Apple and peach jam for the winter
Ingredients
Servings
  • Apples
    4 pcs
  • Peach
    4 pcs
  • Sugar
    650 G
  • Citric acid
    1 tbsp
Preparation

Step 1

Peel and core the apples using a knife and a vegetable peeler. Simply break the peaches in half and slice them into wedges, just like the apples. Sprinkle a little sugar on the bottom of a bowl and add some of the fruit.

Step 2

Continue placing peach and apple slices in the bowl, sprinkling with sugar, but not in large quantities. Sprinkle the remaining sugar on top and let sit for 5-7 hours.

Step 3

After this time, the fruit slices will float in their own juices without adding any water. Place the bowl over medium heat and bring to a boil.

Step 4

Cook for 5 minutes and add citric acid. Cook for about 1 minute to evenly distribute the preservative, turn off the heat, and let the jam cool completely.

Step 5

Then return to the heat and simmer for another 5 minutes, once the syrup begins to boil. Let it cool completely. Repeat this process 3-4 more times until the fruit slices are firm, not crunchy, and have become translucent.

Step 6

When the peach and apple jam has become thick enough, pour it, still boiling, into sterilized jars and seal for the winter.

Step 7

This beautiful and aromatic apple-peach jam will delight anyone who tries it for the first time.

Please note that the amount of citric acid can be increased or decreased depending on the sweetness of the peaches and apples. This additive will help preserve the clarity of the slices and act as a preservative, preventing the jam from spoiling. Therefore, rinsing the jars with hot water and baking soda is sufficient instead of sterilizing.
