Rhubarb and Orange Jam for Winter

A recipe for true sweet tooths! Give it a try — you'll love it. It's so tasty and fragrant that a batch sometimes doesn't even make it to winter.

Rhubarb season means jam-making time. Rhubarb is a treasure trove of vitamins — B1, B2, B6, C, niacin, and more. And the jam is finger-licking good: delicious, aromatic, sweet-tart, with a delicate note of orange. Give this version a try! Your family will be pleasantly surprised that such an unassuming vegetable can turn into something this tasty.

  • To make rhubarb jam: wash the rhubarb in cold water and peel it (you don't have to — I leave the skin on, since it's full of vitamins) and cut it into pieces about 1/4–1/2 inch long. Spread the pieces in a single even layer on a baking sheet and dry them in the oven for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, wash 3 oranges well and remove the peel (or use the whole orange), then chop them very finely or run them through a meat grinder. Tip the dried rhubarb into a pot, cover it with sugar, add the oranges, and cook in 3 rounds of about 5–8 minutes each (boil for the set time while stirring, turn off, and let cool between rounds). That's it — then seal it in sterilized jars and enjoy the jam all winter (if it lasts that long =)).
