BLUEBERRY JAM Makes about 2 cups jam
Blueberry jam has a loyal following in the jam-lover’s community. It is a starling mid-
night-blue color, and some of the berries remain intact when the jam is done, still evi-
dent in every spreading. Crème de cassis is a tasty fruit liqueur made from black cur-
rants, a fruit that contains one of the highest concentrations of vitamin C. It is ex-
tremely low proof and very sweet, a nice addition to this jam. I use one bottled in this
country by Bonny Doon Vineyards, but there are many types that come from the Bur-
gundy region of France, where it was invented. Crème de cassis is exceptional. Once
the bottle is opened, use it within six months for the best flavor.

2
cups sugar, or to taste
3 tablespoons crème de cassis liqueur
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Combine all the ingredients in the bread pan. Let stand for 15 minutes to dissolve the
sugar.
Program the machine for the Jam cycle and press Start. When the machine beeps at
the end of the cycle, carefully remove the pan with heavy oven mitts. You can
scrape the jam into heat-resistant jars right away, using a rubber spatula. For other
jars, let the jam sit in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring. Let stand until
cool. Store, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 months, or spoon into small
freezer bags and freeze.
