Blueberry lavender jam with honey and lemon

Blueberry jam is one of the most popular and quickly eaten treats in our family. Last year, I discovered that blueberries pair very well with lavender. I know that most people don't associate lavender with food. It is one of those herbs that are widely used in aromatherapy and cosmetics.

However, when used with the right foods and in the right amount, it adds a slight floral yet nutty flavor to dishes. I also used honey as a sweetener in this recipe. Honey pairs well with lavender as well as blueberries.

Ingredients:

Blueberries - 1 kg.
Honey - 650 gr.
Lavender - 1 tbsp. l. fresh kidneys
Lemon - 1/2 zest and juice 1 pc.

Cooking:

1. Grind the lavender buds in a mortar and pestle. Set aside. Place one ceramic or glass plate in the freezer. Later we will need it to test the readiness of the jam.

2. Sterilize jars and lids in any way convenient for you: in the oven, steam, microwave or boiling water.

3. Add blueberries, honey, lemon juice, and zest to a large, wide saucepan or enamel bowl. I find that using a wide container for small batches will speed up the cooking time. During cooking, the jam will form a foam. It needs to be cleaned up. It does not affect the integrity of the dessert in any way, but makes it less attractive.

4. As your jam begins to thicken, remove a plate from the freezer and place a spoonful of jam on it. Return it to the freezer for two to three minutes. Remove the plate from the freezer and gently nudge the jam with your fingertip. If it is slightly wrinkled, then the delicacy is ready. If not, continue cooking for a few more minutes and repeat the test.

While you are testing for doneness, remove the jam from the stove so that it does not burn.

5. Once the jam is ready, add crushed lavender to it and mix well. Then place it in sterilized jars and tightly close or roll up the lids. This dessert goes well with toast, muffins, buns or ice cream. Make a few extra jars and give to your loved ones or friends.

What a great selection of recipes we have today. As you can see, making blueberry dessert is not at all difficult. Choose for yourself one or more of the most delicious, in your opinion, recipes and be sure to prepare a healthy treat. For me, they are all good and each has its own zest.

How to make five-minute blueberry jam

Even dry berries picked in the forest with your own hands must be sorted out, freed from leaves and twigs that fell into the basket during collection. Fill with water, leave for a few minutes. All impurities will either settle to the bottom or float.

Carefully collect the blueberries, place in a colander and pour over a gentle stream of cold water. After 5-10 minutes, the water will drain, you can cook jam.

Pour blueberries into a saucepan or basin, add sugar. If you cook a large portion of jam at once, pour it in layers, so the juice will appear faster and the sugar will melt.

To speed up the dissolution of sugar, gently shake the pan. Sugar will mix with berries and juice, it will begin to melt. But in any case, the workpiece will need to be left for 5-6 hours or until the morning.

This is what blueberries look like before cooking five minutes: there is a lot of syrup in the pan, there is not a trace of sugar left. Just in case, gently mix with a spoon - perhaps a certain amount of crystals have not dissolved.

Put on low heat, heat gradually and bring to a boil. As a rule, when cooking five-minute blueberry jam, there is almost no foam, but even a small amount of it must be collected with a spoon, trying not to pry the berries. Start boiling for five minutes. Stir the blueberries in the syrup twice, skim off the foam. Boil exactly five minutes, no longer.

Prepare the jars before the start of cooking the jam, then it will not be up to them. Scald with boiling water, rinse with soda, heat over steam, or prepare in another way convenient for you. Also wash the lids in a soda solution and boil. Fill clean containers with boiling jam, tighten the lids.

So that five-minute blueberry jam can be stored in the pantry, and not in the cellar, wrap the jars with a woolen blanket or scarf, hide in a blanket or pillows and let them cool slowly. After a day, when they become room temperature, rearrange them in the pantry.

As you can see, everything is quite simple and quickly done. The most time-consuming work can be done by the whole family - a kilo of blueberries is moved into several hands in just ten minutes. The reward for diligence will be delicious five-minute blueberry jam, a healthy and completely natural product made from selected berries. Good luck preparing for the winter!
