How to make homemade additive-free orange jam

Whether we can have a healthy body is related to whether we can enjoy life well, and a healthy body requires sufficient dietary nutrition to ensure it. In normal times, we should pay attention to eating out less and cooking more at home. The method of making homemade additive-free orange jam is very simple and suitable for those who want to be healthy but don’t have too much time.

1. Wash two fresh, smooth-skinned oranges, and use a grater to peel off the surface of the peel. The inner white part is not needed, as it will be bitter if added with orange jam.

2. Add a little salt to the orange peel shreds and marinate for ten minutes. Then rinse and squeeze out the water. You can wrap it with kitchen paper and squeeze it out, which is very convenient.

3. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon, just one spoonful is enough.

4. Peel the orange, remove the white tendons and inner membrane, leaving only the flesh and juice.

5. Add the pulp, juice, orange peel and rock sugar into the pot, bring to a boil over high heat and then simmer over low heat.

6. Simmer for about half an hour, stirring occasionally in the middle, and stirring more often as time goes by, until the orange jam becomes thick, then turn off the heat. It will become thicker as it cools.

7. Add a spoonful of lemon juice before turning off the heat. It is a natural preservative and can extend the shelf life of the jam.

8. Put the jam in a sealed glass container while it is still hot, turn it upside down, and store it in the refrigerator after it cools down.

9. Take it out and enjoy it when you want to eat it!

We are not completely denying the benefits of eating out, but it has many disadvantages. Making homemade additive-free orange jam is simple and healthier.
