La Trinquelinette Jams Black Currant
Open the jar and on the top you see a smooth ice rink of jam.
Dip your first spoon in and you know that you have a sea of jelly.
The taste is all black currant. It is 55% blackcurrants, 45% unrefined brown cane sugar and a little pectin.
This French blackcurrant jam is not sweet in the typical sweet jammy way. Instead what you get is the blackcurrants that are no longer puckery, close-your-eyes, sour.
And you can, with your eyes open, taste all the blackcurrant flavor. A bit of blueberry, a bit of berry, rich color and sour bitter that bites at the back of your throat.
Blackcurrants are considered a powerhouse of goodness.
They are considered good for your immune system, blood flow, gut health, kidney health and your eyes.
Full of vitamins, most notably is C, with 4 times the amount as the orange. The other vitamins contained in this little berry are A, B-1, B-5 , B-6, and E.
Perfect for spreading to your heart's desire on toast or a wonderful Effie's Homemade Oatcake. Add to your morning yogurt and oats. And most perfect for your game fowl.
