Strawberry Marmalade
My jam and marmalade recipes are inherited from my grandmother. Whenever I prepare it, I always think about it and talk to it inwardly. Especially when making strawberry and rose jam :)
Today I'm going to tell you some of the tricks he taught me when I was a kid. I believe it will be very useful for you when making jam and marmalade.
1- Sort and wash the fruits for which you will make marmalade or jam, and wait for them to drain. Then remove the cores.
2- Use half or all of the sugar according to the sweetness and ripeness of the fruit. (Like 1 kilo of sugar to 1 kilo of strawberries)
3- If you don't have a blender, put the fruits to make marmalade through a colander before putting them on the stove.
4- Before taking the marmalade or jam from the stove, check its thickness. (Take a piece of marmalade with a teaspoon, drip it on a clean and dry porcelain plate. If it does not flow easily when you tilt the plate to the right and left, it has kept its consistency.
5- Use medium and low heat when making marmalade and jam. In this way, you can prevent it from overflowing and holding the bottom.

750 gr. how many cups
Hello there,
you said a piece of lemon salt, but when you say a piece, would you say the exact amount? I'm a bit of a novice in kitchen stuff. I have never used lemon salt either. For example, should lemon salt be a teaspoon or a teaspoon, how much? hi…
Lemon salts become crystalline, anyway, I used 1 large piece of lemon salt. If it is powder, you can use it with the tip of a teaspoon.
hello, is it okay if we put it in jars when it's hot, to use it longer?
Mrs. Saliha of course it can, but definitely keep it in the refrigerator or it may get moldy on it.
