How to make blackcurrant jam in a slow cooker

Attention! There are rules that must be followed when creating jam in any multicooker model.
  • Ripe currants are separated from the branches, and specimens that have begun to deteriorate are removed.
  • Berries and fruits are thoroughly washed under running cold water, and then drained in a colander or laid out on a clean towel to drain the liquid.
  • They only take bottled water.
  • The multicooker bowl is filled approximately 2/4 full. After all, when the jam boils, its volume will increase. The product may overflow. For the same reason, you should not close the multicooker lid.
  • During cooking, the mixture must be stirred periodically.
  • The foam that will appear on top is completely removed.
  • After the program is completed, keep the jam in the multicooker for another half hour.
  • The workpiece is poured into sterilized containers. It is better if these are small glass jars.
  • The filled container is closed with nylon, polyethylene or tin lids poured with boiling water.
  • After the jam has cooled completely, it is placed in a permanent storage location. A cellar or other room where the temperature does not rise above +6 °C is suitable, in which case the jam will be suitable for use for up to a year. If the temperature regime is not observed, the shelf life is reduced by half - up to 6 months.

Terms and conditions of storage

The best place to store the workpiece is a cellar or refrigerator (but not a freezer). In summer, the temperature ranges from 3 to 6 degrees above zero, in winter it is 1-2 degrees higher. The difference is explained by the humidity that usually occurs indoors during warm seasons. In winter, the air is drier, which means the influence of the environment on the product is less.

On average, the product can be stored for 1.5 years. The main thing is to prevent the product from freezing. If the temperature drops below zero, there is a high risk of cracks appearing on the can. If the temperature jumps are significant, the glass will burst, unable to withstand the pressure.
