Banana and melon jam

1. The melon is thoroughly washed under running water. Dry with a paper towel. Then we peel it. We try to cut as thin as possible. Cut the melon in half, clean the seeds.

2. The flesh of the melon is cut into small cubes. We put it in a saucepan in which it is planned to cook jam. It is desirable that this pan has a thick bottom.

3. Fill the melon with sugar. We leave it for 10-12 hours so that the melon gives juice. And after the specified time, add the juice of one lemon to the melon and send the pan to the fire.

4. Bring the mass to a boil, cook on low heat for about 30 minutes. In the process, gently stir and be sure to remove the foam with a slotted spoon.

5. The remaining lemon is thoroughly washed. Then pour boiling water over it. The prepared citrus is cut into thin slices directly with the peel. We remove the seeds.

6. Peel bananas. Cut into pieces. We put lemon slices and banana slices in a saucepan with melon. Mix it up.

7. Cook the jam on low heat until thickened. If there are urgent matters, the pan can be removed from the heat, and continue cooking at a convenient time.

8. Then we lay out the melon and banana jam in pre-prepared jars. We seal it tightly.

Everything is ready. We allow the blanks to cool down to room temperature, after which we transfer them to a permanent storage place. Jam is stored well even in a city apartment. The main thing is to put the cans in a dark place, protected from direct sunlight.

Have a pleasant tasting!
