Black Bird Cherry Jam

Description

Winter preserves made at home. 1. I usually start making bird cherry jam at home with careful berry selection. 2. After that, wash them thoroughly and blanch them (no more than 2 minutes!). 3. Drain the berries in a colander and meanwhile make a sugar syrup. 4. When it has simmered for 10 minutes, pour it over the berries in a large container. 5. That’s it—now set over low heat and cook until done (you can bring to a boil, remove from the heat, and repeat this 3 times). 6. After that, pour the jam into jars and seal them. It’s best if you cover the jam overnight with a warm blanket (my grandmother used to do this too). Serve at the table or store in the pantry.
