Step 1:
How to make jam from pears for winter? Choose pears for the recipe of soft and sweet varieties. Preferably yellow. Instead of stevia, you can classically use sugar. Lemon juice is added in order to give sourness to sweet jam. You can adjust its quantity to your taste. It will also serve as a preservative for longer storage.
Step 2:
Wash and dry the pears thoroughly. Cut off the peel from them, cut into pieces, removing the cores with seeds.
Step 3:
Place the pears cut into pieces in a saucepan and pour boiling water so that the water covers the pears. Choose either enameled or stainless steel cookware for cooking. Aluminum can react with acid, do not take a pot from it.
Step 4:
Put a pot of pears on a small fire. Bring to a boil and leave to cook for 15 minutes. Foam will form. Take it off.
Step 5:
Next, add stevia to the pan with pears, stir it until completely dissolved.
Step 6:
When the 15 minutes are up, remove the pan from the heat and mash the pears with a crush so that they turn into mashed potatoes. Return the pan to the heat and leave to cook on low heat for another 20 minutes. Stir the puree from time to time.
Step 7:
Add lemon juice, it can be squeezed out of one slice of lemon. Mix it up. And leave to cook for another 20 minutes on low heat. Stir during this period more often so that the jam does not burn.
Step 8:
Pear jam should boil to a thick state and begin to caramelize. When this happens, remove the jam pan from the heat. Immediately pour it into sterilized jars and close with sterilized lids. Store the pear jam in a cool, dry place.

A very convenient recipe if you have a crop of precocious pears that are poorly stored. They can immediately be turned into a wonderful jam and enjoy it in the cold season.

You can add such jam in the morning to oatmeal, you can put it on bread and drink tea or milk. You can just eat with a spoon in a bite with some bitter drink: tea, chicory or coffee, without sweetening them, because the jam is so very sweet.
You can grind pear jam with an immersion blender to have a more puree-like homogeneous consistency, if you like it that way. When we crush with a crush, tiny pieces remain and someone likes this consistency more. Some people prefer even bigger pieces of pears in jam. So that you can chew them. And these pieces become transparent when cooking and the jam then looks very nice.
Bon appetit!
