Ingredients
1 kg fresh blueberries
475 ml water
1 kg McKinney's Sure-Set Jam Sugar

Prepare your jars by washing them well and sterilising and drying in a 150°C for 10 minutes.
Pour half the blueberries into a large heavy based stainless steel pot. Mash roughly with a potato masher and add the water.Add the rest of the blueberries and cook until the juice begins to run.
Add the sugar and stir over a low heat until all the sugar dissolves. You can feel the sugar on the bottom of the pan like sand.Increase the heat and bring to a rolling boil. Boil for exactly 4 minutes. Use a kitchen timer.Skim the jam using a ladle.
Allow the jam to sit for 15 minutes to settle the fruit and distribute evenly.
Pour the hot jam into warm sterilised jars and cover immediately.
