What a beauty! The jam really does glow! Alena, it’s not entirely clear whether to make syrup from salted water or pour it out and use new water for syrup?
Alyona
Zhanna, thank you for your feedback. Fill the pear with salted water so that it does not darken while the syrup is cooked. Add very little salt: 1 tsp. per liter of water. Then we simply pour out this water. We prepare the syrup for pear jam from clean water.
Irina 07/02/13
Your pears are cut not into slices, but into long thin slices. The jam looks very unusual. I like.
Alyona
Irina, thank you for your feedback. I recommend this pear jam, it turns out not only beautiful, but also delicious)))
Maria 01/28/14
The pear in the picture is cut very beautifully, I’ll try to repeat it). In combination with orange, the jam turns out excellent; the pear itself is a bit bland. But here you need to try to choose harder varieties of pear if you want to achieve such beauty). Thanks for the recipe!
Natalya 07/14/14
Tell me, please, are oranges cut into jam with or without peel?
Alyona
Natalya, cut the orange together with the peel. First, scald a whole orange with boiling water to remove wax, which is often used for long-term storage fruits.
Oksana 07.29.14
Pear jam is my favorite, but I have never made it with orange. I saw this detail from you and tried it. Delicious! Surprisingly, pear and orange go together very well. Thanks for the science.
Tina 09.08.14
The jam turned out great! True, I am not such an aesthetic person as you, Alena, I cut the pears not into slices, but as necessary, but as it turned out, this did not affect the taste at all :))
Alyona
Tina, thank you for your review, I’m glad you liked the pear jam)))
Luda 09/05/14
The first time I made pear jam, I was very worried that the slices wouldn’t fall apart. Everything turned out OK! Thank you!
Dina 08/25/15
I was about to make jam according to your recipe. Tell me, should I cook for the first time for 5-7 minutes from the moment it boils or from the moment the pears are poured with syrup?
Alyona
Dina, all recipes indicate the time from the moment of boiling, that is, how long the jam should be cooked (boil over low heat).
Dina 08/25/15
Thanks for the answer. I thought so, but then I doubted it.
Alyona
Dina, you did the right thing by clarifying that.
Christina 08/27/15
I cooked it exactly according to the recipe, but with the addition of orange, after 30 minutes of boiling the syrup became completely liquid, I kept it for more than half an hour - as a result, the syrup remained liquid, like water, and the jam itself darkened to a brown color: (it’s a shame. Why could this happen?
Alyona
Christina, the orange could not radically affect the viscosity of the syrup and the thickness of the pear jam, so that is clearly not the reason. I make apple jam with orange, quince jam, and pure orange jam too. Another thing is that you added the orange to cold jam (room temperature), and when you started heating it, the syrup became more liquid, and this confused you. When heated, any syrup becomes more liquid, it will then thicken when it cools. You also need to take into account that the pear almost does not gel, so you cannot get something like this from it. thick jam like from apples.
As for color, what longer jam As it cooks, the darker it becomes as the sugar begins to caramelize. But it’s not scary; on the contrary, some people like it.
So don’t worry, roll up the jam, hide it on the shelves, and in winter see how tasty and aromatic it will be)))
Another important point: jam should be cooked in a wide container (bowl) so that the liquid evaporates faster. You cannot cover with a lid either during cooking or during infusion; the lid collects condensation, which will then fall back into the jam.
Christina 08/27/15
Oh, Alena!) Thank you very much for your answer!)) I hope the jam still tastes good)
Alyona
Christina, don’t even doubt that when they try, cook with love, it always turns out delicious)))
