Let’s talk about jam…
We can make
jam from all the fruits. Also by combining fruits. When it comes to fruits with
thick skin, like oranges, we first need to boil them for half an hour, drain
them and melt them, before we put them in the food processor. That will help
the grinding and avoid using lots of water.
We try not to use water, to help jam to thicken faster. The ideal dosage
should be: 1kg fruit- 800g sugar. However, we may change the dosage depending
on our taste or health issues. We should never forget that during the boiling
we should stir frequently, because it is very easy to burn and stick on the
pot, thus taking a very heavy smell. Some fruits might leave more juice, so
after we have thicken it is advisable to double check for any extra liquid and
if needed boil again before place in the jar.
