of raspberries, I still have them right with green unripe berries. Here they can be collected and arranged in bouquets in the room, or hung in the kitchen by the stem. The berries, even completely green, dry well, become red in color. Then you transfer them to clean cotton bags and store them. Raspberries dried in this way are not so tasty, but they help remarkably in the treatment of diseases, they can be used as tea leaves and berries, and leaves go well with honey.
Pureed raspberries
In order for the pureed raspberries to be well stored, it is necessary to add sugar. If the berry is stored in the refrigerator, the sugar should be equal in weight to the raspberries. When stored in the cellar, they take twice as much sugar.
Combine clean sorted raspberries with sugar. Can be rubbed right away. It is good to put in the refrigerator for 3 hours to give the berry time to let the juice out. The crushed berries are placed in clean sterilized jars, sprinkled with sugar on top. Store in refrigerator or cellar.
In own juice
For this dish, the berries are well sorted, washed and put in jars, pouring successively with sugar. For a half liter jar, about 6 tablespoons are needed. When covered, the jars are kept for about 6 hours to extract juice from the berries.
The sterilization process lasts 15 minutes, close, then turn over and cool according to the traditional scheme.
How to freeze
There are several ways to store berries in a frozen state:
- The easiest way. Arrange ripe whole berries on a plate and send for preliminary freezing. After a few hours, get the berry, transfer to plastic bags and store in the freezer.
- Pre-mashed raspberries mixed with sugar at the rate of half a glass of sweetness per kilogram of berries are well stored in the freezer in containers.
- All raspberries are crushed in a blender or food processor, mixed with sugar. Sugars take half as much by weight as berries.
- The aroma and properties of the product are well preserved if half mashed and whole berries are mixed for storage. In this case, 150 g of sugar is added per kilogram.
Raspberry and currant compote
First recipe
For the preparation of compote, fresh, possibly overripe, berries are selected. After the berries are well washed, they are placed in jars, observing the proportion: raspberries and currants should occupy a third of the volume.
The syrup is prepared separately. For two cans of 0.8 liters, it is necessary to prepare about a liter of syrup, 1 cup of sugar is needed for this volume.
A jar with compote is sterilized for 10 minutes in a loosely closed state. Then it closes, turns over, and stays in a warm place until the end of cooling.
Second recipe
I don’t really like sterilization, lately I’ve been making compotes only according to the second recipe. The exception is berries with seeds, but this is another article.
For one three liter jar compote, you need to take a half-liter jar of raspberries, the same amount of sugar.
Cook the syrup from 2.5 liters of water and sugar, just boil and let it boil for 5 minutes.
Pour raspberries into a jar and pour boiling syrup, immediately twist iron lid and put under a fur coat until cool.
Other berries, blueberries, currants, strawberries can be added to raspberries. Get a new taste.

Children love juice simply because it is very tasty, sweet and odorous. In this regard, raspberry juice is the perfect medicine, which they happily gobble up on both cheeks.
