Description: Dried Apricot Jam If you have enjoyed this podcast please consider buying us a cup of coffee: http://ko-fi.com/kitchennewbie When you need apricot jam, like in December when you use it as a glue for cakes and stuff, apricots are out of season, but you can make your own with the dried variety. You will need 1 Kg dried apricots Boiling water Juice of 2 lemons 2 Kg sugar Put the apricots in a bowl and cover with boiling water to 1 cm above the fruit Leave for 4 hours Pour the fruit and liquid into a large pan with the lemon juice and bring to the boil Simmer for 110 to 15 minutes to soften the fruit Remove from the heat and stir in the sugar, stirring under a low heat until all the sugar is dissolved Bring to the boil with high heat and stir, this can take 5 t0 6 minutes Test for a setting point, drip some jam on a cold saucer and push it. If it wrinkles and stays wrinkled, it is ready - if not return to the heat for two more minutes When a setting point is reached, take off the heat and leave to stand for 5 minutes Stir the jam and ladle into sterile jars using a jam funnel and seal straight away When cool, label with the type of jam and the date it was made
