This Strawberry with Wild Rose Jam from Blake Hill’s “farm and forage” botanical collection combines the edible flowers that grow in the farm’s meadows with sweet, early summer strawberries. Blake Hill gets the balance of floral and fruit just right—local wild Jacobite roses add a hint of subtle aroma to the strawberry jam, without overpowering it with perfumey flavor. And the texture from pectin is brilliant, too—the jam flows off the spoon and isn’t over-gelled. In addition to their inventive flavors, all of Blake Hill’s preserves are perfectly balanced between sweet and tart and have a plush, silky texture. This jam is nut-free and gluten-free.
We test everything we sell. Here’s how we’d use this.
This jam would be delicious in cocktails, stirred into yogurt, dolloped on top of ice cream or added to dessert. Enjoy with toast or a warm scone. Add the jam to a cheeseboard.
