How to properly cook tasty, thick and aromatic sea buckthorn jam? Cook with seeds or without seeds? The best recipe is up to you!
It has a pleasant consistency and a transparent amber color. This homemade sea buckthorn jam can be served with pancakes and pancakes, or used as a filling for pies or any other baked goods.
The first thing to do is prepare the berries for cooking. Leaves, stalks, and spoiled fruits should be removed.
Rinse the sea buckthorn in cold water and weigh out 800 grams of sugar.
The jam is made from sea buckthorn juice with pulp, but without seeds. To make it easier to extract the juice, the berries must be blanched. You can do this in a juicer or in a slow cooker. You just need to place the berries in a steamer tray, covering them with a piece of gauze.
Turn on the “steam” program, set the time to 35 minutes. After the program ends, the berries should be placed on a sieve in small portions.
And wipe.
Sea buckthorn cake can be used to obtain sea buckthorn oil.
Pour the resulting sea buckthorn juice into the multicooker bowl and mix with sugar.
Boil until the volume reduces for 15 minutes, setting the “frying” program with the lid open.
If you boil sea buckthorn juice longer, you get even thicker jam. If you boil sea buckthorn juice with sugar longer, you can make jam, marmalade, and even caramel. In a word, be careful not to overdo it.
Sea buckthorn jam for the winter, the recipe with photo of which I offer, is tasty and aromatic. prepared without cooking. Sea buckthorn is a storehouse of vitamins. And sea buckthorn that has not been subjected to heat treatment is many times more beneficial.
Sea buckthorn needs to be freshly picked, not fermented. Even one rotten berry will ruin all the jam; it will simply ferment. Remove leaves and debris from the berries and rinse under running water. Drain in a colander to drain the liquid for 20 minutes.
There is no need to lay it out on a towel, this berry is too tender. Now you need to separate the cake and seeds from the juice. You can use a juicer, or rub the sea buckthorn through a sieve.
Suspend the resulting sea buckthorn juice. 1300 grams of berries should yield a kilogram of juice. Sprinkle sea buckthorn juice with sugar. The weight of sugar should be exactly twice the weight of sea buckthorn puree.
Mix the sugar well, cover the sea buckthorn puree with a clean towel and leave at room temperature for several hours. The most important condition for good live sea buckthorn jam, which will be stored for a long time, is completely dissolved sugar. Stir the mixture approximately every half hour to speed up the dissolution of the granulated sugar. Instead of sugar, you can use powder, then the “tincture” time of sea buckthorn puree will be reduced to an hour.
Rinse the jars well with baking soda and detergent and sterilize. An important condition is complete sterility. When the sugar has dissolved, put the sea buckthorn puree into jars and cover with plastic lids. The jars must be completely dry. You can store sea buckthorn jam without cooking for a year in the refrigerator, or for three months at room temperature. This is a guaranteed shelf life if all conditions are met. Most likely, sea buckthorn puree can be stored longer.
But keep in mind that the longer it is stored, the less vitamins it will retain.
Making sea buckthorn jam at home is no more difficult than any other. You can verify this by studying this photo recipe. Even a beginner with no experience in canning can handle it.
In this recipe we will make jam from frozen sea buckthorn, but you can use fresh berries.
Since frozen berries are used in this case, we will first defrost them.
Cover the berries with sugar and leave them in this state for a day or at least overnight.
Now we put the sea buckthorn with sugar on the fire and cook it for about half an hour. The jam must be stirred constantly, otherwise it will burn.
The healthy treat should boil.
Remove any foam that forms on the sea buckthorn jam.
Now you can check the readiness of the jam. You can do this at home in a simple way: drop a little jam on the countertop. If the spot does not spread, and if it is sticky like honey, then the jam is ready.
Now you need to let the jam cool. You can’t roll it up while it’s hot, otherwise condensation will form in the jars and the finished delicacy will quickly become moldy.
While the jam is cooling, you can sterilize the jars. We cork the cold jam and put it in the pantry.
Tasty, sweet and very healthy sea buckthorn jam. Sea buckthorn is a magic berry for 100 ailments. Its seeds, skin and pulp contain a huge amount of healthy oils and vitamins. And if you have a lot of free time, you are in no hurry and want to prepare a healthy and tasty preserve, unpasteurized sea buckthorn jam is what you need during the cold winter from harmful vitamin deficiency, which weakens the human immune system.
Sea buckthorn berries stick very tightly to the branches, so take scissors and carefully cut them into a large, deep enamel bowl. Select the spoiled, rotten ones, and cut off the stems of the rest with scissors and throw them into a large, deep colander. Rinse the sea buckthorn under running water to remove various types of contaminants and leave in a colander to drain all the water. Then transfer the berries back to the washed bowl.
Turn on the stove to medium level and place a pan with the required amount of clean distilled water on it. After the water boils, add the required amount of sugar and cook the syrup for 5 - 10 minutes until the sugar is completely dissolved, stirring it occasionally with a wooden spoon or wooden kitchen spatula.
Then pour the syrup into the bowl with the berries and let them brew for 30 - 40 minutes. Then place the bowl with the ingredients on the stove and cook the jam for 10 minutes on low heat, constantly stirring and skimming off the foam with a slotted spoon. The time is counted after the total mass boils.
