Features of making pear jam with milk for the winter
It is necessary to observe the jam preparation time, which affects the result. It is equally important to use products in the quantities in which they are indicated in the recipe. A dessert made from pears with milk can become sugary. This usually happens when it is not fully cooked or, on the contrary, overcooked. To obtain a quality product, it is important to properly prepare all components.
List of ingredients
Depending on the recipe, the list of products and their quantities vary.
But there is a classic option consisting of:
- pears – 5 kg;
- sugar – 3 kg;
- milk – 3 l;
- soda – 1 tsp.
This ratio of products allows you to create delicious jam.
If prepared and stored correctly, the dessert can be preserved until next season.
Rules for selecting and preparing products
For jam you need ripe, sweet fruits. Their size can be medium and large. It is important that the pears are not green, without aroma.
Soft, overripe fruits will be boiled during the cooking period. They are best used for marmalade and jam.
If you choose processed small pears, the dessert will not be of such quality. Many recipes call for adding whole fruits. And rotten and diseased ones spoil the taste of the product. The core, tail, and seeds are removed from selected fruits. Then they are cut into slices.
How to properly prepare containers for the start of the process
It is necessary to prepare the jars. 0.5 and 1 liter containers are perfect for jam. A careful inspection of the container should be carried out. There should be no cracks, chips or damage on it.
Then the cans are cleaned. It is advisable to wash them with hot water and soda. This will eliminate the smell. Dish detergent is also suitable. Then the jars must be rinsed well.
If the containers are small, then it is more convenient to sterilize them in the microwave. This is the simplest processing method. A small amount of water is poured into the jars - up to 2 cm. Then they are placed in a microwave with a power of 700-800 W. The desired time is set, after which the device is turned on. 1 container will require a 2-minute treatment. This completes the preparation procedure.
