Cranberry Jam
Overview
A good companion for breakfast, I believe every family will have several bottles of jam with different flavors to eat in different ways. Don’t buy jam anymore. Nowadays, all kinds of fresh fruits are available on the market all year round. When they are good and cheap, buy more and make your own jam. The biggest advantage is that it does not contain any additives. It does not contain any chemical additives such as pigments, preservatives, and coloring agents. It has a pure taste, genuine products at a reasonable price, and is safe and healthy for children to eat. Moreover, it is simple to make and you can know it at a glance. It is sweet and sour, appetizing and strengthening the spleen.

Ingredients
Steps
-
Rinse the frozen fresh cranberries with clean water and defrost them at room temperature. After thawing, soup will come out. Do not throw them away. Pour them directly into the pot and cook them for the original flavor.
-
Prepare rock sugar. If you don’t have rock sugar, you can replace it with white granulated sugar or white sugar.
-
Add a little purified water to the soup pot, add cranberries and soup, bring to a boil over high heat, and simmer over low heat until the cranberries soften and break into pieces when touched. If you like a more delicate texture, you can grind it in a food processor and then boil it. I like it cooked directly and has the texture of pulp.
-
Add rock sugar and continue to simmer over low heat. At this time, you need to stir constantly with a spatula to prevent sticking to the pot.
-
Determine the thickness of the jam based on your personal preference for particle size and texture. If you make a lot at one time and need to store it for a long time, you can add lemon juice to keep it fresh. I made less today and ate it in one or two meals. You can skip the lemon and reduce one step to keep the original flavor of the cranberries.
-
After all the water has evaporated, turn off the heat and store the cranberry jam in an oil-free and water-free sealed glass jar without adding lemon. Try to finish it within a week.
