OLD BACHELOR'S JAM
Any berry will work in old bachelor's jam. The layered fruit spread is ripe for experimentation. Here it's made with blackberries, raspberries, and kirsch and spread on the cornmeal crust of a blackberry tart. Some say the liquor-infused jam was named for its capacity to warm single gentlemen on winter nights.

Number Of Ingredients 5
Steps:
- Bring blackberries, 1 3/4 cups sugar, and the juice of 1 lemon to a simmer in a large pot over medium heat. Cook until sugar dissolves and berries are soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Press parchment directly on surface of jam, and refrigerate overnight. Repeat with raspberries and remaining 1 3/4 cups sugar and juiced lemon in another large pot.
- Remove parchment; bring each pot to a boil. Cook over medium-high heat until berries are slightly broken down and jam is the consistency of very loose jelly, about 12 minutes for the blackberries and about 17 minutes for the raspberries. Plate-test jam to make sure it is set.
- Divide blackberry jam between four 1/2-pint-size sterilized glass jars, filling each halfway; top each with 1/2 ounce kirsch. Divide raspberry jam between jars; top each with 1/2 ounce kirsch, leaving 1/4-inch headspace at tops. Can in water bath for 10 minutes. Unopened jam can be stored at room temperature for up to 1 year.

Steps:
- Place the berries and sugar in a large bowl and gently stir. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Wash a 3-litre jar (or use smaller jars with screw-top lids) and dry well, as any moisture will cause bacteria to form. Gently stir the eau de vie into the berry mixture, then spoon into jars, making sure the berries are covered with liquid. (The amount of juice you have will depend on how much liquid has come out of the fruit. If there is not enough liquid to cover all the fruit, top up with alcohol.) Seal with the lid and refrigerate overnight. It will keep for up to 3 weeks.
