A delicious blackberry jam for blackberry season! I love this recipe as one doesn't have to bother processing the jars in a hot water bath.
Ingredients
-
750g blackberries
-
900g sugar
-
2 tablespoons lemon juice
-
160ml water
-
1 (13g) sachet pectin
Preparation method
- In a large bowl, crush the blackberries. Stir in sugar and lemon juice. Let stand for 10 minutes.
- In a small saucepan, bring water and pectin to the boil. Boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add to fruit mixture; stir for 3 minutes. Pour into jars or freezer containers; cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Cover and let stand overnight or until set, but not longer than 24 hours. Refrigerate or freeze.
