Pumpkin jam for winter

To make pumpkin jam, we will need one medium-sized pumpkin. It is best to choose an overripe pumpkin of sweet varieties. Next, the pumpkin should be well washed and cleaned of seeds. Then we cut it into small cubes. In total, you should get about 1.7 kg of peeled pumpkin. Put the whole mass in a saucepan and add a little water. Close the pan with a lid and leave it on low heat. The mass should be extinguished until soft. The finished mixture should be rubbed through a colander or ground in a food processor, then add granulated sugar and leave to boil over low heat. You need to cook the mixture until it thickens, the consistency of the jam should be a little thicker than jam. To prevent our pumpkin jam from being too sweet, add citric acid. Now the jam is completely ready. Jam is good both for rolling up for the winter and for storing in refrigerators. Bon appetit!
