Have you ever imagined savoring a jam so incredible it completely transforms your mornings? If so, you are in the right place! Today, we are sharing how to make a Brazilian Jabuticaba Jam that will enchant your palate and add a special touch to your meals.
Ingredients for Jabuticaba Jam:
- 6.6 lbs (3 kg) jabuticabas, washed and cleaned
- 10.5 cups (2.5 liters) water
- 7.5 cups (1.5 kg) granulated sugar
- Juice of 1.5 lemons
Instructions:
- In a large pot, mash the jabuticabas with a potato masher. Add the 2.5 liters of water and cook over high heat for 40 to 50 minutes until the liquid turns a deep purple.
- After cooking, strain the liquid using a fine-mesh sieve to separate the skins and seeds.
- In a clean pot, add the strained liquid and the sugar. Bring to a boil over high heat, then add the lemon juice.
- Cook without stirring until it reaches the jam stage: it should have a firm consistency and not run when you drag a finger through it on a cold plate.
