    Hello Folks
    Does anybody Know if it's safe to use Frozen Blackcurrants to make JAM.

    Hello, and welcome to the Vine.

    I can't see why not, I often freeze my fruit and make jam with it later. Have a go and let us know how you get on

      hi. no problem to use frozen blackcurrants just defrost in your pan on a gentle heat and use as normal. Ive frozen all my loganberry's to make jam later on. freeze sloe's to make sloe jelly as this saves you pricking them as they burst when frozen

        If your blackcurrants are 'freeflow' frozen, try shaking them about in a metal collander while still frozen, to 'top and tail'. Less 'bits' in the finished jam.
        I make sloe gin (a sweet version). I never prick the sloes, just put them in big jamjars, add sugar, leave on a sunny windowsill for 3-7 days before adding the gin.

          In a word, yes, perfectly safe - oh, sorry, that's three...

          Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

          Which one are you and is it how you want to be?
