Fig Jam

Figs are in season, so I decided to make jam out of them!
Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking – you could decrease the amount if you want, but if you plan on keeping the jam for a long time be sure to use an amount of sugar that's over 50% of the weight of the figs. Recipe by uzukaji. (Yields two 170 g jars.)

Fig Jam Fig Jam
My family is separated into those who eat figs plain and those who like them as a jam, but only a few of us like them plain so they go bad fairly quickly. This is why I made them into a jam that can be stored.The amount of sugar will depend on the sweetness of the figs, so adjust as needed. Ripe figs are pretty sweet, so please add more lemon juice. In Step 4, be careful not to let it boil down too much. Recipe by Nu-shi. (Uses 1 pack of 5 small figs.) cookpad.japan -

A garden full of ripe, colorful plums—too many to let go to waste! So I decided to make a batch of jam to enjoy with toast for breakfast or as a sweet and tangy filling for pastries.

Every fall, my mother never fails to make this jam, so this time, I asked for the recipe.If you increase the amount of sugar by 30-40%, it will have a long shelf life.This recipe uses a reduced amount of sugar, so the jam should be consumed quickly. Recipe by suzu-ren cookpad.japan -
Raspberry Jam Raspberry Jam
I started growing raspberries and blackberries last year. This is the first jam I've ever made and I am addicted to its deliciousness.The fragrance and flavor is great if you use granulated sugar. I usually use lemon juice. I used citric acid once because I read in a book that it really brings out the savory flavor of the fruit, but I couldn't really tell any difference. (Apparently you can substitute lemon juice for kiwi or fig) You should use a pot that can withstand acidity, such as an enameled or stainless steel pot (thought enameled is best). This is quite sweet and sour, so if you want a sweeter jam, taste it in Step 4 and adjust the amount of sugar. Recipe by Genpokin cookpad.japan -
Simple Apple Jam Simple Apple Jam
I bought some Starking apples, but they didn't go over well with my family, so tried making some jam. I think they're delicious either way.I made this with 30% as much sugar as apple. If you want to store it for a long time, I think it's better to use a larger amount of sugar, like about 50%. Recipe by ankobby cookpad.japan
