This week the Cornish Times has a Recipe of the Week with a difference, as it is a ‘best ever’ jam recipe from a star of the River Cottage series of TV programmes.

Preserves legend Pam Corbin says that of all the recipes for jams in her new book, entitled Pam The Ham: The Book Of Preserves, this one for raspberry jam is her favourite and the one she makes most often.

She adds: ‘It’s super-easy, quick, highly fruity (about 80 per cent fruit) and as reliable as the sun rising.’

So read the secrets of this fruity recipe in this week’s Cornish Times, in shops from today (Friday).
