Two, how to choose healthy jam
1, see whether the ingredients are high quality
Whether it is fruit jam or mixed jam, we need to use fruits, we can use the fruit itself as a reference to choose. (1) For example, hawthorn, apple, strawberry and so on belong to their own pectin content is more fruit. If you choose them to make jam, as long as the number of fruits added enough, the amount of pectin will be more, naturally able to achieve the purpose of thickening, there is no need to add additional thickener. (2) You can choose the raw material is berry fruit jam, such as peach, blueberry and so on. The pectin content of such fruits in general, and most of the nutrients will be in the processing of the loss of a lot, but some other active ingredients in the fruit, such as anthocyanins in blueberries, flavonoids in cherries, etc. but still retained a lot. (3) Mixed jam can play a role in complementing the advantages of fruits. It fills the lack of pectin in some fruits, the lack of sweet and sour flavor of some other fruits, or poor taste defects, so that the jam taste and flavor are richer, but each fruit's own nutritional value is not as prominent as a single jam.
2, see whether the ingredients are less
We know that jam can be made at home, as long as the raw materials are high quality, add a large number of sugar, you can play the role of candied preservatives, visible preservatives can be avoided. So the ingredients list in addition to sugar and fruit, pectin, the less other ingredients, the better. If you choose a jam with a low sugar content, you should pay attention to its preservation. If you choose to substitute sugar or sweeteners instead of sugar jam, you should pay attention to the amount of its addition, in order to prevent the body to produce uncomfortable symptoms, especially xylitol once a large number of consumption may lead to diarrhea. So the sugar is also a double-edged sword, in the jam on the role of its preservation is more harm than good.
3, see whether the food color is good
How to pick the jam, ultimately, of course, is to the eye and mouth taste as the ultimate standard. If the jam itself contains more pectin, its consistency is moderate, and was semi-fluid, non-solidified state; did not add or add less coloring and flavoring of the jam, its color is more translucent, natural, you can taste the flesh of the fruit, smell its own very light fruit flavor; and the additional increase in the number of thickening agent of the jam, its mobility is poor, generally blocky, not easy to wipe open; added coloring and flavoring jam, its color will be brighter, the mandarin flavor will be more bright, and the color will be more bright. color will be brighter, mandarin taste obvious.
