Step 1:
To make pear jam, you will need only two ingredients - these are pears and sugar. Pears can be used of any variety. The most important thing is that they are ripe and not hard.
Step 2:
Wash the pears well in running water from dirt. Then peel, cut in half and remove the core.
Step 3:
Cut the peeled pears into pieces and put them in a saucepan in which you will cook the jam. Cooking utensils can be enameled or glass. It is not necessary to use aluminum, so that the oxidation of fruit juice does not occur. Pieces of pears can be of any size. Here the shape of the pieces does not play a role, since then everything will be crushed.
Step 4:
Sprinkle the sliced pears with sugar and leave to stand for 3-4 hours so that they let the juice. You don't need to add all the sugar at once. If the pears themselves are sweet, then you may need less sugar than indicated in the recipe.
Step 5:
After the specified time, the pears will release juice. Put the pan on the fire and bring everything to a boil. Boil the pears over low heat for 30 minutes. During this time, the pears will become very soft and will boil.
Step 6:
Grind the whole pear mass with an immersion blender until smooth. Then return the pan to the heat and simmer for another 10 minutes. Do not forget to mix the mass so that the jam does not start to burn. The longer the jam is cooked, the thicker and darker it will become.
Step 7:
Jam jars are well washed and sterilized in a convenient way for you. This can be done in the oven, in the microwave or over hot steam. Just pour boiling water over the lids.
Step 8:
Pour the boiling jam into the prepared jars and close the lid. Wrap the jars in a warm blanket and cool completely in this form. Then wrap it in a blanket? This is necessary in order for the jam to cool down as slowly as possible. With this cooling, it will become even thicker. Store the cooled jars in a cool place. Have a nice treat!
