Ingredients
Cooking process
To make the jam, you need young green pine cones, which are harvested in late May - early June. We wash the cones under warm running water, remove the twigs. If the cones are too large, feel free to cut them in half. Fill them with cold water and leave overnight. Then we drain the water and fill it with clean filtered or spring water.
Add sugar to the water with cones and put the pan on fire. Bring the mass to a boil, remove the resulting foam. We wash the orange and thinly remove the peel from it, cut it into cubes and add to the boiling jam. Add the juice of half an orange there. Cook the jam for 1 or 2 hours, depending on how thick the syrup you want to get, but remember that after the jam has cooled, it will become even thicker.
