Recipe of Homemade Mixed Berry Jam

Ingredients:

• 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
• 1 cup fresh blueberries
• 1 cup fresh raspberries
• 1 cup fresh blackberries
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp lemon zest

Instructions:

• Wash all the berries thoroughly in advance. Set aside for future use.

• Hull and chop the strawberries into small pieces. Leave the blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries whole.

• In your SENSARTE PASCA Ceramic Nonstick Sauce Pan, combine all the berries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest.

• Place the sauce pan over medium heat. Stir the mixture frequently to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.

• Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Continue to cook for about 20-30 minutes, or until the berries break down and the mixture thickens to your desired consistency.

• To check for doneness, place a small spoonful of jam on a chilled plate. If it gels and wrinkles when pushed with your finger, it’s ready.

• Skim off any foam that forms on the surface during cooking. Stir occasionally to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.

• Once the jam has reached your desired consistency, remove it from heat. Carefully ladle the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving about ¼ inch of headspace at the top.

• Let the jars cool at room temperature. Store the jam in a cool, dark place. Once opened, keep it refrigerated.

• Spread your homemade mixed berry jam on toast, scones, or use it as a topping for yogurt, ice cream, or pancakes. Enjoy the fresh, fruity flavor any time of the year!
