A traditional jam made by cooking grapes in their own sweetness until thick and similar to grape molasses. Its deep color and rich aroma make it a classic on winter breakfast tables.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the grapes

15 min

Remove the grapes from their stems and wash them. Put them in a wide pot with the sugar.

2

Cook with the sugar

40 min

Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the grapes break down and the syrup thickens.

3

Thicken the jam

5 min

Add the lemon juice and boil for 5 more minutes. To check the consistency, drop a little jam onto a plate; if it leaves a trail, it is ready.

4

Fill the jars

5 min

Ladle the boiling jam into sterilized jars and seal them. Turn the jars upside down to cool, then store in a cool, dark place.

Reminder

Because grapes are naturally sweet, you can reduce the amount of added sugar to taste. Use a wide pot to prevent the jam from boiling over. Contains no flour, milk, or egg; it is plant-based and gluten-free. Ladle the boiling jam into sterilized jars and store in a cool place.
