Seedless cherry jam with syrup. How to cook pitted cherry jam in syrup

Sweet, fragrant and tasty cherry jam can only be obtained when sweet ripe cherries are used. In order to make jam, you need to use cherries that have just been picked. Naturally, it is difficult to keep track of this if you buy berries in the market. After all, no one knows when the cherry was plucked. Therefore, you need to agree in advance with the seller about the purchase and ask for fresh berries. Do not take cherries in the supermarket. From such a berry, jam will turn out tasteless.

There are many recipes for making pitted cherry jam. And surely every hostess knows them. Below I will tell you a couple of interesting and tasty jam recipes and how much to cook pitted cherry jam.

Pitted cherry jam "five minutes" - recipe

In this recipe, the name does not speak for itself. If many people thought that the process would take only 5 minutes, then this is not so. Much more time will be needed. But we will cook for exactly 5 minutes. It is necessary to bring the mass to a boil and cook it 3 times for 5 minutes.

For cooking you will need:

  1. 3 kg of sugar;
  2. 3 kg sweet ripe cherries.

The process is as follows:

While the cherry mass is infused, prepare jars (you can use 0.5 and 1 l.). The jam prepared according to this recipe is very tasty, so it will not stand in the refrigerator in winter. Sterilize the jars and wash the lids well with boiling water.

After jam cooled down in 30 minutes, put it back on the fire and boil for another 5 minutes. After that, remove it from the heat and wait another half an hour. Bring to a boil again and cook over low heat for 5-7 minutes. Pour jam into jars and seal. Turn the lids down and wrap the jars in a blanket and let them cool.

The other day I already shared with you a recipe for cherry jam for the winter, which we prepared with a bone. Today I offer another version of this amazing berry delicacy - we will prepare pitted cherry jam. It turns out just as tasty, fragrant and beautiful. By the way, due to the absence of these very seeds, such cherry jam will become not only a wonderful dessert, but also a filling for excellent homemade pastries.

The color of the finished jam will be fantastically saturated, and its taste will be simply magical. So that the berries do not fall apart during the cooking process and remain intact in the finished cherry jam, we will heat the raw products in three steps and for a very short time. By the way, it is precisely due to this procedure that this cherry jam is also called a five-minute (berries are boiled in syrup for no more than 5 minutes).

Despite the fact that the preparation of cherry jam will take 2 days, our work itself is actually minimal. The most laborious thing is to remove the seeds from the berries, but most of the time the cherry is infused and soaked in syrup, and we just wait, minding our own business. But as a result, you will get about 1.2 liters of amazing homemade cherry jam, in which whole sweet berries are bathed in a fairly thick and rich berry syrup.

Ingredients:

Cooking step by step with photos:


To make homemade cherry jam for the winter, we need fresh ripe cherries and granulated sugar. In general, we need 1 kg of sugar for 1 kg of berries, but we will prepare seedless cherry jam, so I give a mass of 200 grams more (taking into account the weight of the removed seeds).


Wash the cherries and let the water drain. After that, we take out the bones in any way - I use such an ancient device, but you can use a pin, hairpin, teaspoon or just your fingers.


As a result, from 1.2 kilograms of fresh cherries, I get exactly 1 kilogram of pitted berries. We immediately put the cherries in a bulk dish in which you will cook the jam. It should be large so that it is more convenient to shake the berries.



In this state, cherries with sugar should be left at room temperature for several hours, during which it is important not to interfere, but to slightly shake the contents. Thus, the berries will not be crushed, and the sugar will disperse faster. If you have the desire and time, you can cover the berries with sugar in the evening and leave them until the morning.


When most of the sugar has dissolved and turned into syrup, put the dishes on a quiet fire and let the granulated sugar with cherry juice completely turn into syrup. You can cover the bowl (pan) with a lid for this time. It is advisable not to interfere with the berries and sugar with a spoon, but only slightly shake the dishes from side to side. This is necessary so that the cherry retains its integrity.


Bring the contents of the bowl to a boil and simmer over low-medium heat for about 5 minutes. Don't forget to take off the foam. After 5 minutes of boiling, turn off the heat and allow the pitted cherry jam to cool COMPLETELY at room temperature. There is absolutely no need to rush, so you can leave the delicacy to rest for at least 5, at least for 12 hours.


During this time, the cherry will give even more juice, and the berries will thicken, due to which they will keep their shape. Then heat the jam a second time and cook again for 5 minutes. Let cool completely.


Bring everything to a boil and cook the cherry jam for the last 5 minutes, not forgetting to remove the foam. That is, cook the jam in three steps for 5 minutes. Fragrant and rich jam with whole berries is ready, it remains only to close it for the winter.


Pour the still boiling cherry jam into pre-prepared jars, not reaching the edge of about 1-1.5 centimeters. Each hostess has her own favorite method, and I do it in the microwave - I wash the jars in a soda solution, rinse and pour about 100 ml of cold water into each. I steam in the microwave at the highest power for 5 minutes each. If you sterilize, for example, 3 jars at once, 7-9 minutes will suffice. I boil the lids on the stove for five minutes too.


What could be easier to cook seedless cherry jam for the winter - take the recipes and prepare them. However, even here there are subtleties. There are three pluses, because of which the housewives go to extra trouble: without a middle, the dessert is stored for a long time, and it is more convenient to eat it - you don’t have to spit. Due to the absence of a bone, jam is perfect for making homemade cakes.

The taste of cherry jam is good on its own, as a rule, no additives are required. But over the years of winter preparations, you willy-nilly get acquainted with various unusual recipes. Hold on and don't try. Therefore, my piggy bank is constantly updated with new options.

How can you diversify the taste of the workpiece and make it unusual? Put cinnamon, lemon, honey. Personally, I like to add nuts and chocolate, especially in thick ones with gelatin.

You can leave it for 2-3 hours, the main thing here is that the cherry has time to release the juice in which it will cook - after all, five minutes is cooked without water. I usually let the berries sit overnight.
  2. In the morning, put a basin with cherries to boil and bring to a boil.
  3. When the jam boils, put citric acid, cook for exactly 5 minutes and remove from heat.
  4. While the delicacy is “gurgling”, prepare the jars for rolling: pour over with boiling water, sterilize in some other way, do the same with the lids. Pour the jam hot and roll up.
