Grape and Blueberry Jam
The grapes and blueberries from last weeks fruit box were getting past their best and needed preserving. What better way?
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Wash the fruit and add to a pan with the water. Cook over a low/medium heat for 10 mins until the fruit starts to soften.
* Step 2
Once softened, mash the fruit using a potato masher. Some recipes call for the skins and seeds to be removed from the fruit base at this stage. I decided against this as I quite like my jam textured and it’s also much easier!
* Step 3
Add the sugar and lemon juice and stir well. Heat to a boil, then reduce and leave to cook for about 10 mins stirring regularly.
* Step 4
When it’s ready it will stick to the back of a spoon.
* Step 5
Transfer the jam to a container and leave to cool before putting it in the fridge. It will last a week or so. Enjoy!
