Equipment

Non stick pan
silicon spatula

Ingredients
 
 

  • 3.2 cups Black grapes (750 gm) (seedless grapes)
  • ½ cup sugar (granulated sugar)
  • 2 teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Wash black grapes and pat dry on a kitchen towel.
  • Add the black grapes in an electric mixer and grind to puree consistency.
  • Add black grape puree in a non-stick pan or heavy bottomed pan on a medium heat . To it add sugar and stir until it dissolve completely.
  • Stir continuously and let the puree cook well. Stir regularly for 15 to 20 minutes to avoid jam burn to the bottom of the pan. Add freshly squeezed lemon juice to the mixture .It acts as a natural preservative for the black grape jam.

How to check the consistency of Homemade Black Grape Jam

  • The jam has thickened and ready to check the consistency. To check, add a drop or two of jam mixture in a small plate of water. If the jam mixture stays as it is without dissolving, you achieved the perfect consistency. Remove from the stovetop and let it cool completely.
  • Take a sterilized Jar, fill black grape jam up to the rim of the Glass Jar and turn it upside down and leave it for a few hours before storing it in a cool and dry place. Turning the filled Jam bottle upside down creates a vacuum and helps to preserve to increase shelf life. Black Grape jam will be good for months if it is unopened. Once opened, store it in the fridge. Use a clean, dry spoon for use.

Notes

Wash and pat dry black grapes well.
You can blend or mash black grapes with a potato masher.
Do not reduce the quantity of sugar and lemon juice.
Always use dry spoon to consume jam.
