Kiwi jam for winter

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make kiwi jam for the winter? Prepare the products. Kiwi choose medium hardness, too soft fruits can be spoiled. There should be no dark spots on the surface. Be sure to smell the kiwi — the wine smell speaks of spoilage. To prepare the jam, peel the required amount of kiwi.

2. Step 2:

   

   Cut the peeled fruits into cubes and put them in a bowl in which you will cook jam. It is better if it is enameled, not aluminum.

3. Step 3:

   

   Cover the kiwi with sugar, shake so that the sugar is evenly distributed between all the pieces. In this form, leave the fruits for a few hours so that the kiwi juice is released. It is best to do this overnight.

4. Step 4:

   

   After a while, enough juice should be released to make jam.

5. Step 5:

   

   Put the bowl on a small fire and bring the whole mass to a boil. Boil it for a couple of minutes and turn it off. Cool to room temperature (or at least just warm).

7. Step 6:

   

   Then catch all the kiwi pieces. It is convenient to do this with a slotted spoon. Set them aside for now.

8. Step 7:

   

   Bring the remaining syrup to a boil again and cook over low heat for 30 minutes. During this time, it will become thicker. When cooking, do not forget to remove the foam that will form. We don't need it.

9. Step 8:

   

   Wash the lemon well, dry it, cut it in half and squeeze the juice out of it. Add the juice to the boiling syrup. Then return the kiwi slices back to the syrup and bring everything to a boil. Boil all the ingredients together for 3-5 minutes.

10. Step 9:

    

    Sterilize pre-prepared jars and lids. How to do this and many other useful tips on blanks, read at the end of the recipe.

11. Step 10:

    

    Pour the boiling jam into the prepared jars and close the lids. Wrap the inverted jars in a blanket and leave the jam to cool in this form. Then you can put it away in a cool place until winter. Have a nice winter tea party!
