PRESERVING

1. DO NOT use a pan that overlaps the perimeter of

the hob trim.

2. To allow for a full rolling boil, the pan should be no

more than one third full when all the ingredients

have been added. It is better to use two pans rather

than overfill one, or use half quantities.

3. Use firm fruit or vegetables and wash well before

using.

4. Preserving sugar gives clear jam, however

granulated sugar is cheaper and gives equally good

flavour.

5. Crystallization may be caused if sugar is not

completely dissolved before bringing jam to the boil.

Over boiling will affect the flavour, setting properties

and colour of the jam.

6. To test jam for setting:

If a jam thermometer is available, boil jam to 104°C.

Marmalade should be boiled to 106°C.

If a thermometer is not available, remove pan from

heat, place sample of jam on a cold dish and cool

quickly (i.e. in a freezer or frozen food storage

compartment of a refrigerator). When cold, it will

crinkle and hold the mark of a finger run through it,

if it is at setting point.

7. The scum should be removed as soon as possible

from the surface of the preserve after setting point

has been reached. Marmalade should be allowed to

cool before potting to prevent the peel rising.
