Pear jam with cinnamon wedges

Today we will make a delicious pear jam with lemon zest and cinnamon. To get a beautiful amber jam with pear pieces in syrup as a result, you need to use hard pear varieties. The spicy cinnamon, which we will add during the preparation process, goes well with pears and gives the jam an amazing aroma, and the lemon peel adds citrus notes, perfectly completing the range of tastes.

Ingredients

Cooking process

step 1 out of 5
For the jam, we chose hard ripe pears so that they retain their shape during the heat treatment. We wash the pears under running water, put them on a kitchen towel so that they dry from the water.
step 2 out of 5
We will not remove the peel from pears - it will help the pear slices to maintain a denser consistency. We cut the pears in half, remove the stems and the core and cut into 4-6 parts, i.e. large slices.
step 3 out of 5
Put the pears in a large container in layers, sprinkling them with sugar. We leave the prepared fruit for 8-10 hours, and preferably overnight. During this time, the pears will be juiced, the sugar will dissolve.
step 4 out of 5
After the time has passed, carefully remove the pears from the sugar syrup and put them in a saucepan. Put the sugar syrup on medium heat, bring to a boil, reduce the heat and, stirring it, boil it for 15-20 minutes. During this time, we will prepare the cans ourselves: rinse them with baking soda, then rinse them with water and sterilize them over steam for 7-10 minutes.
step 5 out of 5
After the syrup has boiled down, put the pears in it, add the lemon zest and cinnamon. Stir and boil the jam for 10-15 minutes, then remove from heat. We distribute the finished hot jam over sterilized jars, tighten them tightly with boiled lids and turn the jars upside down. Leave it to cool completely at room temperature, after which we store it in a cool, dark place.
