Since Jonathan is a sour apple, if I got them early, it could have been too sour. Therefore, I have just kept them hanging on the tree. Then some of them fell onto the ground, and some were eaten by worms and insects. I picked up them yesterday, and made them jam today. I used not cane sugar but beet sugar this time.
In reality, there is a lot of insects’ excrement. I got rid of them carefully.
I grated the apple. Thinking about the amount of sugar I had, I just stop grating when I got 1 kilogram of grated apple.
The pan was a little big, but anyway, I boiled 1kg(=1000g) of apple with 800g of beet sugar.
I got six bottles and more of apple jam. When I harvest fig in October, then I will make fig jam. I hope that I won’t need to buy any jam from the supermarket until spring, by pasting these my handmade jam on toast in breakfast.
