Strawberry jam is not boiled. Consider some unusual recipes for strawberry jam

It is important for every hostess that her culinary delights were noticed by both relatives and guests, and, most importantly, so that they could brag to their friends. Bring in a beautiful jar from the pantry, open it for questioning glances and put your masterpieces in small cups.

Each family has long had its own traditions of making jam. This is due to the fact that the process itself is associated with the dishes in which the jam is cooked, with the proportions of the ingredients, with the cooking time, with how, when and in which dishes to put the cooked jam.

And yet - how to cook Strawberry jam for the winter? What is the best recipe? There are many ways to cook. This article will consider not only the recipes and methods for making strawberry jam, but also the preparation of berries for cooking and tips for storing jam.

Preparing berries

Berries for fragrant and tasty strawberry jam must be properly prepared. This is not difficult to do, but it is important to observe all the subtleties.

  • All berries must be carefully sorted by size; only small and medium berries are suitable for jam. Overripe, crushed, unripe berries must be removed. From large berries it will be possible to cook another jam, so it is better to put them in another container.
  • Remove sepals from berries. This operation is best done in thin rubber (medical) gloves, as the skin on the fingers and under the nails darkens, it is very difficult to clean.
  • Weigh the berries, remember the weight: the amount of other ingredients will be calculated from it.
  • Put the peeled berries in a colander, dip three or four times in a wide and deep container (bucket) with water, to wash off debris and earth from the berries. It is impossible to wash off with water from the tap - horse debris is not washed off at the same time, and the berries can be wrinkled under the pressure of water.
  • Dry the berries in a colander, letting the water drain, for ten minutes.

Classic recipe for strawberry jam for the winter

Ingredients

  • Strawberries - 1 kg
  • Sugar - 1.2 kg
  • Water - 1.2 l

Cooking method

  1. Pour the measured amount of granulated sugar into a saucepan with a measured amount of water. Heat over a fire, bring with stirring until completely dissolved, heat to a boil.
  2. The dried berries are carefully transferred to a wide and fairly deep dish (based on this calculation: for 1 kg of berries you need a 3-liter saucepan). The pan should not be enameled (the jam will burn in it), it is better if it is a special brass basin or a basin made of of stainless steel(perhaps kept from my grandmother), a simple aluminum pan or a modern pan with a double or triple bottom will do.
  3. Pour the berries with hot syrup, put on fire and start cooking. The total cooking time should not exceed 40 minutes. The first ten minutes, cook over medium heat until abundant foam appears. During the rest of the cooking time, the fire should be low.
  4. When foam appears, take the pan with both hands, shake, remove from heat, remove the foam. We do this throughout the cooking, carefully making sure that the jam does not burn. To do this, it must be gently stirred with a slotted spoon, trying not to crush the berries.
  5. We cook the jam until foaming stops or the jam starts to boil more slowly with the same fire power. This moment should not be missed, since the readiness and quality of the jam itself depends on it.
  6. To determine the readiness of the jam, we use two methods: we take hot syrup from the pan with a spoon, we begin to pour it out quietly; if it flows slowly, and not in a fast thin stream, the jam is ready; take a spoonful of syrup, cool, pour a drop on a saucer; if the syrup remains in the form of a drop, the jam is ready.

Important! Ready jam must meet certain requirements:

  • The berries should be transparent or half transparent, but not float.
  • The syrup of the prepared jam should be of a thick consistency.
  • The color of the syrup should correspond to the color of dark strawberries without a brown tint (a brown tint indicates caramelization - that is, the jam is digested).
  • Berries and syrup in cooked jam should be equally divided.

Pour the finished jam into a prepared dish.

For any jam, you need to take small jars, no more than 1 liter, preferably 0.5 liters or 0.3 liters.

This is necessary for three reasons:

  • in case of damage to the jam, it is not a pity to throw away a small jar,
  • an open jar of jam should not stand for more than a week, even in the refrigerator (jam is saturated with other odors, it may become moldy),
  • finally, from a large amount of delicious jam they get fat, sadly.

We prepare jars by the method of hot drying: we wash hot water With detergent, put in the oven, heat the jars for 5-10 minutes, make sure that they do not burst.

We spread hot jam in hot jars, the level of which should not reach 0.5 cm to the top of the neck.

We roll up the jars with lids, previously boiled in water and dried.

Refrigerate the finished jam natural way, we take it to a cold room, if there is none, then we store it in the refrigerator until autumn, then on the balcony until frost, then we eat it if something remains by that time.

Jam prepared in the classical way is eaten first, especially by children.

  2. Put in a wide bowl (can be in any bowl) not a thick layer. Fall asleep half the right amount granulated sugar, leave for three hours. Berries will give juice during this time, granulated sugar dissolve almost completely.
  3. We prepare the syrup in a saucepan in which we will prepare the jam. Pour the remaining granulated sugar into the water according to the recipe, heat, mix, bring to a boil, carefully shift the berries with syrup.

The cooking process, the definition of readiness are exactly the same as in classic way.

Cooking jam from large berries requires a certain skill, since the berries can easily be wrinkled or not cooked, so you need to carefully monitor the process itself and mix the jam very carefully.

