- Blueberry Jam
Ingredients
- 1kg (2.2 lbs) blueberries (I used 2kg [4.4 lbs])
- 200g (7 oz) sugar
- 60ml (2 fl oz) apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp fennel pollen (star anise also works great)
Method
1. Wash the berries well and then drain. Place the berries into a bowl with the sugar and mix well. Cover with a tea towel and leave at room temperature for 3-4 hours.
2. Next, place the berries and any liquid that has come off into a large pot. Over medium-high heat, bring to a simmer, then turn the temperature down to medium-low and cook until it thickens. This will take about 2 hours. Once you’re at this stage, you can add the fennel pollen (if using star anise or cinnamon, place them in at around the one-hour mark).
3. Sterilise your jam jars by boiling them in water for 5 to 10 minutes. Pour the hot jam into the jars and place a lid on. Let them cool to room temperature before you place them in the fridge.
4. The jam will last in your fridge for up to 6 months unopened and 1 month once opened.

As aways recipe in the description (tap, the three blue dots top right corner)
If you put a small piece of lemon rind in the pot while cooking the berries then take it out before putting in the jars it uplifts the flavour with a hint of lemon .
What is the shelf life and how do you store the unopen jars?
You made something without onions. I’m impressed.
I literally attempted blueberry jam 2 days ago and wish I had this. Definitely didn’t cook it as long as you did and now I have blueberry soup 😂
If you pour 1/4" of melted paraffin wax on top of the jam before you put on the hot lid, it will form an extra barrier seal and you can store it in your cupboard.
That's what I love about Aussie summertime Christmases. All the best fruit is coming into season: cherries, mangoes, watermelon passionfruit, citrus... etc
@@Karii.554 the entire southern hemisphere is coming into summer now. Though obviously that wont guarantee that everywhere will be yielding the same fruits at the same time. Still comes down to climate and conditions as it does everywhere. Probably wont be seeing any mangoes up in the Andes lol.
Damn… might be time to move
@@Karii.554Jesus 😂 do you live under a rock?
Feels wrong having a Christmas so warm though.
@@GiraffeFeatures I’ve heard that before a fair few times and I get it. But I guess it’s just one of those things that are relative to the persons experience. For someone like me that is the norm, and it has an entirely different theme and feel to it. Growing up in Sydney, my sort of childhood memories of xmas are all hot summer days in the xmas period, long days, tropical kind of storms in the afternoon/evening, cicadas and crickets at night, and xmas was always like a bbq type deal. Loads of cold drinks and meats done on the grille. Water balloon wars between all the children and setting up slip and slides, playing under sprinklers, and just that general type of thing. It never snows in Sydney (or almost any of Australia at all), but the sort of hallmark image of a white xmas and all that accompanies it seems totally foreign to me and it would be weird.
I remember going blueberry picking as a child and we made GALLONS of jam! (I'm 65). I miss those days.
That's so beautiful
thats so coolll mannn
Come visit me in a couple years (3 would be better) I'm growing a blueberry farm!
@@acornhomestead3575can I come?
That's beautifull how nice of you telling us it's so lovely
"Blueberry is so cheap"
I've never heard that before
Right?!? Cheap where I’m from would be anything less than $4/pint. Lol
Me neither... Living in Germany
Blueberries are so cheap AT THE MOMENT
Есть такое время когда она вообще бесплатная
2.79 a pint at Aldi. Seems pretty cheap to me
I appreciate you masticating in your kitchen and sharing the experience with us.

Andy - "This is called masticating."
My wife - "Wtf are you watching...."
Why is he masterbaiting the blueberries
@Ihavearacistgrandma2 "yes"
Gonna masterbait these Barries really quick
Actually masticating is another present tense way of saying chewing
@@dieselebrahim889yeah he confused masticating with macerating. The latter of which he’s going to the berries.
Be sure to listen for the lid POP before shelving. It'll tell you if a vacuum has set.
Only 100 g of sugar? Thats amazing! In Europe, recipes generally have the same amount of sugar for the same amount of fruits. This helps the stability, the jam may be kept at room temperature for 2 years, but increases blood sugar levels heavily when you eat it. The solution I see in this video its better for the diet and health. Ok, you need to keep it in the fridge, but its 5 times less sugar in the product. Lovely idea!
Ain’t nobody reading your comment neither Andy gonna respond
@@Savior41i actually read the comment because i was interested in what she said, cry about it and fill me a cup of tears while at it
@@popaandrei4422 your like the only one who actually cared to read it
@@Savior41wrong. I read it too. why are you being miserable in the comment section of a dude making jam, grow up
@@moonlineslover im not miserable im just saying no npc like you will read this comment i am grown up and i understand the world a lot so don’t talk
I love masticating everytime! It really helps especially when no ones around or you are alone.
