Shop:

  1. Blackcurrant
  2. Seedless raspberry
  3. Strawberry

Homemade:

  1. Damson
  2. Gooseberry
  3. Strawberry

DC contend that strawberry tops both lists Hmm

Clearly I am NBU. Strawberry jam is good jam but definitely not best.

You make a good list! I haven't had any sort of plum jam in years.

Definitely blackcurrant for me but dd1 would say strawberry and dd2 would say raspberry

Apricot is my favourite, followed by strawberry.

NickMyLipple · 06/02/2018 19:49

Plum and then seeded raspberry!

Morello cherry
Damson
Blackcurrant
Gooseberry

Frouby · 06/02/2018 19:49

Apricot.

Or bramble jam.

Or lemon curd. I know it isn't a jam but I have it on toast or in a tart so it's an honorary jam.

mistermagpie · 06/02/2018 19:49

I hate blackcurrant anything (sweets, cordial etc) and actual blackcurrants, but blackcurrant jam is the best!!

Lime marmalade is my favourite thing though.

UpstartCrow · 06/02/2018 19:50

Blackberry for home made

Lime marmalade and morello cherry for shop bought.

isseywithcats · 06/02/2018 19:50

Raspberry tops any list

Therefore yabu

bananamonkey · 06/02/2018 19:51

Love apricot and lemon curd too

redcollargirl · 06/02/2018 19:52

It depends what it’s going on.

Apricot or blackcurrent for toast.
Raspberry on bread or in rice pudding
Strawberry for scones

SwearyG · 06/02/2018 19:52

Sour cherry jam is the best.

Slartybartfast · 06/02/2018 19:52

Blackcurrant
Apricot
Raspberry

Argeles · 06/02/2018 19:53

Rose petal is by far the best jam. You can find recipes online, or in a lot of Persian cookbooks, such as ‘Pomegranates and Roses,’ by Ariana Bundy.

I usually buy rose petal jam rather than make it. I buy it from Iranian or Turkish grocery stores in London.

Aside from rose, the only other jam I really like is strawberry.

mickeysminnie · 06/02/2018 19:53

Gooseberry!!

endofthelinefinally · 06/02/2018 19:53

Fig
Apricot and almond
Gooseberry

LambMadras · 06/02/2018 19:53

Bullace jam is hands down the best thing ever
