"My garden is literally bursting at the seams with the number of blackcurrant bushes. In summer, when the fruits ripen in full sun, their aromatic scent wafts throughout the garden, reminding us that it is harvest time. I pick them off, clean them thoroughly and start frying the jam. The smell of fried fruit fills the entire house. I put hot, summer-smelling fruit into jars. I prepare blackcurrant preserves every year in large quantities because their intense aroma, taste and health-promoting properties make them disappear very quickly. Blackcurrant jam has many culinary uses. They can be used to prepare both sweet and savoury dishes. Next to strawberries, this is the flavour that dominates in Poland."
Blackcurrant jam without added sugar
Blackcurrant jam was prepared using the traditional method - without added sugar. Therefore, the noticeable sweetness comes only from the fruit itself. The jam was slowly fried using a wooden stirrer and a large pot with a thick bottom to prevent it from burning. Long-term frying causes the water to evaporate and the sugars to caramelize. Caramelization is the process of darkening food, which contributes to the formation of caramel as a result of the action of high temperature on the natural sugars of the fruit. This process is very important in the preserves I prepare, because it helps bring out the true flavour of blackcurrant, which I then seal in a jar.
Using blackcurrant jam
It is a great addition to oatmeal, millet, tea, donuts, pancakes, bread, cookies, cakes, ice cream, waffles, potato pancakes and puddings. In other words, blackcurrant jam provides a wide range of possibilities in preparing meals. It all depends on your creativity and taste preferences.
What do blackcurrant jam taste like without added sugar?
After opening the jar, the jam is characterized by the specific aroma of thermally treated blackcurrant, which stimulates the taste buds to work harder. The jam has a thick consistency, a natural sour taste and a dark and intense colour like blackcurrant peel. This is a perfect choice for people who are not fans of sweet jams. Recommended for those who like to diversify the taste of hot teas and at the same time support their immunity. To sum up, in addition to the characteristic taste and smell, blackcurrant jam is a nod to maintaining good health and well-being.
