Quattrociocchi Blackberries Extra Jam (Confettura Extra di More) is
a high-end, organic Italian preserve handcrafted by the historic Frantoio Quattrociocchi estate in the Lazio region. This gourmet jam is produced in small batches using seasonal blackberries grown directly on the family estate.
Flavor and Texture Profile
-
Taste: It delivers a bold, fruity flavor with a rich and tangy goodness that captures the pure essence of ripe blackberries.
-
Vibrant Quality: Made with plump, succulent berries picked at the peak of ripeness, the jam balances natural sweetness with the fruit's characteristic tartness.
-
Authentic Production: The fruit is processed at very low temperatures (below 50 degrees Celsius) to keep the delicate aroma and intense flavor completely intact.
Premium Ingredients and Standards
-
Extra Fruit Content: As an "Extra" jam, it contains a significantly high fruit-to-sugar ratio. Similar preserves in the Quattrociocchi line use between 100g to 130g of fresh fruit for every 100g of finished jam.
-
Simple Recipe: The jam is made using only three core ingredients: seasonal blackberries, organic cane sugar, and a splash of lemon.
-
Clean Label: It contains no artificial flavorings, colors, or preservatives. It is also gluten-free, vegan, and lactose-free.
Culinary Pairings
-
Sweet Applications: Ideal for spreading on warm toast, biscuits, or croissants, and makes an excellent filling for tarts and pastries.
-
Toppings: A perfect gourmet touch for Greek yogurt, overnight oats, or vanilla gelato.
- Savory Pairings: The natural acidity of the blackberries makes it a sophisticated accompaniment for fresh or soft cheeses (like Ricotta or fresh goat cheese) and even mature cheeses
