A few years ago, few even heard of such an exotic fruit as feijoa. Now this fruit is becoming increasingly popular due to its delicate aroma and taste, similar to pineapple with strawberries. And of course, inventive hostesses did not ignore feijoa jam, which turns out to be deliciously fragrant and reminds of the sun and summer.
Pick your recipe
Before proceeding directly to the prescription, you need to say a few words about the fruit itself. This is the only cultivated plant that accumulates a huge amount of organically soluble iodine compounds - one kilogram of fruit contains 100 mg of iodine. This allows you to use feijoa also for medicinal purposes. Well, of course, do not forget about vitamins, which also abound in the composition of fruits. Feijoa season is November, so do not miss the opportunity to stock up on these healthy and delicious fruits in the fall!
You will need:
- Feijoa fruits - 1 kg;
- distilled water (or boiled and settled for 2-3 hours) - 200 ml;
- medium lemon - 1 pc.;
- sugar - 800 g or 1 kg, at your discretion; the more sugar, the thicker and sweeter a treat will be.
The ingredients are designed to make two liters of jam.
