Sweet Basil and Blackberry Jam

• One 16-ounce bag frozen blackberries, thawed, juice reserved
• 4 cups fresh basil leaves (3 1/2 ounces)
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup fresh orange juice (from 1 large orange)
• 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (about 1 medium lemon)

1. Serving suggestions: Serve on toasted bread, alongside cheeses, or on lamb chops.
2. Mix with yogurt and granola, or layer in desserts or parfaits.
3. Place the blackberries and their juice in a medium saucepan and lightly mash with a fork.
4. In a food processor, combine the basil, sugar, orange juice and lemon juice.
5. Blend until smooth.
6. Stir the mixture into the blackberries and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
7. Simmer until the mixture is thick, stirring occasionally, 25 to 30 minutes.
8. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the jam to cool for 1 hour (the jam will continue to thicken as it cools).
9. Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
