Most experienced housewives have already learned how to prepare their winter food, canned different types of pickles and make delicious jam.
Of particular importance is the preparation of jams, because they are consumed not only in winter but also in summer, when you want to serve delicious pancakes with jam or cakes and cakes with fruit filling.
You can find many recipes for making jam, but it is very important to follow some basic rules so that your jam can be really not only durable, but also delicious. That is why here we will introduce you to the basic techniques for making jam:
- Always pick or buy the fruit you will use to make the jam on the day you decide to make it. Choose only ripe but uninjured fruits that do not boil during heat treatment;
- If you make jam from softer fruits, it is good to do it at intervals. This means that when you put the fruits sprinkled with sugar or sugar syrup on the stove, you must, after boiling them, remove them from the heat, cool them and then put them back on. This is the secret of the perfect jam. This action can take even hours, but it is certain that in this way the jam will really become perfect, because it equalizes the sugar content in the fruits themselves, especially if they are juicier;
- Even if you have a lot of fruit and jars in which to close the jam, do not rush to cook everything together. It has been proven that it is not good to put to boil more than 2- 2.5 kg of jam at once;
- Always wash the jars in which you will close the jam well and make sure that their lids can be hermetically closed. It is also a good idea to keep the jars well dried before filling them;
- When preparing the jam, it is extremely important to consider the right moment when it is ready. This means that the syrup must have thickened enough and at the same time not been overcooked. Tested in this case is the method in which you put a drop of syrup in a glass of cold water. It should reach the bottom of the cup and be easily diluted with stirring. Another way is to scoop the fruit syrup with a slotted spoon, tilt it slightly down and watch it carefully. An indication that the syrup is ready is if the drops collect at the top of the spoon and fall together, not separately into the syrup.
