Ingredients for

500 g	Wild berries (e.g. blueberries, blackberries, wild strawberries, cornelian cherries)
250 g	Gelling sugar 2:1
0.5	Lemon
1	Preserving jar

Step 1/8
Collect fresh wild berries. Only take the best and ripest fruit with you. After all, we want maximum flavor and as many nutrients as possible!
Step 2/8
Carefully rinse the berries and drain them.
Step 3/8
Prepare the preserving jars (quick tip: you can also reuse your empty nut butter jars for this!) by rinsing them with boiling water. This sterilizes the jars and ensures their shelf life.
Step 4/8
Place the drained berries in a small saucepan or pan. Add the preserving sugar and the juice of half a lemon and mix everything well.
Step 5/8
Heat the mixture and simmer over a medium heat for about 3-5 minutes. Stir regularly so that nothing burns. The jam should thicken after a while.
Step 6/8
Pour the hot jam into the clean, sealable preserving jars.
Step 7/8
Close the jam jars tightly (careful with the heat!) and turn them upside down to cool so that they are airtight.
Step 8/8
Your homemade wild berry jam is now ready to be enjoyed in the wild or at home.
