Equipment

  • Blender
  • Large saucepan
  • Fine Strainer
  • Small Jar with Lid

Ingredients

  • 3¼ cups red grapes
  • 5 tbsp sugar
  • 1½ tbsp fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  • Remove all stems from the grapes and wash them very well.
  • Place the grapes in a blender. Pulse a few times until you get a coarse purée.
  • Add the blended grapes, sugar, and fresh lemon juice to a heavy-bottomed large saucepan. Cook on medium-high heat, uncovered, until the juices start to thicken, stirring often, which should take about 15-20 minutes.
  • Test to see if the jam is ready by scooping a ladle of the jam and pouring it back slowly into the pot. You want it to be syrupy but not a loose, runny liquid. If it’s too thin, continue cooking for a few more minutes until you achieve the thicker consistency–it will also thicken slightly when cooled.
  • Pour the jam through a strainer.
  • Ladle the jam into the jar(s) and refrigerate once it has cooled.
  • Keeps in the refrigerator for up to 5-6 weeks.
