Sugared Blackberries

"From the pages of Gourmet, Jan 2008 magazine, page 81. Credits to the late Edna Lewis for teaching a friend to mash fruit with sugar for a sort of jam that some say keeps for a year if refrigerated. (tested for a month and still good)"

directions

  • Mash berries with sugar and salt in a bowl with a potato masher until berries are liquified and sugar dissolved. (Do NOT put berries in the blender! The seeds impart a bitter taste!).
  • Let stand, covered and chilled, 3 days to allow the flavours to blend, stirring once a day.

  1. Brilliant with some oatmeal!
     
  2. I was just going to post this...but here it is! This is very refreshing, the flavor is delicious! We like this on sourdough toast or buttermilk biscuits. I have also tried it with other berries, such as raspberries or strawberries. This really does keep for a very long time in the fridge. Thanks for posting, Swedish Chef!
