To make cherry jam, you need to use thickeners, since the berry itself contains a minimum amount of natural pectin. This recipe uses agar agar. Jam based on it turns out to be thick and very tasty.

Ingredients

Cherry 600 gr. Granulated sugar 350 gr. Agar agar 1 tsp

Cooking process

The cherries must be washed, then pitted. For convenience, you can use a special device.

We take out a blender, pour berries into its bowl and use a nozzle with a metal knife to interrupt the cherry.

Pour the resulting berry mass into a saucepan and add granulated sugar. Sprinkle and set aside 1 teaspoon of sugar for now.

The contents of the pan must be boiled and then cooked for another 5 minutes. Stir the berries with sugar all the time and skim off the foam periodically.

Combine a teaspoon of granulated sugar and agar-agar, then slowly pour them into the pan, not forgetting to stir all the time.

Cook the jam for about 7 minutes more. A sure sign that the jam is ready is that its consistency will begin to thicken. But it is in the cold state that the jam will thicken completely. After the cherry jam has cooled, you can treat yourself to it. You can store this jam at room temperature. If you are making cherry jam for winter seaming, then increase the amount of food you use. From the specified amount of berries, granulated sugar and agar-agar, approximately 550 ml of jam is obtained.

Enjoy your tea!
