There are so many recipes for various blanks in the world! And there are even more jam recipes. But I never cooked lemon, because I always thought that it would certainly be bitter!
But no, this recipe makes the most delicious lemon jam!
It is necessary
- 1. Lemons - 2 pieces
- 2. Sugar - 100 grams
- 3. Vanilla - 1 pod
- 4. Water - 150 grams
- You will also need:
- 1. A saucepan with a thick bottom (this is a prerequisite)
- 2. Pure water
- 3. Brush for washing fruits
- 4. Special means for washing fruits
Instructions
Step 1
Wash the lemons well with a brush. Cut off the tails, cut the lemons into slices, clean the slices from films and seeds. We do not throw out tails, films and bones, but put them in cheesecloth.
This must be done in order for the taste of the jam to be more lemon, full-bodied and fully developed. If you think the taste will be good as it is, you can skip this step.
Cut the peeled lemon slices to any size - the larger the slices, the more textured the jam will be.
Step 2
Put cheesecloth with seeds and tails of lemon in a stewpan with a thick bottom, also send lemon slices, vanilla there (first get the seeds and send them to the stewpan too) and pour water.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium and cook for another 25 minutes.
After that, we take out the gauze, squeeze it out and discard it. Now add sugar, stir and bring to a boil again.
Then we reduce the heat to a minimum and cook for another 30 to 50 minutes.
Further cooking time depends on how thick you want the jam. The longer you cook, the thicker the jam will be.
Step 3
We lay out the finished jam in sterile jars. If you do not plan to store the jam for more than 2 months, then you can simply decompose it into clean jars and store in the refrigerator. In this case, the jam should be consumed 10-14 days in advance.
Delicious lemon and vanilla jam is ready.
Bon Appetit!
I never rolled this jam, as it always went away even faster than in 10 days. I cannot say exactly what the result will be if you twist it. Therefore, if you have spun the jam before, you can try it. If you haven't rolled yet, I recommend looking for another recipe for rolling.
