Cooking with fresh fruits have their own charm. When i had black grapes at home i was simply tempted to make Grape Jam. It turned out very good on my first try. This the first time i am trying a recipe with black grapes. I was so excited to see what the jam would look like while its spread on the bread. It was a dark vibrant color. Just loved it. Healthy too. This jam keeps good in when stored in refrigerator up to 2 months. Here goes the recipe...

Step by Step Photos on how to make Black Grape Jam :
- Wash the Black Grapes well. Start heating a Frying Pan. Add the Black Grapes into it. Add water upto the level of black grapes. Start cooking. The color of the grapes infuses into water.
- Once the skin of grapes starts cracking switch off the flame. Mash the grapes. I have used a hand blender to mash them. Strain the mixture and try to extract as much as pulp you can. Now i like to have few chunks of jam so i have not strained it.
- Start heating this mixture again. Add sugar and lime juice. Keep cooking until it reaches the jam consistency in low flame. Keep stirring so that it does not get burnt.
- Black Grape jam is now ready to serve.
Tips:
- Sterlize the jars in which the jam is to be preserved. Use clean and dry spoons and Jars for better shelf life.
Serving Suggestion:
Served with Bread and Butter. As a Side Dish in a Meal.
