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!
