Notes:

Don’t be tempted to increase these recipes, as they may overflow.

If trying you own recipe in the bread maker for the first time, be sure to keep a close eye on your jam so as it doesn’t overflow.

To sterilise jars, place clean, glass jars, without any chips or cracks, in a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Place the lid on and bring to boil. Boil for 20 minutes. Remove the jars and stand upright on a heat-proof board. Do not dry, as their own heat will soon dry them.

Alternatively, place clean, glass jars, without any chips or cracks, into the oven at 100°C for 20-25 minutes. Remove from the oven using oven mitts and fill immediately with hot jam.

Jam setta is a powder containing pectin that assists Jam to set and “gel”. It can be bought from supermarkets in 50g packets.
