Ingredients

• 300 grams strawberries
• 300 grams raspberries
• 200 grams blueberries
• 500 grams granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 50 milliliters water

Directions

Step 1

Wash all the berries thoroughly under cold running water and drain them well in a colander.

Step 2

Hull the strawberries and cut larger ones into quarters, leaving smaller ones whole or halved for a chunky texture.

Step 3

In a large pot, combine the strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries release their juices (about 5 minutes).

Step 4

Gently mash the softened fruits with a potato masher for a smoother texture, or leave them chunky if you prefer a rustic jam.

Step 5

Stir in the granulated sugar and lemon juice until they are fully dissolved.

Step 6

Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Stir frequently to prevent sticking or burning.

Step 7

Cook the jam for about 15-20 minutes, or until it reaches the desired consistency. To test doneness, place a small spoonful of jam on a chilled plate. If it wrinkles when pushed with your finger, it is ready.

Step 8

Skim off any foam that forms on the surface for a clearer jam.

Step 9

Remove the pot from heat and allow the jam to cool for about 5 minutes.

Step 10

Carefully ladle the jam into sterilized jars while still warm, leaving a small gap at the top, and seal tightly.

Step 11

Let the jars cool completely at room temperature before storing them in the refrigerator. The jam can be stored for up to 3 weeks.
