First Place Blackberry Freezer Jam! image

This unique and delicious recipe is one that I found in an old recipe box from an auction! I love to honor the people who lovingly saved their favorite recipes during their lifetime and they sadly get discarded and end up in a public auction. I tweaked it to my personal style and the rest is 1st place history!

Number Of Ingredients 6

31/4 mashed blackberries
1/4 cup(s) freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 1.75 ounce box sure gel pectin ( the yellow box)
1 cup(s) light corn syrup
4 cup(s) white sugar
1 teaspoon(s) freshly grated nutmeg

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan off the stove, mix blackberries and lemon juice. Sift in the pectin while stirring.
  • Medium simmer for 30 minutes and stir every few minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in corn syrup. Place pan back on heat and gradually stir in sugar. Cook on medium heat 2 -5 minutes, making sure sugar is fully dissolved. Don"t cook any longer or it will be runny.
  • Place jam into clean jars or other containers and place in fridge or freezer. ( I noticed the jam improved in flavor after the flavors had time to mature for a day or two)
  • Jam is good three weeks in fridge and six months in freezer.
