Cleansing and Cutting

• Bring apricots to your garden or buy from the market. If natural, it would be better. Cleanse the fruits one by one properly. Remove all specks of dirt and pesticides from them.
• Cut them in the dice method and remove the seeds. Bring all in a medium bowl.

Apply Sterilization Method

• We should complete the sterilization process now so that after the jam is ready, we pour instantly. To do this, take a big bowl and add the jars and lids into it. Add water full of it, the jars and lids should be drowning in the water. Put a lid on it. Boil them in high heat within 5-7 minutes. Bring back the jars and lids with the help of a tong or pincer. Leave the jars and lids upside down so the excess water will be shedding.

Cook the Fruit

• Now, place a bowl in the oven, heat should be medium. Add all prepared fruit. After 30 seconds, add lemon juice and sugar. 
• Stir continuously, it prevents scorching. 
• After 5-8 minutes of stirring, rare foams appear beyond the mixture. Remove the foam over the jam with a ladle.
• Then, also cook it for another 2 minutes.

Blending the Mixture

• Take a blender, add all the ingredients to it and blend in the mixer.

Add Sure Jell Pectin

• Now, place the mixture in the oven and boil lightly. In a small bowl, add a little water and the sure jell pectin. Pour it into the main mixture and stir. Add the butter and cook for around 5 minutes. Cheek the consistency to take a small amount of jam on a cold plate. If the consistency is right according to you, turn off the stove. Your jam is perfectly ready.

Prepare the Jars

• Add the mixture to the jars one by one and tighten with the lids. 

[You can repeat the sterilization process here as mentioned above, so that the method will be perfectly done.]

Things Need to Remember

• It will be better to take fresh, under-ripe (not overripe) fruit to make a jam or jelly.
• If needed, remove the peels from the fruit.
• Sterilizing the jars is an important part of remembering.
• Understanding the temperature control is crucial. The target temperature range of jams is 217-222°F (103-106°C).
• Foam management is also a vital point to get a smooth jam.
• Add as enough as sugar and pectin to ensure the right thickness of the jam.
• If want extra flavour, add spices like cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, allspice, basil, mint, thyme or rosemary. There are several options to enhance the savoury flavour in your jam.
• Follow the canning guidelines to preserve your jam as long as possible.
