Dandelion jam: a simple recipe

Dandelion jam: a simple recipe

Every hostess at least once in her life prepared jam from fruits or berries. But sometimes you want something unusual and memorable. A rather unexpected option is to make jam from flowers. It turns out very fragrant and tender, and is also useful for various diseases: liver, gallbladder, urinary tract, as well as for problems with the lungs (asthma, bronchitis) and hematopoietic organs (anemia). Dandelion jam has antioxidant properties, removes toxins from the body and is a preventive tool in the fight against cancer.

MustHub will tell you how to make this wonderful dessert and please yourself and your loved ones with an unusual sweetness.

Dandelion jam

Ingredients:

  • 300 pieces of dandelion flowers,
  • 1 kg of sugar,
  • 400 ml of water,
  • juice of half a lemon.

Preparation:

  1. Boil the water, pour the sugar into it and cook the syrup so that the sugar dissolves.
  2. Put the washed dandelion inflorescences in the syrup, bring to a boil and cook for 20 minutes. At the end, add the lemon juice to the syrup and cook for another 3 minutes.
  3. Remove the syrup from the heat and leave to infuse for a day. Then strain and squeeze through cheesecloth.
  4. Boil the syrup again for 20 minutes. The dandelion jam is ready. It turns out to be transparent, with a beautiful yellowish color and a very delicate wonderful taste, reminiscent of honey.
  5. For long-term storage, pour the dandelion jam into the prepared jars and roll it up.

Bon Appetit!
