Ingredients

  • 1 pound rose hips
  • 1 TBSP lemon juice
  • a bit water
  • sugar to taste

Instructions

  • Place rosehips, lemon juice, and a bit of water in a medium pan. Bring to boil and then lower the heat to a soft boil for about 40-60 minutes or until the rosehips are soft.
  • Push rosehips through a strainer. You can also use a food mill.
  • Add sugar to taste.
  • Store in an 8 oz jar in the refrigerator. If you'd like to make it last longer, reheat jam to a boil, place in clean, sterilized jars and process how you would do with any other jam (water bath or pressure can).

Notes

  • you can use any sweetener you like and adjust the amount to your liking
  • to save time, you can boil the whole rosehips and push them through the strainer or fine mesh sieve with the skins and seeds
