This jam has a very bright taste, a couple of spoons is quite enough for an evening tea party. You can also use them to spread cakes, toppings of chocolates or arrange them in small jars for New Year’s gifts. It’s going to be amazing!
Wash the tangerines thoroughly, put them in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil, then cook over low heat for 20 minutes.
Remove the finished tangerines from the mold, let them cool down a little and cut off the stems.
Cut the tangerines into pieces (remove the bones, if any) and put them in the bowl of a food processor.
Grind, but not to a homogeneous consistency, leave small pieces of pulp and skin.
To me, it looks something like this.
Put the chopped tangerines in a saucepan, add lemon juice, sugar and star anise, stir and bring to a boil.
Cook over low heat until thickened (20-30 minutes).
Put the finished jam in jars.
The density of jam can be varied, it is enough to boil it longer.
I make this jam from sour tangerines, so the amount of sugar here is optimal for our taste.
Have a nice winter!
