Introducing my homemade banging blackberry jam, the perfect spread for buttered toast or a bagel! 🍇🍞This recipe requires 650g of blackberries, 650g of sugar, and one sachet of pectin. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can even add two shots of gin at the end! Here’s how to make it:1️⃣ Start by washing your blackberries thoroughly.2️⃣ Weigh out 650g of blackberries and add 4 tablespoons of water. Place them on the stove and simmer gently, taking care not to break up the fruit. This step helps soften the berry skins.3️⃣ While the berries are simmering, weigh out an equal amount of sugar and warm it up. You can also warm up the auger by passing it through the oven or microwave.4️⃣ Add the warmed sugar and pectin to the blackberries, and increase the heat for five minutes. This will help set the jam.5️⃣ Carefully transfer the jam into sterilized jars, either using a jam funnel or by spooning it in. Allow the jam to cool for half an hour, then seal the jars with lids.6️⃣ Place the jars in the fridge for 24 hours to allow the jam to set.The next day, you’ll have a jar of banging blackberry jam ready to enjoy! 😋🍇🍞 #homemadejam #blackberrydelight #foodie
