topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

  • 450 g frozen blackberries, thawed, do not pour out the juice
  • 4 cups fresh basil leaves (100 g)
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (1 large orange)
  • 3 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice (1 medium lemon)

Preparation:

  1. Place the blackberries and their juice in a medium saucepan and mash lightly with a fork.
  2. In a food processor, combine basil, sugar, orange and lemon juice. Blend until smooth.
  3. Add the mixture to the blackberries and bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer until the jam thickens, stirring occasionally, for 25-30 minutes.
  4. Remove the pan from the heat and let the jam cool for 1 hour (it will continue to thicken as it cools). Transfer to a jar, seal tightly, and refrigerate. Store for up to 3 days.
