Raspberry jam is a sweet and tangy spread made from ripe raspberries, sugar, and sometimes pectin for thickening. It is a popular fruit preserve that captures the natural flavors of fresh raspberries. The process of making raspberry jam involves cooking down the raspberries with sugar until they break down and release their juices, creating a thick and luscious texture. Raspberry jam is loved for its vibrant red color and its rich, fruity taste. It can be enjoyed on toast, scones, pancakes, or used as a filling for pastries, cakes, and cookies.
