Cooking Steps
Step1:Preparation stage: Apple washed, peeled, cored, cut into small pieces, soaked in light salt water for 20 minutes, then fished and drained; glass bottle washed and dried for us
Step2:Curing process - put the apple pieces into the pot. Add in the sugar and mix well. Marinate for 1 hour to extract pectin
Step3:Boil over heat - add in the rock sugar. Cook over medium heat until it is bubbling. Turn to low heat. Skim off the froth. Stir evenly from the bottom of the pot. Cut the lemon half, remove the seeds and squeeze the juice into the pot. Boil until it is thick

Cooking tips:① the sweetness of jam depends on personal preference. Considering the sweetness of the fruit itself, the amount of general sugar accounts for 30% and 50% of the fruit; ② if there is enough time, the curing time of the fruit can be extended appropriately. This time, I prepare the fruit in the evening. I marinate overnight. A lot of water will be separated out. The sugar will melt completely. I will start cooking the next day; ③ I can't use iron pot to cook jam. It's better to use copper pot. Or Enamel pot and stainless steel pot; the best tool for mixing is wooden shovel, which can also be used as silica gel spoon; ④ lemon juice can not only enrich the taste of jam, but also make jam thicker and more anticorrosive; ⑤ the glass bottle for jam must be free of water and oil, and the spoon or spatula used must be clean to ensure the jam quality; ⑥ the sealing effect is better when the buckle is placed upside down in summer Put it in the refrigerator for cold storage every day. It can be preserved at room temperature in winter. ⑦ a kind of fruit can be used to make pure jam. Two or more kinds of fruit can also be used to make more jam
