  Cooking apricot jam with a proven recipe

  Simple apricot jam without stones for the winter - thick and very tasty

Want to do in store, so that it is not soured and not fermented? Then to help take this note here and cook it.

As a child I remember eating such a masterpiece with my aunt, who always prepares it for the winter, I don’t know why she seemed to get the most tasty from her, probably not casual, I decided to find out all the secrets of cooking this delicacy, which resembles amber transparent color, but taste inexplicably extraordinary.

Important! Rinse apricots well under running water.

It seemed to me by itself, all this procedure is done, but someone does not get jam, it starts to wander, take off, and a lot more can happen. She also told me that it was necessary that there was no bitterness to remove the skin. Although if you love bitterness, it is quite small, then you can do with it. So, to remove the rind, you need to pour boiling water on the apricot for 30 seconds. And then take it out and she herself easily get away from them.

Interesting! If your taste is a miracle, then do not be discouraged the next time just remove the skin from the nucleoli and apricots.

Oh, oh, something I signed, the rest of the recommendations will be given in the description, this is the best recipe from the chef.

We will need:

  • apricots - 1 kg
  • granulated sugar - 1 kg

Important! Note the proportions of 1: 1, always remember this.

Cooking method:

1. Well, here they are our sunny handsome men, ah-ah-ay, the main thing is not to eat them right away while you wash and cut. Once I already cooked jam ... 😛 first I ate the morsel myself, then my husband came in, children followed him and in general I had to boil it another time.

Well, let's get started, first of all, as I have already noted, you need to wash the fruits well, it would be better if you soak them for a while in some water.

Important! Take only the freshest and ripe ones, but at the same time they should be firm, and not soft, soft, ripe ones should be taken for jams or jam.


2. The second action, you will need to remove the bones, how to do it carefully and quickly? There are ways, and how are you doing?

Interesting! The first fastest in my opinion is to take a special device that will remove the bones itself, it is designed to remove cherries and olives, but apricots and peaches can also be used, everyone probably saw it. 🙂

The second way, if there is no such device, then you can simply cut the fruit in half with a knife, because we will not cook this whole food, but slices, this yummy.

The third one is the most original one, you need to take a wand or a pencil, a brush and, as an end, press on the fruit in the middle, helping the bone to come out.


3. Now proceed directly to cooking the products. In order to do this, you need to pour the prepared fruits with sugar, and put them in a cool place.

Important! They must give their juice to get tasty and fragrant.

4. Now put the pan on the stove and bring to the boil the mass, if foam appeared, immediately remove it from the surface. Next, move aside the mass in order for it to cool and the juice is better absorbed, it should take 11-12 hours. After again bring to a boil, and cook for 15-20 minutes, so that everything is bubbling well, do not forget to stir, so that nothing burns.


5. Well, then take the sample, everything is ready, it remains to be poured into the cans, do not forget to sterilize them and roll them up with metal covers with an elastic band.

Important! It is best to take small jars, and this is another question how and where to store? This is best done in a cellar or in a cool place, such as in a refrigerator.

I wish that everything worked out for you at 5+, the main thing is to be in a good mood and everything will work out for you!

  Apricot jam with kernels for the winter

This species will be seedless with nucleoli, and will be assigned to a quick cooking option, in our family it is called "Five minutes". Due to the grains, this sweet delicacy will have a very cool taste, this is almond, by the way, you can take almond nuts instead of apricot.

Interesting! By the way, not only apricots can be cooked for five minutes, but from any other berries, because this is the most useful option, since it does not require much boiling, which means it will save more vitamins that nature has given us. I would also like to note that the time spent on its preparation takes a minimum, and the result is cool, fragrant and very, very beautiful, just awesome-amber.

You can cook this delicacy with the addition of water, but you can without it. Which one do you like more? I will tell you step by step today using water.

We will need:

  • Apricots - 2 kg
  • Apricot kernels - 220 g
  • Sugar - 2 kg
  • Citric acid - 6 g
  • Water - 400 ml or 2 tbsp.


By the way, why add citric acid? So that it is kept longer in the cellar and was not so sweetly sweet, but a little sour in taste.

Cooking method:

1. Well, buy apricots in a store or on the market, try to buy them in August, when they are already ripe, and not in July and June, as this will have a bad effect on the taste of the whole dish, because of unripe fruits will not be so delicious . So, wash the apricots in water, remove the bones from them, and knock the nuts out of the bones, as I did, I wrote and showed you above.

Now the nucleoli can be bought for distribution, but of course I took them from the very apricots of which this jam will be. Boil sugar syrup first, mix water and sugar together, boil until sugar dissolves, then add grains and cook for 14-20 minutes over low heat.


2. Next step, cut apricots into slices, add to the liquid with grains and mix, cook over low heat, after the mixture boils, cook for 5 minutes, stirring with a spoon and removing the foam from the surface.


3. Beautiful and smell like this is in the kitchen! Now throw citric acid, for a sour shade and for better preservation of the dish.

Important! Now leave the jam to stand for about 8-10 hours.


Interesting! After the foam begins to disappear, this indicates that this product is ready.

4. The final stage again, start cooking 5 minutes after boiling, let cool and cook until then, stirring each time until it is ready (about this procedure must be repeated 3-4 times). To check readiness, just drop a drop of jam on a saucer, if the drop does not spread, then it’s time to turn off the stove.

Important! You can even boil it once, and immediately pour it into jars, in which case it will be much more useful, but this is only stored in the refrigerator and not for too long.

Pour into cleaned sterilization jars, roll up under the lid and enjoy the taste.


Important! If it turned out liquid? What to do and how to fix the situation? Just drain the sugar syrup and boil it to the consistency you need.

5. Such a delicious miracle happened with a pleasant aroma of almonds.

3. Next put on the stove and bring to a boil, remove the foam, cook for 5-6 minutes, the boiling should be weak. Do not forget to interfere, but do it carefully, so as not to damage the slices, remove from the stove let it cool. Step number 3 will need to be repeated 4-5 times, of course, you can boil it right away, that is, you can boil it until it is ready, but the result will not be the same, using this technique, the jam will turn into a slice to a slice. Therefore, you decide if time allows, then you have to "try to get around."

4. A finished miracle can be eaten, for example, with any sweet dish, for example, adding it to cottage cheese or ice cream.
