Recipe is translated from the 2001 Autumn booklet from the German thermomix club.
500g red grapes, quartered and with seeds removed
250g jam sugar (2:1)
500g white wine
250g extra jam sugar (2:1)
1. Put grapes and first batch of jam sugar in a mixing bowl, and mix. Leave it to soak overnight.
2. Next day, put the white wine and the other batch of jam sugar in the tmx bowl *: and mix 20 sec / 5
3. Add last night's grape mixture, and cook for c 13 min / 100oC/ 1
4. Check settting point is reached (tip bowl and see if clings to sides and sort of wrinkles, rather than just sloshing - technical term ;) ) and fill prepared jars.
5. Stand the jars on the lid for c 5-10 mins, then turn and repeat process (5-10 mins). Turn 3 times. This way the grape pieces are evenly distributed throughout the jar.
Tip: This jam is optically very interesting, and makes an excellent gift.

Thanks Caroline - does the jam sugar have pectin in it?

Thanks Caroline - does the jam sugar have pectin in it?
Yes, it does. I think in Oz you use normal sugar and add a packet of Jamsetta?
-
yes or we can buy jam sugar too :) http://www.csrsugar.com.au/jamtips.aspx

Thanks brazen - didn't know that !! Yeah - hard to believe :o :o

I had a look at the CSR packet today in the supermarket in response to your question TMXR and yes it does.
-
I wish I had the time to look at everything in the food stores to see what is on offer - sometimes I get a real surprise when I am wandering around looking for something and find all these little treasures.

Do you mean you haven't got time to spend browsing the aisles of the supermarket Thermomixer - well I never :o :o :o Put it on your list of 'things to do when I retire list'. I'd also like to spend 1/2 day wandering around food shops just looking, looking but life is all rush, rush these days for us all.

LOL - no Jd - I
waste spend too much time on the computer or in the kitchen with Bimby :-)) :-))

Thanks, I made this today and love the flavour, but thought I'd add that I needed an extra 25 minutes at Varoma temperature (with the basket on top) to get this to setting point.

I'll bet it tastes nice. Thanks for the information re the longer cooking time.
