Best 7 Apricotmango Jam Recipes

APRICOT MANGO JAM

Steps:

• Clean the apricots, by cutting them in half and removing the stone. if the apricots are very large cut them again into manageable pieces
• Clean the mango and cut the flesh from the stone. I still struggle with cleaning a mango properly but I always do it above a bowl so I catch any of the juices flowing out. At least that way it won't go to waste!
• Put both the apricot halves and the mango pieces into a wide saucepan. Add the preservering (or jam making sugar) to it and stir everything together. Add the juice of the lemon and put the saucepan on a low heat.
• Bring to the boil and leave to simmer for about 15 minutes. You might want to check the consistency of the jam before you're done by putting a little on a cold plate. If you run your finger through it, it should not come together again easily and thicken. You know a jam consistency when you see it I would think.
• Once it is thick enough, remove from the heat and leave to cool completely.
• This jam is delicious on home made bread with some nice butter or it can be used in desserts too!

APRICOT JAM

Steps:

• Toss the apricots, sugar, lemon zest and juice and vanilla in a large saucepan to combine, then mash slightly to release some of the apricot juice. Set aside for 10 minutes to allow the apricots to macerate and the sugar to dissolve. Meanwhile, place a small plate in the freezer to chill; this will be used to test the doneness of the jam.
• Place the saucepan over medium-high heat. (See Cook's Note for suggested add-in.) Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to medium, stirring frequently. Continue to cook until the jam becomes thick and syrupy, about 35 minutes. To test doneness, place a small amount of the jam onto the chilled plate and freeze for 2 minutes. Drag your finger or a spoon through the jam. If it holds its shape and thickness, the jam is done; remove from the heat. If it's runny, continue to cook and test again in 5-minute increments. Once the jam has reached the right consistency, transfer to jars and cool completely before storing, tightly covered. The jam will keep in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.

MANGO JAM

Steps:

• Boil, steam, or microwave the whole mangoes until soft. Cool, then remove the peel and inner seed; place the mango pulp in a large bowl. Use a fork or potato masher to mash the pulp well.
• Place the sugar and water in a large saucepan over low heat, stir mixture, and bring to a boil. When mixture begins boiling, increase heat to medium-high. Continue boiling until fine, soft threads form, 270 degrees F (135 degrees C). Stir in the mango pulp, add the saffron threads, if desired, and boil until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
• Pour cooked jam into sterilized jars and seal according to canning directions.

CERTO MANGO JAM

Stir in pectin. Return to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 min., stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon.
• Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with two-piece lids. Screw bands tightly. Place jars on elevated rack in canner. Lower rack into canner. (Water must cover jars by 1 to 2 inches. Add boiling water, if necessary.) Cover; bring water to gentle boil. Process 10 min. Remove jars and place upright on towel to cool completely. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middles of lids with finger. (If lids spring back, lids are not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.)

APRICOT/MANGO JAM RECIPE - (5/5)

Steps:

• In a large dry bowl, mix the apricots and the sugar. Cover and let it stay overnight in a cool place, stirring once or twice. Next day check for tartness if it is too tart you may add more sugar to sweeten it, add the mango pulp, stir once and let it stay for another 1 to 2 hours. Pour the mixture in a food processor bowl and process until you get a smooth pulp. Pour the mixture in a fine mesh sieve and with the help of a spatula press through the mixture through the sieve into a large dry cooking pot. Place the pot on the medium-low flame and let it come to a boil stirring once every 5 to 10 minutes. After it starts to boil, add the citric acid and check for tartness, if it is still too tart for your taste, you may add more sugar. Set the flame to low and let it simmer on low stirring every 10 minutes for at least 2 ½ to 3 hours until the mixture is thickened to a very thick jam consistency. Pour in clean dry mason jars and seal while it is still hot so it vacuum seals the jars. This can keep up to a year in a cool dry place.
