BLACK CURRANT CHEESECAKE
This is a delicious dessert, again it was one I trialed last year in a food tech lesson, so I had an hour to make the whole thing and it really does need longer to chill for it to set properly. The design brief was to make the food healthier, so I had to lower salt, fat and sugar content and raise fibre, however this still tastes great. (It's hard to make cheesecake healthy!) The blackcurrants give it a wonderful flavour, I defrosted and used up berries I'd picked the previous year, frozen and forgotten about. I served this in clear individual ramekins so you can see the layers of base and topping, it looks brilliant! Yum Yum Yum. =)

Steps:
- Put a pan on low heat and melt the butter.
- Take the pan off the heat and stir in the biscuit crumbs and the ground almonds.
- Spread the biscuity base mixture, covering the bottom of each ramekin, smooth down.
- Put in fridge to cool.
- Pour the double cream into a bowl and whisk until stiff but don't let curdle.
- Stir in the cream cheese.
- Combine most of the sieved blackcurrants until it all turns a rich purple colour and reaches a fairly thick consistency.
- Fetch the bases from the fridge and pour in a thin layer of the pureed blackcurrants then evenly fill the ramekins up to the rim with the cheese cake topping.
- Smooth off the top with a palette knife and carefully marble in whatever remains of the blackcurrant puree.
- Slice up the Kiwi and serve with kiwi and a few whole black currants.
- Return to fridge until ready to serve.
- Consume!

BEST EVER BLACK CURRANT JAM
Steps:
- Add the black currants to a deep pot along with the sugar and lemon juice.
- Stir to combine and turn the heat to high, stirring every now and then until the mixture starts to bubble and become hot.
- Use a potato masher to mash the currants until they begin to fall apart.
- When the mixture begins to boil, continue to stir every 30 seconds or so.
- Use an instant-read thermometer - here's a link to mine (affiliate link) - to measure the temperature of the jam as it boils. Be sure the thermometer is measuring at the middle of the jam and not touching the bottom of the pot.
- Continue boiling as the temperature climbs and don't let it stop boiling until it reaches 220 degrees Fahrenheit (for low altitudes) or 210 degrees Fahrenheit (for high altitudes). This should take about 8 minutes or so.
- Once the correct temperature is reached, remove the pot from the heat and carefully spoon the jam into 2 mason jars. The jam might seem a little bit liquid at this stage - don't worry! It will thicken as it cools.
- Add the lids to the jars and allow to cool at room temperature until completely cool.
- Store in the fridge and enjoy!

Steps:
- Melt the butter and sugar in a pan over gentle heat then take off the heat and stir-in the biscuit curmbs. Press this mixture evenly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a greased loose-bottomed 20cm cake tin. Place in the refrigerator and chill for 2 hours.
- Remove the vanilla seeds: Slice the vanilla pod in half lengthways, leaving the tip intact, so that the two halves are still joined. Holding onto the tip of the pod, scrape out the seeds using the back of a kitchen knife.
- Make the filling: Place the soft cheese, sugar and vanilla seeds in a bowl, then beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Tip in the cream and continue beating until the mixture is completely combined. Add the remaining filling ingredients and mix.
- Now spoon the cream mixture onto the biscuit base, working from the edges inwards and making sure that there are no air bubbles. Smooth the top of the cheesecake down with the back of a dessert spoon or spatula. Leave to set in the fridge overnight.
- Carefully lift from the tin and set on a work top. Pipe the whipped cream as a border around the edge of the top of the cheesecake then fill the centre with the stewed blackcurrants. Chill in the fridge for about 3 hours and serve.
- To stew blackcurrants: use 250 gms blackcurrants (tinned, frozen or fresh) add 3 Tbs water and 3 Tbs sugar, bring to the boil and then simmer until the currants burst and then reduce down slightly to get rid of most of the liquid.

BLACKCURRANT CHEESECAKE, 6 WAYS TO STYLE CAKE - A PERSONAL ...
From blackvelvetstyling.com
- So the first style of shot I did was my go to style I guess, brightly lit with back/side indirect natural light from my big patio windows so I get a lot of wrap-around light (see BTS shots further down for my lighting/set up).
- For my second look I wanted to play with the depth of field and bring in more colour, as part of the challenge I wanted to set myself was working with more bright colours that compliment the colours in the food.
- I've gone really simple with this look, using a bold and gritty backdrop you wouldn't necessarily think of for cake styling.
- For my first of the cake wedge images I’ve gone light and cleaner again, trying to use lots of repetition with five pieces of cake.
- For my bright colours look using the cut wedges of cheesecake I've gone tonal but also brought in a purple dish as I wanted a darker element to match the depth of the blackcurrants.
- I love this one, yeeeey! The colours pop, its vibrant but edgy, good contrast, a bit moody. The only things I would change would be to redo the creme fresh - not looking too fresh!
TOP 10 BLACKCURRANT RECIPES - BBC GOOD FOOD
From bbcgoodfood.com
- Summer pudding. This basin summer pudding is a winner on all fronts – it allows you to use up your stale bread as well as a large batch of whatever summer fruits you can lay your hands on.
- Blackcurrant sorbet. Fat-free sorbet is the summer cooler to top all others. This version has a rich and deep flavour, levelled out by fresh mint and sugar syrup.
- Berry crumble. This irresistible pudding isn’t just for chilly nights and Autumn entertaining. Our warmer weather recipe contains a mixture of summer fruit and a base of fresh strawberries.
- Blackcurrant vodka. If you like your booze with a sweet edge, try making your own flavoured liqueur. Our versatile fruit vodka recipe is easily adapted - just replace the 250g of cranberries with the same quantity of fresh blackcurrants.
- Blackcurrant sauce. Berry and game seasons coincide, and if you’re lucky enough to pick up fresh grouse, cut through its rich flavour with a fruit-based sauce.
- Blackcurrant compote. Compote couldn’t be easier to make, and it can be used on yogurt, swirled into ice cream, in cocktails, pies, desserts and so much more besides.
- Blackcurrant pie. Pile a mound of summer berries into a pan, top with an almond pastry lid and let the oven do the work. Soon the fruit will have broken down into a warm red sauce, ready to meld lovingly with cold vanilla ice cream.
- Blackcurrant cordial. Make your own refreshing summer drink using a glut of blackcurrants. Combine this tart fruit with sugar and zingy lemon juice to make a simple syrup.
- Blackcurrant queen of puddings. Tart blackcurrant compote and buttery brioche crumbs give this classic British dessert a vibrant twist. It’s traditionally made with raspberries, but we think the sharpness of blackcurrants balances perfectly with the sweet fluffy meringue topping.
