- Cover the bowl with a microwave safe dinner plate, and microwave for 3 minutes. Give it a stir. If your jam is still very runny, pop it back into the microwave for 30 second intervals. Note: Be careful, it will get quite hot so use caution, and oven mitts.
- Spoon the jam into a clean jar and let cool Store in the refrigerator, the jam will firm up as it cools.
- Use or freeze the jam within one week.
Notes
- You can also use the hot jam, right out of the microwave, as a dessert sauce over cake or ice cream.
