Sort the berries, wash them thoroughly, and drain them. Then place them in a large saucepan and puree. Split the vanilla pods, scrape out the seeds, and add them to the pan along with one vanilla pod. Add a piece of cinnamon stick to taste. Now thoroughly stir in the preserving sugar and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. After about 3-4 minutes, test for settling. If the jam hasn’t set yet, stir in the juice of half a lemon and try again a few minutes later. If necessary, squeeze the whole lemon and stir in the juice. Then pour into sterile jars, seal them immediately, and turn them upside down. Let cool completely under a towel.
