Hubby went out and foraged for black raspberries that grow wild on our land, or what locals call blackcaps. We ended up with about 16 cups of berries from two pickings.
We made blackcap jam using no pectin, and it turned out delicious. This recipe we found here. We did water bath the jam for 5 minutes. We also had 8 cups of berries and added 4 cups of sugar and it really was all you needed.
The jam tasted so good on homemade bread.
What a great haul of blackberries! Enjoy the jam and the homemade bread
ReplyDeleteI am so impressed! I love that your hubby picked them wild. I like them in the little jars. They would make great gifts too.
ReplyDeleteWe have a small bush not really even a bush here. Can't wait to have a bigger amount down the line. I love that you made jam. Homemade rocks!
ReplyDeleteI think that is how mom used to make jam...and jelly.
