the fruit to the strainer, and then put the

 and press 

OK,  then  select  45  minutes  extraction 

time.  During  extraction,  regularly  press 

the  fruit  down  with  the  ladle  and  stir

pulp  at  the  end  of  the  extraction  time. 

If  necessary,  sieve  the  juice  to  remove 

any fine pulp or odd seeds. Measure the 

extract  and  use  750  g  sugar  for  each 

1 litre extract. For example, for 600 ml 

extract you would use 450 g sugar.

juice to the bowl. Select programme 

P3

 

and  press  OK,  then  select  the  cooking 

time indicated above and press OK.

(see  page  5  for  details).  Remove  any 

scum; pot quickly before it sets and label 

(see page 5 for details).

 

Variations:

adding the sugar.

  Instead  of  blackberries  use  brambles 

collected from hedgerows. Wash very 

well before use.

1. Preparing the fruit

obtain 600 g. Place them in the strainer 

together with the blackberries.

2. Extracting the juice

Remove the paddle from the bowl, add 

400 ml cold water and put the strainer 

with  the  fruit  on  top.  Put  the  lid  on.  

Select  programme 

P1

  and  press  OK, 

then select 20 minutes extraction time.  

During  extraction,  occasionally  stir  the 

fruit  with  the  ladle.  At  the  end  of  the 

extraction  time,  crush  the  pulp  using  a 

potato masher or the back of a wooden 

spoon until the berries have broken up.

3. For Tradition programme 

P3

Measure  the  extracted  juice  into  a  jug; 

set aside. Add the fruit pulp to the bowl, 

plus 200 ml of the extracted juice, lemon 

juice and sugar. Select 

P3

 and press OK, 

then  select  the  cooking  time  indicated 

above and press OK.

4. Test for a set 

When cooking is finished, test for a set 

(see page 5 for details). Skim any scum 

or  add  butter  to  disperse  scum.  Pot 

immediately while still hot and label (see 

page 5 for details).

 

Note: Apple and Blackberry jam tends to 

spit  during  cooking  so  always  stop  the 

timer before removing the lid.

substituting  600  g  raspberries  for 

blackberries.
