Grace123s Blueberry Jam Easy Recipes

EASY SMALL-BATCH BLUEBERRY JAM

Steps:

• Mix blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon in a saucepan; cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat until thickened, about 30 minutes.

GOOSEBERRY-BLUEBERRY JAM

Steps:

• Pick through and rinse gooseberries and blueberries, removing stems and leaves and discarding any bad berries.
• Add the lemon juice and water to a medium saucepan.
• Over medium heat, slowly add the sugar to the lemon and water, whisking as you go, until the sugar-water mixture is smooth. If necessary, you can add a bit more water.
• Heat on medium until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is clear. Just don't keep heating it, because you'll end up with caramel - in this case, not good! And yes, I've done it.
• Add the gooseberries, and cook (keeping the heat at medium) for about 3 minutes.
• Stir in the blueberries (and the nutmeg, if using).
• Bring the mixture to a boil, and allow to boil for about 5 - 10 minutes until thickened.Tip: How do you tell it's the right consistency? Do the spoon text. Dip a cold metal spoon into the mixture, and pull it out sideways. If the mixture drips off in one stream, it's not ready. When the mixture drips off in two drips, it's close. Then the two drips begin to form a sheet, it's ready! Keep in mind it'll keep thickening up after it cools.
• Allow to cool a bit, then pour into jars. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

BLUEBERRY JAM

Steps:

• Put a plate in the freezer for you to test your jam is set later. Sterilise two 500ml jam jars so they are ready to use.
• Put the blueberries, sugar, vanilla and lemon in a large heavy-based saucepan over a medium heat. Crush the blueberries a little with a potato masher. Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 30 mins. Skim off any skum that has formed on the top with a spoon and discard.
• Test the jam is set by spooning a mound on to your cooled plate. Put in to the fridge for 3 mins. If the jam forms a skin and ripples when you push it with your finger, it's ready. If not, return to the heat for 5 more mins then repeat the test. Do this until you reach setting point.
• Leave the jam to sit for 10 mins off the heat. Ladle into your warm, sterilised jars and seal the lids on top. Leave to cool completely. Will keep for six months unopened in a cool, dry place, or two weeks once opened in the fridge.

BLUEBERRY JAM

Steps:

• Crush the blueberries in a large kettle.
• Place over high heat and add pectin and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Stir in the sugar, bring back to a boil, and let boil for 1 minute.
• Remove kettle from heat. Skim off and discard any foam. Carefully ladle jam into hot, sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch head space. Wipe excess jam from inside and outside rims, then seal.
