In summer, the fruit yield is large and the taste is good. For example, peach, apricot, plum, etc. you often buy too many fruits as soon as you buy them. If you can't finish eating them, they will rot easily. It's too wasteful to throw them away. Can them or jam them. You can eat them until winter. There are many ways to eat jam. It can be spread on bread slices or steamed bread. It can be used for breakfast. It can be made into the stuffing of bread or cake. Or it can be used to make fruit tea for drinking. It can be sprinkled on ice cream. It's all lollipop. A few days ago, my husband brought back a large bag of ripe plums. It can be about ten jin. It's from the trees in the yard of his work unit. There is no wild fruit that has been hit with pesticides at all. It's a little bigger than hawthorn. It's purple red. It's very attractive. The skin is crispy, slightly sour and astringent. The flesh is very moist, sweet and sour. It's a pity that many of them broke when they were rocked down from the tree. We ate some of them first, and many of them were easy to ferment and sour even if they were refrigerated in the refrigerator. So I made them delicious

Cooking Steps
Step1:Wash the plums. Drain the water.
Step2:Cut the plums in half. Squeeze out the core. Throw the pulp into the inner barrel of the toaster. If you don't have a toaster, just cut the pulp into small pieces, put it into a frying pan, add water and stir over the fire. It's similar to the jam function of the toaster.
Step3:Add a little water in the bread barrel. Start the jam function of the bread machine. The default operation time is about 50 minutes. You don't need to worry about it when you close the lid. In the picture, you start to heat and stir.
Step4:After the procedure of the bread machine is executed, it is the jam with thin texture as shown in the figure. It needs to be poured into the frying pan to collect the juice.
Step5:Pour in a non stick frying pan. Turn on the medium heat. Stir continuously with a spatula. Be careful not to stop mixing. Otherwise, it is easy to paste the bottom.
Step6:Stir fry until it looks like the picture. Not only the color is darker, but also the texture is thicker. It's like porridge with big bubbles. Then it's almost the same. You can taste it. Add a small amount of sugar one by one. Turn on a small heat. Continue to fry until the sugar melts.
Step7:Stir fry until it is smooth and glossy. Dig a little jam with a spoon. Put the spoon down. The jam on it will not flow down. There is no obvious peel in the jam. The jam will be cooked.
Step8:The above steps are finished. There is also a very important link - disinfection of jam containers. Put the bottle and lid together in clear water. Boil for 15 minutes. Remove and drain. I use glass jars. The jars can be tightened and sealed. You can also use IKEA's sealed glass bottles or sealed fresh boxes. It's better not to use metal cans. The fruit acid in jam is easy to corrode the metal surface. In addition, make sure to cook thoroughly, kill bacteria and microorganisms, and keep the jam sealed. Jam is not easy to deteriorate.
Step9:Finally, put the jam into the bottle. Tighten the lid while it's hot. Put it in the refrigerator and refrigerate it. Tighten the cover while it's hot. It's a bit like vacuuming.
Cooking tips:1. The fruit used to make jam should be ripened in seven or eight minutes. It is relatively balanced in sour and sweet. It also contains a lot of pectin, acid and tannin. It can make jam present a smooth and gelatinous texture and form a compound taste level. It is more delicious than eating fruit directly. 2. Sugar plays a role of natural antisepsis for jam. A large amount of sugar penetrates into the pulp, making the water in the cell analyze out, and making the microorganism unable to grow. 3. Some fruits are rich in pectin. There is no need to add extra pectin. Some fruits like blueberries and apricots, which lack pectin, need to add a little pectin. The optimal pH value of pectin is 2.8-3.5. If the acidity is not in place, additional ingredients such as lemon juice need to be added to make it delicate and easy to smear. There are skills in making delicious dishes.
