Four berries, one balance
Minnelea's Mixed Berries Extra Jam is born from a selected mix of blueberries, raspberries, blackberries and currants. Four berries with different characters working together: the blueberry brings depth, the raspberry adds freshness, the blackberry gives body, the currant a tart note that keeps everything in balance.
A jam designed for those who don't want a single flavour direction, but a layered profile: sweet, fruity, slightly tart. Recognisable, but with more details.
Essential recipe, 130% concentration
For each jar we use 130 g of berries to obtain 100 g of finished jam. The fruit loses water during cooking and what remains in the jar is the concentrated part: vivid aroma, visible pulp, soft structure.
Only mixed berries at 75% and cane sugar at 25%. No pectin, no thickeners, no preservatives, no colourings. The consistency comes from time and from the natural hold of the berries.
Vacuum cooking at low temperature
Like our other sweet jams, mixed berries are processed by vacuum cooking at low temperature. A slow method, chosen to preserve the intense colour of the berries, the fresh aroma and the tart note typical of wild fruits.
The result is a dark jam, rich in pieces of fruit, intense on the palate but never cloying.
How to use it
Perfect on warm bread for breakfast, on rusks or pancakes. In pastry it works well for tarts, cheesecake and tiramisù where a fruity contrast is needed. Among sweet pairings it shines with Greek yogurt and fresh cheeses, where the tart note creates contrast without covering.
A jam for those looking for complexity, not monotony.