I call that macerating - mixing fruit with sugar, lol. Masticating means chewing 😂 I love you Andy!
He said macerating
@@LisaMT1218watch it again
@@LisaMT1218He definitely said masticating
Lisa no your wrong lol it even says the wrong word on screen
We knew what he meant 😂😂😂
Quick tip: Let the jars cool down upside-down. This makes sure they 100% seal air tight, I've occasionaly had jars not seal properly when cooling down right side up.
I do that too
Great advice
Also if you want a smoother texture use a potato masher at the end of cooking to gently break the fruit up more, don't use a stick/emulsion blender or you'll break the seeds open giving the jam a weird texture
inversion canning is not safe or even effective at creating a complete seal.
my grandma always put like a teaspoon 80% rum on top of the jam, lit it and closed the jars, that way there will be a perfect seal because the flame will consume the oxygen that's on top.
I've done basil and rosemary. Both turned out excellent.
Looks delicious, especially the addition of herb sounds like a good idea. I have some recommendations: there is special jam making sugar out there, in German its called Gelierzucker, it is basically sugar with pectine. Using this, you dont need to cook for a two hours, a few minutes are enough. In this way, you dont cook away the more fresh/acidic component of the fruit/berries and it tastes fresher in the end. Kind regards
I always masticate when I watch Andy's videos

I thought the term was macerate, and that masticate was just to chew. I looked it up, and it also means reduce to a pulp by crushing or kneading The More You Know 🌈✨️. Lucky score with the cheap blueberries! Is the fennel pollen like an anise flavor?
Yep it sure is
@andy_cooks Oh, cool, thanks. I bet that compliments the sweet/tart well.
@@andy_cooksCan fennel seeds be used as a replacement?
@@andy_cooksthis looks so delicious!✨
@@MrGTO86looks like you can ...not as intense amd way cheaper
I just got confidence to make it.
Use mason jars + a squeeze of lemon to help preserve. Fill jars and simmer in hot water until you hear the mason jars pop. You then have some you dont have to keep in the fridge and will last almost indefinitely.
Masticate = To Chew
Macerate = Soften by soaking in liquid
The crystalline sugar draws out moisture from the blueberries, which they then soak in and soften.
HAHAHA
@@temgrot whats so funny?
I'm confused 😕 is he joking? Seems serious. No wink wink nudge.
@@justmaleigh6313I know about masticate being to chew so the second one is also probably likely to be accurate so it isn’t a joke
OMG I thought it was just me- nearly lost it LOL
May I ask how long can those last?
Masticating sounds a tad bit freaky 😂
i masticate a lot too Andy ...
I too enjoy mastication
Keep it tucked Subham
I’m sorry what 😭😭
mom said not to do it in kitchen
im actually gonna masticate right now!
I swear, I've never seen someone so enthusiastic about cooking. Love your energy!
hey, kami...😎
Watch emmy made in Japan
Is it masticating or macerating? I’ve always heard the later. I thought masticating was chewing? Genuinely unsure haha
make this at home, otherwise its public mastication
Where i live getting this would be a miracle and price is like eating a bowl of caviar 😅
Where’s that?
Fr blueberry is crazy expensive
@@bingusbintedin Australia they are literally so cheap right now for some reason. My partner has been dehydrating them and grinding them or leaving them whole - they don’t taste that amazing from the supermarket but once they’re dehydrated they become really sweet and delicious without adding any sugar - but usually they’re pretty expensive around $5 for a 125g punnet. Lately they’re basically $1.99 an punnet
Dunno about OP, but in France they’re always pretty expensive. Just checked a supermarket’s price and they’re about 20-35€/kg right now: 10€ for a half kilo and 4€ for 125g
@@insidethegardenwall22 dont wanna disclose my country, sorry 😣
In Aus, it's blueberry season. Wait another 3 months for NZ, and another 6 to 9 for the States (depending on whether you're southern or northern.
It's a good recipe - any jam recipe without added pectin is good stuff, I like the texture better
Wow, you've got information, thank you.
I use the reduced sugar recipes for my added pectin jams. It sets up slightly softer and allows the fruit to be the star.
I used to have a Granny Smith apple tree. If you peel the apple in one long corkscrew shape you can substitute it for commercial pectin. I made fruit syrups this way. My children and l like the fruit in the jams better tho.
Nothing in nz is fucking cheap anymore
@@shrimpymuscles8413 Nice,are Granny Smith's not just Australian?
