Recipe: Homemade Blackcurrant Jam

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups blackcurrants
  • 3 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup water

Instructions:

  1. Rinse the blackcurrants and remove any stems. Place them in a large saucepan along with the granulated sugar, lemon juice, and water.
  2. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves completely.
  3. Once the sugar has dissolved, increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
  4. As the blackcurrants heat up, they will release their juices and begin to thicken. Use a spoon or a potato masher to gently crush some of the berries and release their flavors.
  5. Continue boiling the mixture for about 15-20 minutes until it reaches the desired consistency. To test if the jam is ready, place a small amount on a chilled plate and tilt it. If the jam wrinkles and holds its shape, it is done.
  6. Remove the saucepan from heat and let the blackcurrant jam cool for a few minutes.
  7. Transfer the jam to sterilized jars and seal tightly. Allow the jars to cool completely before storing them in a cool, dark place. The jam can be refrigerated for several weeks.

Indulge in the fruity goodness of homemade blackcurrant jam, spreading its vibrant flavor on your favorite treats.
