Rose hip jam: delicious and healthy recipes. Rosehip jam (five minutes) How to make rosehip jam

Rosehip is a widespread shrub. All parts of it are considered useful: greens, flowers, fruits, roots and twigs. Most often, rose hips are used in cooking and for medicinal purposes. Flowers are less popular. This is due to the fact that it is necessary to collect pink inflorescences during their active flowering period, which occurs for a fairly short time. Simply delicious jam is prepared from fragrant rosehip petals. You can buy it in stores, but the price for this delicacy is very high. To give you the opportunity to enjoy an unusual dessert, we have collected detailed information for you about the rules for collecting and processing delicate rosehip petals, as well as all the ways to make jam from them at home.

Rose hips can grow both in urban areas and in forest areas. The thorny bush forms thickets, choosing sunny glades for itself. It is best to collect flowers away from roads and industrial enterprises.

Raw materials are collected during active flowering of the bush. This period falls on the month of June. It is important that the buds are fully bloomed. Collection time is morning, immediately after the dew has disappeared. At this time, the petals acquire their brightest aroma. It should be noted that the most fragrant inflorescences are bright pink. From all the abundance of flowers, you should choose juicy buds without signs of wilting.

After collection, the petals are torn off from the inflorescences. To remove a layer of dust and pollen, the pink mass is rinsed with cool water and shaken, freeing it from excess moisture.

Options for making jam from rose hips

From whole petals

100 grams of collected petals are placed in a sieve and immersed in boiling water for 5 minutes. Take 750 milliliters of water. After blanching, the sieve with rose hips is immersed in ice water, stopping the heat treatment process.

After boiling the flowers, the water is not drained; sugar syrup is prepared with it. To do this, add 900 grams of white sugar to the broth. The syrup will take the desired consistency within 5-7 minutes.

Cooled and slightly dried petals are dipped into boiling syrup. The mass is brought to a boil and heated for 10 minutes. A minute before turning off the heat, add 2 grams of citric acid to the jam. To make the grains of powder disperse faster, it is diluted in a small amount of water. A tablespoon will be enough.

Cover the finished jam with a clean cloth and let it brew for 3-4 hours. The cooled mass is laid out in sterile jars and tightly sealed with boiled lids.

From petals ground with sugar

100 grams of raw materials are ground with the same amount of granulated sugar until a homogeneous mass is obtained.

At the same time, sugar syrup is prepared over the fire from half a kilo of sugar and one two-hundred-gram glass of water.

The gruel is added to the slightly thickened syrup and cooked for 10 minutes until tender. In order for the jam to infuse thoroughly, it is allowed to rest at room temperature for a couple of hours, and then packaged in containers that have been sterilized in advance.

With lemon juice

A pound of sugar is ground with 200 grams of rosehip petals and allowed to stand for half an hour.

At this time, prepare the products necessary for cooking the sugar syrup: 3 glasses of clean water and 1 kilogram of sugar. The products are combined and boiled over medium heat for 5 minutes.

The ground petals are placed in boiling liquid. The jam is brought to readiness within a quarter of an hour.

At the final stage, pour the juice of half a medium-sized lemon into the dessert. Boil the mixture for another 1 minute and turn off the heat.

Petal jam without cooking

This “raw” product is considered the most useful. To prepare it, take petals and sugar in a 2:1 ratio. Grind the ingredients by hand or with a mortar until smooth. The mass is laid out in clean jars and left at room temperature for 5-6 hours. During this time, the sugar crystals will completely disperse.

After this, the jam is sent to the refrigerator for storage.

Choose berries that are not overripe, otherwise when peeling it will turn out that you have nothing to make jam from at all. After you clean the rosehip, rinse it in several waters to thoroughly wash off all the seeds, then pour boiling water over it, boil for a couple of minutes, drain in a colander and rinse with cold water - this procedure is necessary so that the skin of the berries becomes soft. If the berries are immediately dipped into sugar syrup, they will harden.

How to make jam and rosehip jam

Since rose hips contain a lot of vitamin C, it should be consumed often in any form. It can be vitamin tea or syrup, jam or marmalade. It makes jam and marmalade very tasty, and compote is no less tasty. To prepare preparations from this priceless fruit, you will have to work a little. But the final product will cost a lot and you will not regret spending your time and labor at all.

This jam is made from large, selected and not overripe rose hips. If a dense berry can be cut in half well and the seeds can be removed from it quite easily, then this will not work with a soft berry. In an overripe rosehip, almost all the pulp disappears somewhere, and all that remains in your hands is a tough skin with a bunch of seeds inside, so there is nothing left to make jam from.
