Lemon Jam
Preserves • Icelandic
Description
For this jam, you should choose fresh lemons that are not dried out, firm, and without any dents. They should contain enough juice; if a lemon feels light, it means it has little juice.
Ingredients
- Lemon 20 oz
- Sugar 20 oz
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Wash the lemons, dry them, and cut them into large pieces with the peel on. Remove the seeds, as they can impart bitterness and create an unpleasant crunch.

Pass the lemons through a meat grinder.
Step 3
Combine the lemon puree with sugar and let it sit for 2 hours.
Step 4
Place the lemon mixture over heat, bring to a boil, and cook for 10 minutes.
Step 5
Remove the jam from the heat and let it cool completely.
Step 6
Repeat the boiling and cooling process two more times.
Step 7
Sterilize the jam jar over steam for 10 minutes. Then, dry it off.
Step 8
Bring the jam to a boil one last time and transfer it to a jar. Seal it with a lid or can it.
