Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Cook berries and water in a covered nonreactive pot 3 minutes. Uncover and mash fruit a little with a fork.

  2. Step 2

    Sprinkle gelatin on the orange-juice concentrate and let the gelatin soften. Stir into the hot fruit mixture and cook, stirring, over low heat until gelatin dissolves completely.

  3. Step 3

    Cool and spoon into jars. Refrigerate or freeze. Refrigerated perserves will last a couple of weeks; frozen, they last months.

Tip
  • To add a bit of zest, if you have no objections to a bit of sugar, stir in 2 teaspoons of minced candied ginger after the mixture is cooked.
