Pomegranate jam is quite useful considering that it contains 15 amino acids, which no other fruit can boast of. Most often, we are accustomed to eating pomegranates in the freshest form and pomegranate juice is very popular, but sometimes they make jam from them. And believe me, that it did not become less useful because of this.
Before you start making jam, you need to choose the right pomegranate. If you take them in your hand and hold them a little, they should seem heavy to you. If they seemed to you quite light, then, and most likely they have deteriorated a little due to improper storage and transportation.
Always inspect the grenade carefully. The peel of a ripe fruit should have a pinkish color without all sorts of spots, and also differ in density, hardness and dryness. If the peel is perfectly even and smooth, then most likely the fruit is not yet fully ripe. If there are various damages or stains on the peel, then it is better not to buy this fruit.
Of course, many will say, why should they cook pomegranate jam? Firstly, pomegranates do not grow in our country, and secondly, they are sold all year round, and that it is better to eat them fresh. Everything is so, but the advantages of jam are as follows, firstly, it is a very tasty and healthy delicacy that is stored for a long time, unlike fresh fruit, and secondly, there is a period in the year when pomegranates are very cheap, and there is also vice versa, when they the price is simply cosmic.
The thing is that these fruits have different terms maturing in different countries... And the farther the country from which the fruits were brought, the more expensive their cost. As a rule, this is the winter season. So, jam can greatly save the family budget. We buy fruits at the lowest price of the year and make delicious preserves for the winter.
Wash the pomegranate and chop up all the fruit. Take out all the seeds and remove them from the films. Now you still need freshly squeezed pomegranate juice. Of course, you can squeeze it out on your own, but you can also use a purchased one, of course, we look at the shelf life and naturalness of the product. If you squeeze the juice yourself for pomegranate jam at home, then use a juicer better, and then strain the resulting juice through a strainer and cheesecloth. This will help you to cleanse the juice well from the seeds that have made their way there, which will not be needed in the preparation of the jam.
Pour half a liter of juice into an enamel bowl (aluminum dishes can oxidize from pomegranate juice) and add 0.75kg of sugar there. Stir the juice until the sugar is completely dissolved, then put on a medium flame and after it boils, then reduce the flame to a minimum. Stir until the syrup is evenly thick, which can usually take about 20-30 minutes.
Add 1.5 cups of peeled and chopped walnuts to the resulting syrup, then a glass of pomegranate seeds and a small pinch of vanilla sugar. This will give your creation a unique taste. Stir the resulting jam and pour it into pre-sterilized jars. But if you are not going to preserve this pomegranate jam, then just cool it down before using.
An important point, the dishes should also be open when cooling. After this wonderful product has completely cooled down, you can enjoy it to the fullest by yourself and treat your relatives. It can be used as a simple jam, and as a filler for various baked goods. The impregnation for cake and pomegranate jam cakes will be very tasty. Bon Appetit!

- half a pomegranate,
- 1 cup of sugar.

Put them in a bucket.
Slice the grapefruit. If you are too critical of its bitterness, then peel the entire rind completely. Slice the fruit.
Lay it out to the grenade.
Add sugar.
Boil the pomegranate jam for 15 minutes, then transfer it to a jar, which you can tighten with a lid.
The pomegranate jam is ready! Help yourself!
Have you tried
Let's start with grapefruit. Peel off the zest carefully, being careful not to touch the white part. Cut it into thin strips like in the photo. For the jam, we only need one cup, the rest can be used in other recipes. Combine it with water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce it to minimum and cook, covered, for about 15-20 minutes. Set aside.
Remove the pulp from the leftover grapefruit and chop it finely. Take care to remove any remaining membranes and bones. In the recipe, we only use three cups of pulp along with juices. If you do more, you can make a delicious salad.
.">In a large saucepan, combine grapefruit pulp, cooked zest (right with water), and pomegranate juice. Bring to a simmer over high heat, then reduce and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Sift the pectin into the jam and stir until it dissolves. Increase heat and bring mixture to a steady boil, stirring constantly. Add sugar and stir until completely dissolved. Boil for a minute and remove from heat. Remove any foam that has formed.
Stir our jam for 5 to 8 minutes. This is to prevent the grapefruit peel from floating. Pour it into pre-sterilized jars, not reaching about 6-7 millimeters to the top, cover with lids. Pasteurize the finished jam in boiling water for 10 minutes and then roll up immediately.
Then place the jars on a towel, lids down, and refrigerate completely at room temperature. It is better to eat such jam after it has stood for at least a week. If any jars are not tightly closed, you need to put them in the refrigerator and store there for up to three weeks. The recipe is adapted from the English-language blog Simple bites.
