You can use whatever method is most convenient for you to remove the core of the sour cherry. Open the sour cherries with the help of your hands and remove their cores or use a knife. Some take help to separate the core of the sour cherry from the reed.

It is better to use a tool to save time and increase the amount of sour cherries you can use to make jam. In manual mode, some of the juice and texture of the sour cherry will come out.

step 1 moraba albaloo

2. Adding sugar to sour cherries

step 2 moraba albaloo

To know how much sugar is suitable for making your sour cherry jam, taste a few sour cherries, if it is sour, use a kilo of sugar, and if it is sweet or bitter, you can use a smaller amount of sugar (about 900 grams of sugar).

Pour a thin layer of sour cherries into a suitable pot. Pour some sugar on the sour cherries so that it covers the entire surface of the fruits, repeat this process until the sugar and sour cherries are finished.

3. Excess water from the sour cherries

Pour a cup of boiling water over the sour cherries and sugar, close the pot and put it in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours so that the excess water of the sour cherries is absorbed with the help of sugar (this jam does not need to use additional water).

4. Put the sour cherries in the pot on the heat

step 4 moraba albaloo

After the specified time, put the pot on medium heat. Be sure not to increase or decrease the heat during the cooking time because this will prolong the cooking time and darken the color of your sour cherry jam.

When you put the pot on the heat, the jam will start boiling from the sides and the sugar will melt. At this stage, the sour cherries are watered. Now slowly move the sour cherries from the sides to the middle of the pot with a spoon.

5. Consistency of moraba albaloo

To make the jam clear, be sure to remove the foam

To prepare this jam, be sure to use a pot that can double or triple the ingredients. When the jam boils, the level of the content inside the pot is ready, which leads to the overflow of the jam, so be sure to pay attention to this point.

To make the jam clear, be sure to remove the foam that collects on the surface of the pot with the help of a spoon or any other suitable tool so that you have a high-quality jam in the end.

6. Methods of testing the consistency of sour cherry jam

When you feel that the syrup of the jam has reached the right concentration, and while separating the foam of the jam, the juice will spring up from the spoon, which means that the jam has reached its consistency.

Methods of testing the consistency of sour cherry jam

The second way to test the consistency of the syrup is to pour some jam juice into a saucer and put it in the refrigerator to cool.

Then, with the help of your finger, draw the jam juice from the middle, if it does not immediately return to the original state, or in other words, the jam juice moves slowly and slowly, it means that your jam syrup has reached its consistency.

In the third method to test the concentration of the syrup, you can test a few drops of the jam between two fingers. If it is sticky and elastic, it means it has reached the right consistency and you should turn off the heat.

step 6 moraba albaloo

In general, it should not take more than half an hour to reach the consistency of jam, too much boiling of jam will darken the color of your jam.

This issue causes the color of the jam to darken or the fruits of your jam to be too soft and crushed. Due to the nature and dominant taste of sour cherry fruit, there is no need to add lemon juice in preparing this jam.

If you follow the cooking time and all the tips that we have taught you in this article, you will have high-quality jams without sugar.

5 key points of making sour cherry jam(moraba albaloo) to prevent it from becoming moldy

5 key points of making sour cherry jam to prevent it from becoming moldy

  • Sour cherries that have a lighter color are much more suitable for making jam, which ultimately results in a more colorful jam.
  • When buying sour cherries, pay attention to their appearance. Sour cherries that have a round and spherical appearance can easily be pitted, but sour cherries that have a small groove at the bottom similar to a depression are not suitable for making jam at all. They are crushed and lose their texture and shape completely.
  • To make sour cherry jam, use only pure sour cherries. Transplanted sour cherries, which look almost bigger than normal sour cherries, are not suitable for making jam at all.
  • Jam consistency has a great impact on jam quality. A jam that does not have the necessary consistency will mold. A jam that has been boiled and thickened too much will become sugary or gummy. Pay attention that the concentration of jam juice will increase after cooling.
  • If in the middle of cooking the jam, you notice that your sour cherries are too watery and it may take a long time to reach the consistency of the jam, you can use a spatula to separate the sour cherries from the juice. Now let the juice boil on its own and reach the consistency.
  • After reaching the syrup consistency, add sour cherries to the syrup and let it boil for five minutes, then turn off the heat. Note that the spoon you use inside the jam must be clean and dry because using a wet spoon causes moraba albaloo to mold.

HOW DO YOU PIT CHERRIES?

If you’re brand new to the world of harvesting and preserving fruit, pitting cherries means removing the seed (or pit) from the cherry. Unfortunately, the pits of cherries are too hard to eat, so you have to pit each and every one.

In 2019, I tested 6 different methods of pitting:

  • knife
  • chopstick
  • metal straw
  • single cherry pitter
  • multiple cherry pitter
  • crank cherry pitter

While all of them work, I definitely found my favourites! Also, if you want to purchase one of the actual cherry pitters, it’s best to think ahead and purchase a couple of weeks before it’s cherry season. I found last year that if you wait until the season is here, everything is sold out.

FAQ moraba albaloo:

1. How long does it take to cook sour cherry jam?

Cooking moraba albaloo takes about 30 minutes. Cooking for more than 30 minutes will darken and crush the jam.

2. How much water should we pour for moraba albaloo?

There is no need to add water to make moraba albaloo. But if the gas flame was high or the sour cherries were low in water, you can use a glass of boiling water.

3. How to prevent moraba albaloo from becoming moldy?

Paying attention to jam concentration during cooking is the most important factor. Very thick and hard jam is susceptible to sugar. It is common to use lemon juice to prevent the sugaring of jam. Inadequate concentration and the use of wet spoons and spatulas are important factors in jam mold.
