Ingredients
- 500 g rhubarb
- 500 g caster sugar
- few drops of lemon juice
Instructions
- Wash the rhubarb thoroughly and remove any leaves, as they are toxic.
- Chop the rhubarb into small pieces, around 1-2 cm in length.
- Place the chopped rhubarb and sugar into a large saucepan. Leave the mixture to sit overnight at room temperature to allow the sugar to dissolve.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, until it reaches a rolling boil.
- Reduce the heat and let the jam gently simmer for around 30-35 minutes, or until it has thickened and reached the desired consistency.
- Add a few drops of lemon juice, stir well, and cook the jam for another 5 minutes.
- You can test the consistency by placing a small amount of the jam onto a cold plate and allowing it to cool. If the jam sets and wrinkles when you push it with your finger, it is ready.
- Once the jam is ready, remove it from the heat and let it cool for 15 minutes.
- Spoon the jam into clean, sterilized jars and seal tightly. The jam will keep in the fridge for a few months.

Notes
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients to ensure that your jam has the best possible flavor.
- Cut the rhubarb into small, uniform pieces. This will help it to cook evenly and ensure that you get a smooth consistency.
- Allow the sugar to dissolve. Leaving the rhubarb and sugar to sit overnight before cooking will help the rhubarb to release all of its juices.
- Be patient when cooking the jam. It can take up to 40 minutes for the jam to reach the desired consistency, so don't rush it.
