3, 4, 5. Puree, jam and marmalade
Puree from apples is a delicate airy product, which is one of the first in life given to an infant and which, until old age, will be present in the diet of almost every person.The puree is quick and easy to make.
Applesauce
- apples - 2 kg;
- sugar - 150-200 g.
- Pour the peeled and core apples with water so that the tops of the apples are not covered. Bring to a boil and cook for 5-8 minutes. (depending on the variety of apples, the early ones boil faster).
- As soon as the apples are boiled, put them in a colander and let the water drain.
- Add sugar to the remaining pulp and cook for 5 minutes, stirring. The density of the puree can be adjusted using apple broth, which is drained from apples.
- Place hot in sterilized jars and roll up. Invert onto lids and wrap until cool. From 2 kg of apples, almost three 0.5 l jars of puree are obtained.
And here's how you can make sugar-free puree:.
If you continue to boil applesauce, it will thicken and turn into another product - jam. As a rule, in relation to the initial volume of mashed potatoes, the finished jam will be almost half the volume. Properly cooked jam is perfectly stored without any sealing; for this, sugar in it should be at least 60-65%.
For cooking you will need:
- apples - 1 kg (weight for already peeled apples);
- sugar - 500 -700 g.
- Add sugar to the mass rubbed through a sieve (or in a blender) and boil, stirring, over medium heat for 15 minutes. up to an hour, depending on the density that is needed.
- Put hot jam in prepared and heated jars and roll up. Invert onto lids to cool and wrap.
For jam, apples can be boiled (as for mashed potatoes) and baked in the oven.
Marmalade
! The more sugar, the thicker the marmalade!Apple marmalade
The principle of preparation is the same as for jam. But for marmalade, it is recommended to put a bag with peel and apple “cores” with seeds into the water where apples are boiled - it is they that have the most pectin, which will help marmalade harden. After cooking, the bag is removed, and the apples are rubbed and, after adding sugar, boiled down to the desired density.
Marmalade can be soft and dense. To get sheet marmalade, it is transferred to flat forms and either left in the air to dry, or dried in an oven at a temperature of 50ºС for 1-1.5 hours.
6 and 7. Jam and jam

Given the huge number of varieties of apples, it in itself already turns out different every time, and if we take into account the imagination of our hostesses, it is clear that in winter there will be something to gasp at!We offer an original recipe for apple jam, where apple additives are very non-standard.

It is believed that sour varieties of apples are the most suitable for this purpose, as they are more juicy.Of course, it is better to consume natural apples fresh, but if there is no cellar where you can store them until spring, various delicious apple preparations for the winter come to the aid of housewives. I dedicate this collection of recipes to all the sweet tooth, because most of the presented recipes contain sugar.
Jam, jam, mashed potatoes, ketchup, compote ... and this is not all that can be made from apples.
For preparations, it is best to use summer (White pouring, Antonovka, Glory to the winner), or autumn varieties of apples (Makintosh, Spartak, Pepinka), which are fully ripe and have absorbed all the summer sun.
But if you can’t buy these, nothing bad will happen and the preparations from winter varieties of apples will also turn out delicious.

The fact is that this berry contains quite a lot of vitamins and minerals necessary for us.
But there is one thing!
Not everyone will eat chokeberry in its pure form.
To mask the tart taste of these berries, they are often mixed with something else.
For example, plum is well suited for this.
Or, in combination with chokeberry, you can make jam from pears or apples.
To make jam, apples and chokeberry are taken one by one.
And sugar is added to taste and based on the sweetness of the fruit.
If you add cinnamon, lemon zest and lemon balm to any apple jam, then you really will lick your fingers!
And for some reason, all grandmothers (and grandmothers already know a lot about jam!) Prepare this dessert in enameled saucepans, and stir with wooden spoons.

There are a huge number of varieties of apples in the world, but one of the most beloved is, of course, Antonovka. Their delicate and delicate aroma cannot be confused with anything else. The main advantage of these apples is the preservation of all tastes and smells with various types of preparations. That is why housewives are so fond of preparing compotes from them for the winter, fermenting them and, of course, making jam. We have selected for you a lot of simple and very tasty recipes for winter preparations from Antonovka.
canned apples
For this blank, we need glass containers with a volume of 3 liters. They must be thoroughly washed and sterilized. After that, you can start preparing raw materials. We sort the apples, wash them. Qualitatively remove the core, and then cut into equal slices.
We transfer the resulting pieces into jars up to the very neck, after which we prepare a sweet syrup. One jar will require a glass of granulated sugar and 1.5 water. Pour hot syrup over apples. As soon as the containers have cooled, they must be boiled, and then sealed. Turn upside down. Cover with a thick cloth or blanket and let stand for a day. After that, we transfer to the basement or other cool place for storage.
Jam slices from Antonovka
Antonovka jam is no less tasty.
In order to prepare it, you need to take the following ingredients:
- apples - 1 kg;
- granulated sugar - 1 kg;
- purified water - 1 l;
- salt - a couple of large spoons.
Cooking:
We wash the apples. We take off the skin. Thanks to this, the jam will turn out more tender. Also be sure to cut out the core. After that, cut the fruit into small slices. The fruits prepared in this way are placed in salt water for half an hour. This technique will help preserve the beautiful color of the fruit. Thanks to this pre-treatment, the apples will not darken. After such a manipulation, the apples should be thoroughly washed under running water.
Then you need to take a container in which the dessert will be cooked. Fruits are spread evenly in layers. Each of them is sprinkled with sugar. The mass is left to infuse until the fruits produce juice. Once this has happened, you can put the apples on the fire. As soon as the dessert boils, it must be turned off and left to infuse for 6 hours, after which the manipulations are repeated 3 more times. After that, the jam is ready and it can be closed for the winter.