Crap the sugar and go chia seeds instead
All sugar
Blueberry and raspberry jam, known as queens jam in sweden is amazing!
Men han använder inget smör ju!
Alltså, Andy använder inte ens riktiga blåbär.
@@jonaslundholm det är antagligen de amerikanska genmodifierade blåbären..
@MrArmynut~ ooh, that sounds divine. I have enjoyed them separately of course, but together- downright Regal. Thanks for sharing.
I want to ask do blueberry does not have seed in it , in my country it does we have to take it out then we eat it.
Nice with the fennel pollen, I usually add lemon zest and cardamom but will try yours
Blueberry is never cheap
My comrades worked very hard 🇲🇽
The ratio of 5:1 is actually really good even for smaller amounts, I’m surprised!! Thanks for the recipe Andy!!
Gotta do a cranberry jam for upcoming thanksgiving
At the moment cheap *at the moment the most expensive fruit in our country
Does time change depending on amount of blueberries?
Here in Greece we use much more sugar while making jams or spoon sweets with fruits, usually 1/1
I use more too, how much depends on the fruit but never less than 50% sugar to fruit. I don't eat a lot of jam and need the sugar to preserve it.
Thats way too much sugar for my taste. I prefer a bit of tartness in my jams.
@@LisaMT1218trust me that's not a lot of sugar for a jam
That's why he put it in the fridge. It's not enough sugar for long shelf life jam.
Γλυκα του κουταλιού οτι καλύτερο
Perfect match on fridge Cheese cake
Masticating is what you do with your teeth when you chew foods!
Doesn’t boiling your jam jars in water crack the glass?!
Hey Andy Chef, you can turn the jar upside down when you put lid on. Thats sealing cap with hot. People using this tecnique on pickle jars in Turkey
This is so wholesome!
“Yo can I have some toast and blueberry jam?”
“Sure, just give me aroooound 3 hours tops”
I hope it's good for PB&J Sandwiches
Congrats to Australia For winning the Cricket World Cup!
Fennel pollen?
Right!? Said that like it’s no big deal, I don’t even know if it exists
I made shezwan chutney this week and the thing about homemade is you get a different taste every time the last batch was nice and garlicy and this one is spicy and has the dominant taste of red chilli
Where are they cheap???
Masticating with my sister is fun ❤
😦..
Love the videos Andy. There’s a dish that’s common here on the Atlantic Coast of Canada that we make when blueberries are in season. If you’re looking to give it a go, just look up “blueberry grunt.” It’s a stovetop cobbler, and is (in my opinion at least) quite good.
My mom made that only one time when I was a kid. It’s such a vivid taste memory and its 45 years later! So good! I didn’t know what it was called. Now I can make it. Thank you! 😋
Blueberry jam is sooo good on pancakes
I love masticating my blueberries, i cant last a day without masticating, i like to masticate every chance i get
LOL! Blueberries are expensive here in Texas! I’ll save this for the summer ❤!!
Sorry but,
Blueberries are NEVER cheap unless you're a rich youtuber.
😋✌
just say you're broke lol
They're cheap in Australia🤦♂️
Theyre cheap in certain countries. less than 20 bucks per 10 kilos here if you know where to buy
@wigit2216 That's exactly what they're saying.
You can get about 2 pounds of blueberries for 10 bucks from where I am.
why does everyone insist on adding sugar to everything?
I thought he was gonna say Mastu-
I love it!!!!! Thank you chef!! Great video. I love blueberries and I love your channel! This video was meant for me from the universe. Thanks Chef happy cooking! And I Hope you’re all doing great out there!!
my only other suggestion is you put a date of packaging on the jar if you make more than one, and write on it when it needs eating by once opened.... found a black jar tucked into the back of my cupboard the other day and if it had have had a date on it id have not opened it by mistake..... black marmalade from over 10 years ago dosnt smell grreat btw.
@mrgreeneggs6191 Were you hoping to scrape off a bit of black and salvage the rest? Or perhaps, hoping you had grown a few of your own diamonds? I can imagine the odor lingered on the wind for a bit. Always best to avoid inhaling mold spores, if at all possible. Happy Thanksgiving!
They may be cheap for you they are 7.99 per 8 oz in the us or $30 or so a half flat
I love masticating my berries
Andy, can you do a blueberry pie! No one does them in Australia. It always has apple in it! I have to make my own but im sure you could knock a decent one up...
Great idea!
macerating surely 😊
I was just thinking the same 🤣. Maybe he chewed them a bit off camera
Mastacate means to crush up, macerate means to soften by soaking in liquid. Both a pretty apt in this situation.
You are correct he is incorrect
Look up the definition of masticating. He's correct.
read it again. you're both wrong.
