A zingy twist on raspberry jam from the University of New Mexico. Try this on your morning toast, as a glaze on chicken or pork or over a brick of cream cheese and served with crackers.

I recently purchased Habaneros and raspberries, came across this recipe and thought why not!
I used 24 ounces of fresh raspberries packed into a to 4 cups. 4 cups sugar not the 6 using low sugar pectin, 1 cup minced habaneros that was 21 chili`s. And added a sliver of butter to cut the foam. This is super hot stuff just the way DH likes it! Thanks Molly!
