Washed Sparkleberries (It will never cease to amuse me that they're really called that, it's the absolute best thing ever!) in a pot with two Macoun apples, and a hint of vanilla bean, pour some sugar on it baby, and cook down to mush. Definitely strain, as those teeny stems are a pain to pluck individually and Sparkleberries do have a pretty large seed for the size of berry. The leftover mash, I'm going to use and infuse a cider I'll make out of the rest of the apples I picked!
It made a FANTASTIC spread cooked down with two Macoun apples, and just a hint of vanilla bean. #kitchenwitch #sparkleberry #fairyfood #fallmagic #maine #apples #jam #fromscratch
