Cooking Instructions
- 1
Pluck the elderberries from the stems and pick out the bad ones and unripe berries. Wash and drain.
- 2
Prepare the jam jars: fill jars and lids with boiling water until rim. Or cook the jars in a pot to sterilize.
- 3
In another pot mix elderberries and canning sugar and let cook for 4 minutes. Then add lemon juice.
- 4
Now you could drain the jam to get a jelly (more common here in Germany) or you leave the skin of the berries in the jam. Fill the jam in the jar, close it and turn upside down for 10 minutes. This will help to create a vacuum. Turn back again. Let the jam cool and put in the fridge. Unopened it will last for approx. a year.

Mulberry Jam Mulberry Jam
I came up with this recipe after 9 years of experimentation. I wonder if the mulberry tree in the courtyard of my alma mater is still bearing fruit.Since snipping off the stems does not remove the part that is inside the berry, I've discovered this method. Since the berries are separated from the stem, there's no need for a blender or food processor. Recipe by Iguanano egao

Blackberry Jam Blackberry Jam
There are blackberries that grow in my backyard every year and I wanted to eat them somehow, so I turned them into a jar of jam.Don't blend too much or crush the seeds. The hard, little seeds can leave a taste in your mouth, so strain the berries to remove them as much as possible.I rarely see blackberries being sold in supermarkets here where I live, but you can easily grow your own outside on the balcony. They have sharp thorns, but they will grow into such sweet berries. Recipe by cafe-cafe. -
