Blackcurrant Jam Recipe | High Fruit Blackcurrant Jam Recipe.

Blackcurrant Jam from homegrown Blackcurrants is one of the highlights of Mid-Summer fruit growing. Working with the collected weight of ripe blackcurrants, this method makes a superb high fruit jam which is both quick simple, and delicious. It also stores well.

This video shows how we use 50:50 prepared fruit and granulated sugar to make a very quick jam which will keep for up to 12 months.

Blackcurrants are available to buy fresh or frozen, but they are so easy to grow and a single bush will fruit in its first year and within a few years provide a truly massive amount of currants.

Hi from Northern Norway. I love to make blackcurrant jam & tea-& juce & blackcurrant pie 😍

I just tried this with three cups of black currants I collected in my garden! It turnes out great, but I should have stopped at the second test. Its okay though, its my first time ever making jam! Better luck next summer 😂 its delicious though

I just picked a bunch of black currents from my garden. I'm going to use this recipe to make tarts.

Really good explanation. I made raspberry jam last night.

Next on list is blackcurrant - I guess as it’s so acidic no lemon juice is required in this ? Just 2 ingredients the fruit and sugar.

I found your nice easy recipe. I have just harvested a load of black currents, I'm wondering Is it possible to strain the seeds out. As my teeth are a bit brittle.

My mother used to make black currant jam and it has always been my favourite jam. I like the tangy flavour. I also like the pattern on the plate, that you used to test the set. Do you know if the plate is old and what the pattern in called?

I think I was a bit Jammy

Amazing just sugar & small butter only? why butter I am getting so curious?

[andrewwalkerscotland]

What temperature should oven be set to for sterilizing jars? And how to work out how many (volume) jars ?

[Flowreach]

How long in total does this take? Sounds like 5 minutes?

[dns_error]

And putting date and time on the jars, is it better to eat later or it's really like an expiry date?

Overboiled the fruits – vitamins took an exit. 🍓🔥

Excellent video, so simple! Is there a reason why you heat the blackberries before adding sugar? I noticed on your Tayberry jam video that you mixed in the sugar at the beginning.

Hi! Am I right in assuming you added no additional water. I ask because I just followed a recipe that for 2ib of fruit It told me to add a significant amour of water . Took 45 minutes to attain setting point using the wrinked surface test.
