Lingonberry jam with Antonovka apples

Lingonberry jam with Antonovka apples is made similarly to amber jam. The apple slices are sprinkled with sugar to draw out the juice. This keeps the apples firm and marmalade-like. For this effect, you only need to let them sit at room temperature for two hours, but you can also leave them overnight.

Preparation

Step 1

Cut the apples into pieces and sprinkle with sugar, let sit for 2 hours.

Step 2

Add the lingonberries and stir gently, being careful not to damage them. Place over low heat and simmer until the sugar is completely dissolved.

Step 3

Once boiling, stir gently and cook for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, fill three washed 0.5-liter jars halfway with water for each serving. Microwave for 3 minutes at full power. Cook the lids separately on the stovetop.

Step 4

Simmer the lingonberry and apple jam until thickened, about 10 minutes, turning up the heat slightly. Don't try to make it too thick, as it will thicken further.

Step 5

Turn off the heat and pour into jars, seal and let cool upside down.

About the consistency of jam
Apples contain pectin, a natural thickener that activates at approximately 107 degrees Celsius (220 degrees Fahrenheit). It requires a lot of sugar and acid, which is provided by the lingonberries in this recipe. Pectin is what makes the jam thicker and more flavorful after it cools.
