Making steps of strawberry jam
First of all, strawberries contain natural pectin, which can make the shelf life of jam longer. Secondly, you can add some lemon juice in the process of making jam, put it in a container without water and oil, and put it in the refrigerator for preservation. This can greatly extend the shelf life of jam.

Preparation materials: strawberry 1500g, sugar 480g, salt 7g, lemon 1.

Production steps:

1. Soak fresh strawberries in light salt water for 20 minutes and drain.

2. Strawberries are pedicled, cut into pieces and put into containers.

3. Add sugar (rock sugar is the best).

4. Add a spoonful of salt (to make that layer of jam taste richer).

5. Shake gently, cover and marinate for 2 hours, or marinate directly in the refrigerator for one night. There will be a lot of water in strawberries.

6, start heating, first fire, wait for it to boil, turn to a small fire, this time just need to observe its state, occasionally stir.

7. Squeeze a lemon for use. Don't save this, it tastes terrible.

8. Put the lemon juice in and heat it with low fire, sometimes the jam will spill out drop by drop. At this point, the water is almost exhausted. Under normal circumstances, it is necessary to keep stirring and turning over the wok, otherwise it will paste.

9. Pour the jam into the toaster bucket, cover it and enable the jam function.

10, it's good to finish a program. If you cook in a pot, the time will be shorter, but it will also take manpower. It's your choice.

1 1. The cooked jam has a thick texture. In strawberries, there is an acidic polysaccharide called pectin. When it is fried with sugar and heated, it will show a thick gelatinous texture after the water evaporates. This pectin can prolong the storage time of natural jam.

12, put it in a bottle, let it cool, cover it and put it in the refrigerator.
