Turn the heat on the stove and bring the mixture to boiling point. Reduce heat and let the jam simmer for about 2 hours or until it thickens. Stir slowly from time to time to prevent burning at the bottom of the saucepan. Remove foam occasionally. When thickened, withdraw from the hot plate. Pour the lemon juice and slightly stir with wooden spoon. Make a test if the jam is ready by putting a tiny drop on a porcelain plate. Lean the plate and if it remains intact, jam is ready. |
