Lemon jam - recipe

Ingredients:

• fresh lemons - 7 pcs .;
• sugar - 1 kg;
• water - 1 l;
• Vanilla sugar - 1 sachet.

Preparation

How to prepare lemon jam? First, take lemons, thoroughly rinse under running water and pour for a few minutes with steep boiling water, so that then the lemon zest does not give bitterness. Then wipe them and cut into slices, carefully removing all the bones. We put lemons in a saucepan, pour water and cook on small fire for about 45 minutes. Then we pour sugar (both normal and vanilla), mix and boil for another hour. When the time runs out, lemon jam seems at first glance to be completely liquid, but once you remove it from the plate, it will immediately begin to thicken and turn into a kind of jelly. If you still doubt its readiness, then take a saucer with ice water and put a little lemon jam in it, if it does not spread, but forms, then it's ready! While the boiled jam is still hot, pour it into small sterile jars, turn it upside down and set it upside down for 30 minutes. It is stored lemon jam for a long time, even in the open, but only in the refrigerator, so you can safely do it in large batches!

Enjoy your tea with a sunny and bright jam!
