      Title: MICROWAVE BERRY JAM
 Categories: Jelly/jam, Fruits, Microwave, Kooknet
      Yield: 2 Half pints
 
      2 pt Berries; Raspberries,
           -Blackberries or
           -Boysenberries
      3 c  Sugar
 
  Place berries in an 8 cup measuring bowl or larger microwave-safe
  bowl and crush lightly. Stir in the sugar and let stand 5 minutes.
  Cover the container with plastic wrap and turn back a corner of the
  plastic so steam can escape. Microwave on HIGH (100%) 4-5 minutes, or
  until the mixture has come to a boil. Continue to microwave on MEDIUM
  (50%) for 8 minutes.
  
  (Caution, this can boil over easily. If your microwave oven has no
  glass dish on the bottom, place the bowl on a plate to catch any
  juices.) Remove plastic wrap and cook on MEDIUM (50%) for 8 minutes
  more.
  
  To test the jam, dip a spoon in the mixture. Run your finger through
  the mixture on the back of the spoon. If it leaves a distinct trail
  without closing in on itself, the jam is done. To double check, spoon
  a bit on a small saucer and place it in the freezer for 1 minute. It
  should have a jam-like consistency. If the jam needs more cooking,
  microwave on MEDIUM (50%) for a few more minutes. Store in the
  refrigerator.
