HOMEMADE MANGO JAM RECIPE



Homemade Mango Jam Recipe image

If your mangoes have strings, cook with the seed core as shown in the pictures. If your mango doesn't have many strings, cut the flesh from the seed and cook as shown in the video.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 3

7 medium-sized Mangoes (with seed core, fresh)
600 grams Sugar
2 Lime or lemon (optional)

Steps:

  • Start by peeling your mangoes and discard the peel. Cut the fruit flesh from the mangoes if you are using regular commercial mango varieties. If your mango variety has fibers and strings, don't cut the flesh off but rather leave it on the seed core. The fruit flesh will fall off the fibers and the seed core during the cooking process. *see Notes
  • Pour all the sugar over the mangoes and mix everything well.
  • This step is optional. Wash your lemon/lime and cut into half. Press out the juice and pour over the mangoes. Throw the 2 squeezed out lemon halves into the pot with the mangoes. Lemon skin adds natural pectin to the jam making and it helps to set the jam.
  • Heat up your pot on low heat and stir the fruits. Cook on low heat for about 30 minutes or until you see the rolling boil happening.
  • Reduce heat and cook until jam is set. Use a thermometer in doubt: The setting temperature is 105 Celsius/220 Fahrenheit. You can also test if the jam is set by using a frozen plate or spoon and by dropping some of the hot cooked jam on the frozen part. That will cool the drop of jam instantly and you will be able to see if the jam has set or not. If the jam is still running, cook it a bit more and repeat the test until the jam has set. Always keep an eye on the cooking jam as to not burn the jam.
  • Pick out and discard the lime/lemon halves and if you used fibrous mangoes, then the seed core as well. *see notes
  • Grab a sterilized Jar and fill it up with the jam up to the rim.
  • Seal the jars and turn it upside down before you store the mango jam jars in a cool and dry place. Keeping the jam jars upside down creates a vacuum and helps in preserving the jam all the longer.
  • Make sure to label your jam with jam name, date and best before date. The jam will be good for about 10 months if unopened. Store in the fridge once opened.

MANGO PRESERVE



Mango Preserve image

This recipe is a sweet preserve. I used to make it for my M.I.L. for Christmas, as it incorporated her 2 favourite flavours, mango and ginger! She loved it and devoured it every year! She was not a fan of the chilli, so I used to tie a vanilla pod and a few whole cloves in muslin instead..... which was removed before bottling of course! This made for more of a sweeter preserve for her. You could also use star anise of cracked cardamom pods in a tied muslin bag as something different. This makes about 4 jars...... but will depend on the size jars you use. N.B. You will need approx 900gr (2 lb) mangoes for this recipe (4 mangoes)

MANGO-PEACH PRESERVES



Mango-Peach Preserves image

This was adapted from Peach Preserves (on this site, thank you Kevin!). I changed some of the amounts and ingredients. Full of flavor, and you leave the peach skin on so it's a cinch to make! There are chunks of fruit, so if you want a smoother texture, add a couple more peaches before cooking and strain with a mesh strainer before adding sugar. As with all preserves, a little time consuming, but worth every minute...

Categories     Side Dish     Sauces and Condiments Recipes     Canning and Preserving Recipes     Jams and Jellies Recipes

Time 1h

Yield 56

Number Of Ingredients 4

7 ripe unpeeled peaches, pitted and coarsely chopped
3 cups chopped fresh mango
2 ¾ cups white sugar
1 (1.75 ounce) package powdered fruit pectin

Steps:

  • Place 1/2 the peaches in a large saucepan and crush until mostly mashed. Add the remaining peaches and mangos. Bring to a boil over medium-low heat. Cook until mostly liquid, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Pour peach-mango mixture into a bowl and measure 5 1/4 cups back into the pan. For a thicker mixture, use only 5 cups. Add sugar to the pan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Gradually stir in pectin and bring back to a boil. Boil for 1 minute; immediately remove from heat.
  • Pour preserves into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large canning pot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 5 minutes.
