Blackberry jam
Description
Blackberries, like any other berry, make excellent jam—beautiful, vibrant, and very tasty. Most importantly, you know it's made from natural ingredients. This jam has a rich, distinct blackberry flavor. You can prepare it using either fresh or frozen berries, as I did. The recipe is very simple and quick, not counting the setting time, although even that doesn't take long and depends on the size of the molds.
