Sort out the berries for blackcurrant jam for the winter, remove the branches. Place the currants in a bowl and cover with cold water. Usually a lot of small debris floats to the surface, remove it. If necessary, drain the water and rinse the berries again. Place in a colander and let the water drain.
Place the currants in a jam bowl or wide saucepan, add sugar, mix gently and leave the berries with sugar overnight, covering the bowl with gauze or a towel.
Place the bowl with currants on the fire, pour in water and, stirring, bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and start skimming off the foam, collecting it from the edges to the center.
Cook the currant jam at a gentle simmer over low heat for 50-60 minutes, the syrup should thicken. Check the readiness of the jam: pour a spoonful of syrup onto a saucer and cool. Run the handle of a spoon over the syrup; if a clear streak remains, the jam is ready.
Remove the bowl from the heat and cool the blackcurrant jam for the winter. Place into clean, dry jars. Cover with lids and store at room temperature.