@@guiturtlewood
$60 - 70 AUD a k/g is cheap?
How long it last ?
I live on the blueberry barrens in Maine, where they can grow wild and for miles the fields (posted ☹️) go for miles. Blueberry with orange peel is good.
Mmm that does sound like a nice combo.
Do blueberries and other berries produce their own pectin? I made lemon marmalade because we had a whole bunch of lemons that were gonna go bad and canned in a water bath actually in March 2021, as I just looked and apparently have one jar left in the cabinet. It was nice because you didn’t have to add any pectin. Just lots of lemon and sugar.
yum
God I wish they were cheap in Bali
It isnt cheap here either. $60 - 70 AUD a k/g
@@doozey1 damn so Andy was lying to us saying they were cheap right now
@@torchtorch7358 he is rich so i assume he heard originally the prices went up and when they dropped prices a tiny bit he jumped on the opportunity to say they were cheap to make content for $$$
100 g of sugar😮
I love blueberry jam on pancakes. With a bite of maple breakfast sausage. Yum
My grandparents have massive wild plum bushes on their land and we make jam out of it every year it's so good.
can’t we cool it before putting in the jar?
Worst fruit
Andy is a world-class chef, not an idiot. masticate
verb
mas·ti·cate ˈma-stə-ˌkāt
masticated; masticating
Synonyms of masticate
transitive verb
1
: to grind or crush (food) with or as if with the teeth : CHEW
The cows were masticating their food.
2
: to soften or reduce to pulp by crushing or kneading
PEOPLE!!! Geeze Louise, read your comments, 'he's got it wrong, masticate means chew.'. OMG. To chew is to crush. Masticate is crush.
Well, welcome to the internet. Where everyone wants to prove they're better than everyone else. Only to be proven wrong most of the time. Haha!
Its kinda sad how much I see people being confidently incorrect on things that only takes a few seconds to search up
"Blueberries are so cheap at the moment" Not something you'll ever hear in New Zealand
I prefer grape jelly, I grow my own grapes and everything. I make a big batch of it every year and it last for at least until the next summer or longer
I love masticating
You should turn the jars upsidedown after they're closed. Air will then remain on the bottom of the jar while it cools. As temperature decreases, air will reduce its volume, creating a suction. When cool, turn the jars once again and you'll notice you've created a small vaccume that'll allow you to store the jam for much longer
Does it have to be refrigerated if you do it that way?
@@penelopepalmNo, it does not need to be refrigerated - just store it in a cool dark place -, but you SHOULD refrigerate it once you have opened it! I use special jam-sugar that is 2:1 (1000g of fruit to 500g of sugar) and the sugar makes it last, but homemade jam does not contain additional preservatives like industrial jam, so in the fridge it goes after opening 😊 My mum used 1:1 jam-sugar (one part sugar to one part fruit) and I am still enjoying the jam she made 12 years ago 🤷🏻♀️ What is essential, like Andy said, is to sterilize the glasses and covers in boiling water beforehand ☝🏻👩🏻 Otherwise mold may grow on the inside of the cover 😬
@@muddi-hh excellent! Thank you!
Love blueberries 🫐, hate jam lol.
So 1 gram of sugar per 5 grams of berries
The only reason blueberry’s are so cheap is because the taste like ass.
Isn't it macerating?
Do blueberries contain enough pectin to set fully?
yep
Price of blueberries after this video 📈
I love masticating my berries into jam heheh shii
just want to say that jam you find in supermarkets pretty much taste the exact same so i recommend just buying it if you’re not making it for the sake of experience
And also cheaper than buying a a kilogram or few of blueberries at 60-70 dollars per k/g
Top tip - add jam to jars, put lids on and put jars in boiling water for 20 mins. You can see the vacuum seal pop down after the jars have cooled. Guaranteed to keep for at least a year. My neighbour is Spain showed me this. Works a treat.
That's 2kg you've got there, not 500g lol
A jar of blueberry jam is like 2$ so Idk about that statement.
i dislike blueberries
It's called WHAT now?
Is the 2 hour cooking time standard or was it because of the quantity of blueberries you used? I only have a small batch of bbs and idk if I can't stay at the stove for 2 hrs lol
Can we use honey instead of sugar?and how much time does it stays fresh?
I'll just buy it in the jar thanks though
I masticate at least once a day
Got 2 varieties of Skippy peanut butter here at home. Just need some jam...
Cheep blueberries???? Yeah right
Was hoping for blueberry brandy
Is the process not called 'maceration' rather than 'masticating?'
Who’s your supplier
Him: This is called masticating
Me: Mast....... what 💀
