I wanted to use this for a dinner dish, so I made jam without sugar!! It's quite sweet and tart.

The salt and the water are used to release the moisture from the apple, so you only need a little bit, but the amount of moisture released will depend on the size and condition of the apple, so add more water if necessary.

Steps

1

Peel the apple and cut into about 1 cm slices or cubes.
2

Depending on the brand of apple, the season, and if you want a smoother jam, chopping the fruit into smaller pieces will make it easier to cook and mash.
3

Also, soaking the cut apple in saltwater for 5-10 minutes will help soften it.
4

Place the apple, salt, and water into a pot. Cover with a lid and simmer on low heat.
5

Once the apples become transparent, lightly stir it as it simmers to prevent burning. If you want a smooth jam, mash the apples as you stir.
6

Once the liquid has evaporated, it's done. I used Jonathan Gold apples this time.
7

This is the version using Orin apples I mostly use either Orin or Jonathan Gol apples.

If you make a chunky jam and top with cinnamon sugar, it turns into a dessert. This was made with Jonathan apples! They're higher in acidity, but the jam came out delicious.
