Ingredients

• 2 cups of fresh blackberries
• 1 cup of granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Directions

1. The saucepan contains fresh blackberries with sugar as its main ingredients. The blackberries need gentle stirring to coat them before the mixture requires a 10-minute wait for juice extraction.
2. Medium heat should be applied to the saucepan to let the mixture reach its simmer point. The wooden spoon helps to break down the blackberries while occasional stirring occurs to mash them.
3. The addition of lemon juice follows the initial bubble formation while the heat remains at medium-low. The mixture requires constant stirring during 20-25 minutes of cooking until it reaches your desired thickness.
4. To determine if the jam has reached the correct consistency you should place a small amount on a cold plate then push it with your finger. The jam is ready when it maintains its shape. Additional cooking time of a few minutes should be applied if the jam does not set properly.
5. After removing the heat source add the vanilla extract to the mixture. The jam needs several minutes to cool before you can transfer it to sterilized jars.
6. The jars need to cool down to room temperature before you store them An error occurred while processing your request. Please try again.
