I’d never made jam before, but last year, when I found myself with a number of quarts of delicious berries from the farmer’s market, I started searching for a recipe that wouldn’t be too difficult. Fortunately, I ran across this recipe by Ina Garten, AKA The Barefoot Contessa. It was easy and turned out to be very tasty. I also love it because besides being easy, you don’t have to have an enormous quantity of fruit. Three pints of berries is all you need.
