Currant Jam

Put one pound each of black, red and white currants into a preserving-pan and boil for a few minutes; then add two pounds and a quarter of sugar and boil all together, crushing the fruit with a wooden spoon; after boiling gently for half an hour, fill the jars with the jam, cover over and put away for use.