You need to lay out and store jam in the same way as with the classic method.

How to cook strawberry jam so that the berries remain whole, many hostesses know, right? But how to make strawberry jam without boiling berries, I will tell and show you today. That's why simple recipe you will get fragrant, whole berries in sweet and thick syrup - a fabulous treat for the whole family!

A prerequisite for any delicious strawberry jam can be safely called high-quality raw materials, that is, berries. IN this case try to choose fragrant strawberries small size (closer to small), whole, dense and elastic. Crumpled or very large berries will not work - they will not keep their shape and even fall apart in mashed potatoes. Spoiled and will completely cause fermentation in the bank - sweet preparation will have to be thrown away.

I would not recommend reducing the amount of granulated sugar for strawberry jam without cooking, since this is a preservative. In addition, various spices (cinnamon, cardamom and others) personally for our family do not go well with this dessert: my family loves, so to speak, pure taste and the aroma of this fragrant berry.

Total of specified quantity necessary ingredients it turns out about 1 liter of strawberry jam without cooking. You can pick up jars of the volume that suits you best. I used 3 jars with a capacity of 200 milliliters each and 1 half-liter jar, in which I separately closed the thick strawberry syrup.

Ingredients:

Cooking step by step with photos:



The berries for this recipe are suitable for medium-sized, elastic and excellent quality. We sort out the strawberries (substandard, that is, wrinkled, can be used to make strawberry jam or marshmallow, and safely throw away the spoiled ones) and mine. To do this, we collect cold water in a large container, put berries in it and let them swim for just a minute - this way the sand will sink to the bottom. Gently mix the strawberries with your hands, then remove and transfer to a colander. It is important not to remove the stalks until the berries are clean. Otherwise, strawberries will absorb a large amount of water and become sour.


We remove the stalks and put the clean berries in a suitable container. The weight of strawberries (1 kilogram) is indicated in the already prepared form.


Now let's start preparing sugar syrup, which we will subsequently pour strawberries into. To do this, pour 800 grams of sugar into a small saucepan with a thick bottom or a saucepan and pour 150 milliliters of water there (you can cold, you can hot - as you like).


Put the dishes on strong fire and, stirring, bring the contents to a boil. When all the sugar has dissolved and the syrup boils, make medium heat and cook for about 5-6 minutes. Don't forget to remove the foam!


Pour the strawberries with boiling syrup, slightly melting the berries with a spoon or spatula. No need to stir strawberries!


In this position, leave the strawberries in syrup at room temperature until completely cooled - this may take a couple of hours. In the process of cooling, strawberries will give the syrup their juice, color and aroma. The berries themselves will become a little lighter and compacted.


Carefully pour the syrup back into the saucepan, bring to a boil and cook over medium heat for 5-6 minutes (remove the foam). During this time sugar syrup slightly thicken due to evaporation of moisture.




A similar procedure should be carried out 1-2 more times (a total of 3-4 fillings are obtained). The photo shows already cooled strawberries in syrup after 3 fillings with syrup.


Now it remains to close the strawberry jam without cooking for the winter. To do this, you need to carefully prepare the jar and lids in advance in any way convenient for you. I like doing it the best microwave oven- for this blank, I use 3 jars, each with a capacity of 200 milliliters, and 1 jar, with a capacity of 500 milliliters. Thoroughly wash the jars with soda or detergent, then rinse in cold water and pour 2 fingers of water into the bottom of each. We put it in the microwave and steam everything together at the highest power for about 6-7 minutes. I just wash the lids, put them in a saucepan, pour water (to completely cover the lids) and boil for about 5 minutes. We put the berries in three prepared 200-ml jars. A half-liter jar will be needed a little later.

Strawberry jelly without gelatin - a recipe for the winter

Quite often, people come to me with such a question about how to make such a jam, but at the same time, so that it is thick and looks like jelly. Everyone knows that you can add gelatin and achieve such an effect, but you can do without it.

Now so many different substances have been invented, such as agar-agar, pectin, etc., that sometimes you can’t keep up with new technologies and their derivatives.

But, all the same, you should not lag behind, go ahead or along with the time and create.

I want to say that strawberry jelly can be used on cakes or pastries, or just enjoy and eat it with a couple of buns.

We will need:

  • berry grated in a meat grinder - 3 tbsp.
  • granulated sugar - 4 tbsp.
  • lemon - 1 pc.
  • pectin - 2 sachets of 14 g

Stages:

1. I will start this description not, as always, but with you preparing jars with lids in advance. Boil them. And usually for such a treat, small containers are taken, for example, half a liter or liter jars and even less.


2. Sort and wash the strawberries, if it is too large, cut in half, then pass through a meat grinder or you can use an ordinary fine sieve.

Mix the pectin with the squeezed lemon juice and pour into the grated strawberries, bring to a boil on the stove.


3. Do not forget to stir often so that nothing sticks to the bottom of the pan. As soon as the bubbles go, add sugar and stir. Boil until the sugar, or rather its grains, dissolve completely.


4. Since pectin gives the ability to harden quickly, immediately immediately distribute the mixture into jars and close with screw caps.
