The next day, transfer to a large jam pan or heavy-bottomed stewpot.
Bring to the boil over high heat and cook for 15 to 20 minutes.
For the last 5 minutes, turn down the heat to control the cooking.
If you use a thermometer, cook until the temperature reaches 104/105°C (219/221°F).
Stir frequently to prevent the jam from sticking to the bottom and burning.
Skim towards the end of cooking. Using a skimmer, remove any foam that rises to the surface. By removing these impurities, the jam will be clear and translucent.
Check the cooking by pouring a little jam onto a frozen spoon or plate. Wait a few seconds, then trace a line with your finger, and the line should not close, indicating that the jam has set.
The jam will thicken further as it cools.
Pour the hot jam into the sterilized jars. Use a funnel to pour the jam without dirtying the jars.
Fill the jars up to 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) from the top. Replace the lids and screw on tightly.
Turn the jars upside down on a towel. After 2 h, tighten the lids. Allow to cool completely before turning.
Store jam jars in the cupboard, away from light. The jam can be stored for more than a year. Once opened, store in the fridge for up to 1 month.
