Blackberry Habanero Jam Recipe

Ingredients

• 4 cups fresh blackberries — ripe and juicy for maximum flavor
• 1–2 habanero peppers — finely chopped, adjusting heat level to our preference
• 3 cups granulated sugar — to sweeten and help with preservation
• 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice — adds brightness and acts as a natural preservative
• 1 packet fruit pectin (about 1.75 oz) — essential for jelling the jam to the perfect consistency
• 1/2 teaspoon salt — enhances all the flavors and balances the sweetness
