The wild blackberry season is coming to an end. We’ve put enough blackberries into the freezer so now it’s time to put some in jars. Normally blackberries are canned in a sugar syrup but when you’re eating KETO, sugar is not an option. This recipes shows that you CAN preserve blackberries without sugar.

My parents planted 6 tame blackberry plants several years ago, spaced about 2-3 feet apart. They trained them onto a trellis. Each year they pruned the old canes. I believe it was year 2 that they harvested approximately 26 gallons. No briars and chiggers and snakes. I could not tell any taste difference between their tame vs wild blackberries. Supplied the family and sold a bunch each year. Just FYI.

@corrineadams7303 Күн бұрын

I use my grape juice to can fruits. Blackberries I juice some of the fruits and can that for syrup later. Some of the berry juice is also used in my canning for my blackberries. Makes really yummy juice even after consuming the fruit being canned. Have done apples, pears, prunes, and cherries. I put the fruit in then pour the grape juice right from the steam juicer to fill my jars.

Next time you pick the berries try a small variation to get the best berries. Cup your hand under the berries and gently tap the berry the ripe ones will fall off; you will end up with the sweetest berries. My kids used to eat the frozen berries without wanting sugar on them because of all the natural sugar.

I rarely can any more because I have to buy my produce at the grocery store & it’s usually too expensive but I still have all my supplies “just in case.” One note, don’t know if it’s true or not, but my mother always “conditioned” the lids by putting them in a small pot of warm water, just at a low simmer, for several minutes before using them. She said that softened the rubber seal just a little which gives a better seal. I only know she rarely had a jar that didn’t seal properly and I watched (& helped) her can countless thousands of jars of fruit, jams & jellies over the years.
