Orange jam

A real love, who did not ever have breakfast just some cookies with orange jam? ? I do not say that it is good to feed the runs, but in trouble we are happy to have a bottle of these.

There is a wide variety of recipes to make orange jam, if you don't ask the grandmother . They are all very laborious, because you have to make several cooked to remove the excess of bitter, but this does not mean that it is very difficult, only that you have to do it with patience and I assure you that work is really worth it, because the result is beautiful.

Tips to be taken into account

• For proportions:

For a kilo of orange, 600 gr. of sugar. With these proportions, the jam will be left with a more fruit flavor and not too sweet. If you want something different, you change them.

Now, with 1 kilo of oranges it is likely to come out like 4 jams of jam, full to the top.

• To keep home orange jam:

The best way will be hot packaging and in sterilized bottles (they are sterilized in a water bath for 30 minutes). 

Then we just have to put them face down to create a vacuum while cooling. We go around and save them in the refrigerator.

• The best way to cook orange jam:

The ideal will be cooking everything in a thick bottom pot and low heat. In the beginning it can be stirred every so often, but once the liquid evaporates almost completely you have to stir it more frequently and be attentive that it does not stick or burn. 

• If you like bitter jam , leave the white part of the orange.

• To know the fair point of the jam:

You just have to put a talk on the freezer for 20 minutes. After the time, it puts a little of the jam on the plate and pass with a spoon through the middle. The trick is that if the jam takes to gather it is because it is already ready. 

• To use the shell in a different way

You can cut the peel of one of the oranges in finite strips and then cook them in a little water. If we repeat this two or three times we get the bitter and then we can add some sugar. We cook once again until they are tender. They look very good to add them to the jam
