I have just come across jujube fruit. When I stopped by Arnavutköy market on weekdays, the first thing that caught my attention was the fruits that were bright like a pineapple on the outside but the size of a walnut.
Although I was hesitant to eat when the seller offered it, when I tasted it, I was really surprised when I realized that it had a taste and sweetness that I had never known before.
The outside of the fruit is like an apple with a sandy core, but the core is similar to an olive seed. The leaves can be used as tea, dried in the sun and eaten as a fruit.
Its weight is quite expensive, but if you bargain, they give a discount. Since I took a small amount and ate some of it, I decided to make jujube jam from the fruits and I am very happy with the result. I definitely recommend you to try it. Love….

- 300 gr jujube fruit (18-20 pieces)

How to Make Jujube Jam Recipe?
- Wash the jujube fruits (peel if you want) and chop finely.
- Put the chopped fruits in the pot where you will boil the jam and wait for it to be watered by pouring granulated sugar on it. (minimum 5 hours or 1 night)
- Add water to the watered fruits and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the consistency thickens. Squeeze the lemon 2-3 minutes before taking it off the stove.
- When the jam reaches the desired consistency, take it off the stove. Pour into jars while hot, close tightly when cool.
Jujube is a fruit-herb that I learned at the monthly conference "kidney health and hypertension" held by our nephrologist doctor open to the public. He strongly recommended his tea to patients with diabetes. Diabetes affects both the kidney, liver and pancreas, and it also causes high blood pressure because it impairs metabolism. Three glasses of jujube tea a day regulates blood pressure (not in one day, of course) and prevents sugar… Blood pressure can also improve gradually.
The tea is made like this: 6-9 pieces of jujube are washed, thrown into 3 glasses of boiling water. And the fire is turned off. A glass of cooled tea is drunk in the morning, at noon and in the evening. The jujube inside is not thrown away, they are eaten equally. …
I made it too, it was very nice, it was not watered too much, I put the water completely, it was amazing.
I don't add water while boiling the fruits I left in sugar for 1 night, I make my jam with the water they leave :)
I've never heard of it, but I'm sure it's very interesting, I'm sure it's delicious, eat the image, it says good luck…
I like jujube, but I've heard its jam for the first time, I'm a little hesitant :)
