    60 g

  • Agar-agar

    5 g

  • Water

    40 g

Cooking

step-0
In order to prepare a tasty marmalade good consistency, I had to remember math. And the math here is simple. Knowing that the agar-agar dilution liquid 1 to 20 (1:20) gives a stiff jelly, it's easy to calculate the proportions of the ingredients. It turns out that 5 g of agar (which is a tablespoon without top) you need 100 g of liquid. The best taste and texture of marmalade I got at a ratio of 60 g jam + 40 g of water. Thus: per 5 g (tablespoon) agar we take 40 g water and 60 g of jam. Of course, this amount is very small, he will make only 3-4 marmeladen, but you can easily increase the number of ingredients at least 10 times.
step-1
So, measure out the desired quantity of agar-agar, cold water and jam. Using for cooking marmalade jams "Mahe", you can be sure that product will turn out all-natural, tasty, no flavors and colors, with chunks of berries and fruits!
step-2
Agar-agar fill with water. You can leave 30 minutes for the swelling, but I usually heat the agar directly, always get a good gel.
step-3
On medium heat while stirring bring mixture to a boil. It is strongly thickens and turns into a gel. The gel need to boil 1-2 minutes so that the agar is fully dissolved. The main thing is to see that the gel doesn't burn.
step-4
In boiling gel add the jam. Stir thoroughly and cook for another 2 minutes with constant stirring to ensure that the gel is well distributed throughout the jelly mass.
step-5
Remove marmalade from heat. Wait until it stops boiling, and poured into molds. It is very convenient to use silicone molds for ice or candy. You can pour the marmalade in a single layer form, and then, after cooling, cut it into pieces. Products with agar solidifies at 40 degrees Celsius. At room temperature, the marmalade will harden in about half an hour. In the fridge for a few minutes. If the marmalade is frozen before you have time to bottle, simply re-heat the mass to dissolve.
step-6
Frozen marmalade, you can roll in sugar. Real sugar can be a little dry, and then will need to re-obscurity marmalade.
step-7
Out of any jam "Mahe" is a very tasty marmalade. I liked the strawberry and blueberry. Husband - raspberry and currant, and the children quickly eat up the whole sea buckthorn ))) Now plans for the near future apricot and orange.
