How to make pear jam with lemon

We wash the pears in a large container to remove all dust and dirt from their surface.

We cut good pears into slices, do not remove the peel. She won't bother us. Pour sliced ​​pears and sugar into a bowl.

Shake the bowl so that the sugar evenly covers the pear pieces. Leave this fruity-sugar splendor for 4 hours.

Place a basin on the fire and cook until the first bubbles appear, indicating the mixture is boiling. Set our jam aside for 8 hours.

Add diced lemons with peel.

Again we repeat heating to the brink of boiling. Again, set this lemon-pear mixture aside.

We carry out 4 such cycles of bringing to a boil.

For the fifth time we need to boil the jam. Boil it and cook for at least 15 minutes.

Place the jam in sterile jars.

It is very convenient to place the slices with a wooden spatula. It must also be processed so as not to become a source of microbial contamination of the cans.

Let's roll up our clear pear and lemon jam.

We place rows of cans on a towel, wrap them in a blanket or something else warm.

They should be wrapped up to cool down. After which, we simply move our bright pear jam to the cellar.

In winter, you can simply drink this delicacy with tea for pleasure, or you can eat it with pancakes or bake sweet pies. The choice is wide, for everyone! 🙂
