During lab session, we were taught to cook apple jam! This is the first time I make my own jam, so excited!!!
This is the apple jam i made...
Here, i would like to share the recipe of how apple jam is made:
♥ Choose the smallest green apples.
♥ remove the wax on the apples.
♥ Wash, peel, quarter and core the apples and blend the apples flesh into smaller pieces.
♥ Boil the peels and cores of the apples with 250 mL of water to extract pectin which is assist in gelling of jam.
♥ After 20 minutes, filter the peels and cores of the apples. Add the blended apples to the filtrate and cook it until it become brown colour.
♥ After that add in 3.0 g of pectin and 30.0 g of sugar. Boil until the pectin and sugar dissolved.
