Making preserves
Only use unblemished, fresh produce
which is in good condition.
Glass jars
Only use sterilised jars with twist-off lids
up to a maximum capacity of 250 ml.
After pouring in the fruit, clean the rim
of the jar with a clean cloth and hot
water.
Preparation
Sort fruit carefully, rinse it briefly but
thoroughly and allow it to drain. Take
great care when cleaning soft fruit as it
is very delicate and squashes easily.
Remove any stalks, cores or stones.
Purée the fruit as otherwise the
preserve will not set. Add jam sugar to
the fruit (according to packet
instructions) and stir well.
For sweet fruit and berries you should
also add some citric acid.
Procedure
Fill jars maximum 2/3 full.
Place the jars without their lids on in
a perforated container or on the rack.
At the end of the programme take the
jars out of the steam oven using oven
gloves. Leave them to stand for 1 - 2
minutes before sealing them with
twist off lids and then leave them to
cool.
