Glen Ample
Big, firm, summer-fruiting berries on spine-free canes — which means picking doesn't require protective clothing. One of the best commercial varieties, grown because the berries are large, the yields are heavy, and nobody gets hurt harvesting them.

Equal weight fruit and sugar, juice of a lemon, boil to setting point. That's it. The jam that fills the kitchen with the smell of summer and makes toast worth getting up for in January.
