Green apple jam in slices

Ingredients

Servings

Apples

1 kg
Sugar

1 kg

Preparation

Step 1

Cut the apples in half, remove the seed sac, and slice into about 5 mm thick slices. Place the apples in a bowl in small portions and sprinkle with sugar, continuing to alternate layers. Cover and let sit overnight.

Step 2

Pour the juice into a large bowl and use a soft spatula to scoop out the apples and any undissolved sugar. Turn the heat to medium and bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 minutes. Don't stir, just press gently on the apple slices to prevent them from breaking and to ensure they're thoroughly coated with the syrup. Leave them on the stovetop until completely cool.

Step 3

Turn the heat to medium and simmer for 10 minutes. Let it simmer again until it cools.

Step 4

Now cook the jam for 10 to 30 minutes, depending on how much juice has been released from the apple slices. The color and consistency will vary depending on the cooking time. With minimal cooking, the apples will float in a thin, clear syrup, while with maximum cooking, they will be amber and fairly thick.

Step 5

The green apple jam is ready. Pour it into jars while hot and seal.

Step 6

Or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate. If desired, spoon some apple jam into a deep bowl and serve as a dessert.

Selection of fruits

Prepare jam from unripe apples Or hard varieties, so they don't fall apart when sliced. For example, the Simirenko variety, which is easy to find in supermarkets, works well in preserves, as do inexpensive seasonal apples.
