Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb blackberries
  • 1 1/4 cups sugar

Method
 

  1. In a non-reactive pan, mash the blackberries with a potato masher.
  2. Add the sugar and heat the contents over medium heat, stirring gently, until the sugar is dissolved.
  3. Raise the heat to medium-high and boil the mixture for about 10 minutes. You want to do it long enough that a drop mounds in a chilled dish.
  4. Pour the jam into a jar and cap the jar tightly. Store in refrigerator. This jam should keep for several weeks.
