Blackberry Raspberry Confiture Recipes

BLACKBERRY RASPBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with foil. Place the baking sheet on the center rack of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Allow the baking sheet to heat for 15 minutes.
• To a large bowl, add the blackberries, raspberries, 1 cup of the sugar, 2 tablespoons of the cinnamon, the arrowroot, flour and salt, and toss gently to combine. In a separate small bowl mix the remaining 1 teaspoon sugar and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and set aside.
• Butter a 9-inch ceramic or glass pie dish. Unroll one pie crust and place into the pie dish. Pour the berry mixture into the crust. Unroll the second pie crust and place on top of the filling. Pinch the edges of the top and bottom crusts together to seal. Fold the double edge under and crimp, making a decorative edge. Sprinkle the reserved sugar and cinnamon mixture over the top. Using a paring knife, cut a few slits in the top of the pie crust.
• Place the pie into the oven on the prepared baking sheet and bake until the crust is deep golden and the filling is bubbling through the slits, 1 hour and 15 minutes.
• Cool the pie to room temperature before serving.

OLD-FASHIONED RASPBERRY JAM

Steps:

• 1. Place sugar in an ovenproof shallow pan and warm in a 250°F (120°C) oven for 15 minutes. (Warm sugar dissolves better.)
• 2. Place berries in a large stainless steel or enamel saucepan. Bring to a full boil over high heat, mashing berries with a potato masher as they heat. Boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• 3. Add warm sugar, return to a boil, and boil until mixture will form a gel (see tips, below), about 5 minutes.
• 4. Ladle into sterilized jars and process as directed for Shorter Time Processing Procedure .
• Tip: To make a small boiling-water canner, tie several screw bands together with string or use a small round cake rack in the bottom of a large covered Dutch oven. Be sure the pan is high enough for 2 inches (5 cm) of water to cover the jars when they are sitting on the rack.

BLACKBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Combine blackberries, sugar, lemon juice, and salt in a saucepan. Toss to coat and let sit for 5 minutes.
• Bring berry mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until sauce has reduced and thickened slightly, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool slightly and serve warm, or refrigerate for later use. Mixture will thicken further as it cools.
