Elevate breakfast with a delightful berry jam.
Ingredients:
  • 2 lemons
  • 750g strawberries, washed, dried, hulled
  • 860g white sugar
  • 200g raspberries, washed, dried
  • 200g blackberries, washed, dried
  • 200g blueberries, washed, dried
Instructions:
  • After juicing the lemons, save the seeds and wrap them in a small piece of muslin, securing it with kitchen string.
  • In a large saucepan over medium-low heat, combine strawberries, lemon juice, lemon seeds, and sugar. Stir occasionally for 10-15 minutes until the sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Continue boiling and stirring occasionally for 20 minutes until the jam is reduced by one-quarter.
  • Strain out the lemon seeds and mix in the raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries. Cook for 5 more minutes, stirring occasionally until the jam thickens. To check if the jam has set, chill a saucer in the freezer, spoon some hot jam onto it, then freeze for 1 minute. Run your finger through the jam to see if it wrinkles and jells. If not, cook for 5 more minutes and repeat the test.
  • Evenly distribute the hot jam among four sterilized preserving jars and seal right away. Flip the jars upside down for 2 minutes, then return them upright to cool completely. Label and date the jars. Enjoy with scones, brioche, or toasted fruit bread, if desired.
