Kya’s Blackberry Jam

Kya's Blackberry Jam
Recipe inspired by Where the Crawdads Sing
Servings: 12
Calories: 27kcal
Equipment
- food processor
Ingredients
- 2 cups blackberries washed
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice fresh
- pinch salt
Instructions
- Place the berries in a food processor and blend until smooth.
- For seedless jam: place a fine mesh strainer over a medium sauce pan. Pour the blended berries into the strainer and push them around with a spatula. The sauce will run through the strainer leaving the seeds behind. Do this until as much sauce is strained as possible.
- Add sugar, lemon juice and salt to the sauce pan with the berry sauce. Stir frequently on low heat until the jam thickens, about 18-22 minutes.
- Cool and enjoy!
