Blackberry Jam Tartine

A simple French café staple, this is the recipe for “Blackberry Jam Tartine” from motion picture and cookbook "Savor,” featuring the song "The Fire That Burned Me First" from the “Savor, Part I” soundtrack.

Serves

2 tartines

Ingredients

Method

  1. Slice and toast the bread until golden and crisp on the outside, with a tender interior.

  2. While still warm, spread a thick, even layer of butter over each slice so it melts slightly into the bread.

  3. Spoon blackberry jam over the butter and gently spread, allowing the butter and jam to marble together.

  4. Add a pinch of flaky sea salt.

  5. Serve warm, ideally with coffee, tea, or chocolat chaud.

Notes

  • Use a fresh, high-quality baguette with structure so it holds the jam without becoming soggy.

  • Use a slightly tart jam, which balances the richness of the butter best.
