What each ingredient does
- Fruit
- Supplies the main flavor and body of the jam.
- Sugar
- Sweetens the jam and helps it thicken as it cooks.
The step that matters
Returning rising syrup to the kettle. Syrup separating to the top means the fruit and liquid have not stayed evenly mixed. Returning it to the kettle and boiling again lets the jam recombine and thicken more evenly.