Then set the jam aside in a cool place and cover the bowl with a lid. The next day, boil the jam again for 10 minutes, remembering to remove the foam with a slotted spoon, and leave to settle overnight. On the third day, boil the jam for 15 minutes.
After you have boiled the jam for the third time, take a ladle and pour it hot into sterilized jars, cover with sterilized lids for preservation and immediately roll up with a prickly preserver. Wipe the jars with a damp kitchen towel to remove stickiness, turn the top upside down and place on the floor.
Place a woolen blanket on top of the preservation so that there are no gaps between the floor and the blanket, so the jam will cool gradually without sudden temperature changes. Place the cooled jars in a dark, cool, well-ventilated place, such as a pantry, basement or cellar.
We sort out the ripe sea buckthorn berries and remove the stems. Fill with cold water and wash. Place in a colander to drain the water. Rinse again and pour into the pan. Fill with water so that it lightly covers the berries. Put it on high heat to cook. When the water boils, collect the foam and turn down the heat. Cook sea buckthorn jam over low heat for 20 minutes.
Remove from heat. We wipe the boiled sea buckthorn through a colander and pour out the rest of the liquid in which the berries were boiled. Add sugar at the rate: for 1 kg of boiled and ground sea buckthorn add one and a half kilograms of sugar.
Let it simmer again over low heat and periodically collect the foam and stir the jam. While the sea buckthorn jam is cooking, prepare the jars. Wash them and then fry them in the oven at 180 degrees for 10 minutes.
During the cooking process, the sea buckthorn jam will become thicker and slightly darker. The finished jam is hot, poured into clean jars and covered with lids for the winter.
If the fruits are subjected to heat treatment, then sea buckthorn will simply lose more than half of its beneficial properties.
That's why our jam is prepared without cooking.
We select high-quality sea buckthorn fruits; crushed or dry ones are discarded: they are not suitable for making sea buckthorn jam without cooking.
Wash and dry the berries.
And fill the berries with sugar in a ratio of approximately 2 to 1.
Mix well and leave the sea buckthorn jam for several hours without cooking, so that the sea buckthorn releases its juice.
We sterilize the jars (either in the microwave or in boiling water).
Place sea buckthorn jam in jars very tightly and right up to the edges.
We screw the lids on and store them either in the cellar (if anyone has one) or in the refrigerator.
First of all, I picked the berries from the branches.
I washed them in a colander under cold water.
I put it in a cooking ladle, covered it with sugar and left it for 1.5 hours.
Stir and put on low heat.
After the sugar has completely dissolved, boil it, stirring, for 10 minutes and turn it off.
Let it cool completely. Then put it on the fire and boiled until it boiled.
Finely chop the walnuts with a knife.
I fell asleep with the berries.
Boil for 12-15 minutes, stirring regularly.
One caveat. Many people add water to sea buckthorn jam. In my opinion, it’s absolutely in vain, because sea buckthorn gives a lot of its juice and, in combination with water, the overall consistency becomes too liquid. But this is a matter of taste.
If you plan to cook a lot and for long-term storage, then you need to immediately put the jam into sterilized jars.
Sea buckthorn can rightfully be called one of the most beneficial berries for our body. It also has an absolutely incomparable taste and aroma.
And that’s why they like to drink tea with it, and of course, they prepare it for the winter.
It can be used as an additive to various dishes, desserts, or as a filling for baked goods. And how much can be made from it: compote, jam, jelly, juice, and much more. What is the price of jelly alone, mmm... Have you tried it? It's amazingly delicious! And compotes are actually a godsend - it’s so convenient for a holiday, for example, to open a jar.
And most importantly, this is a completely natural product!
Today I would like to bring to your attention several options for preparing this miraculous berry for the winter season.
You can learn how to prepare delicious, healthy jelly for children's “capricious” breakfasts. How to prepare compote for all occasions, amber jam for tea, and simply how to prepare a “magic” berry for the winter. All recipes are quite simple to implement and do not require much time.
Fresh sea buckthorn without cooking the berries is a real “vitamin bomb” that supports and protects the body from all sorts of ailments and diseases.
Besides, it is also very tasty. By putting a few spoons into hot tea, we get an aromatic drink that is pleasant in taste.
I always prepare berries this way also in order to make healthy, delicious fruit drinks. Children are simply delighted with these.
And be sure to prepare several jars. Moreover, everything is done as easily as possible.
We will need:
If you count in kilograms, then for 1 kg of sea buckthorn you should take 1300 - 1500 sugar, depending on what degree of sweetness you prefer.
Preparation:
1. Of course, the berry must be washed before working with it, and excess leaves and twigs must be removed. Then give it a chance to dry. Since we will not cook it, it is not advisable for water to remain on the surface. It can trigger the fermentation process.
Therefore, it is better to wash the fruits in advance so that all the water has time to evaporate before cooking. And to be sure, also blot the top with paper towels.
2. Then grind it in a meat grinder or food processor, but try to prevent your assistant from whipping it at the same time.
You can also grind the berries using a blender. And if you don’t want the finished jam to contain seeds and skins, then grind through a sieve.
Although I would not advise you to do this. The skins contain most of the useful substances, and precious sea buckthorn oil is made from the seeds.
3. Sugar can be added after grinding the orange “beauty”. If you use a blender or food processor, then it is better to pour it in before you start churning.
In this case, the crystals will dissolve faster and there will be no need to stir the contents for a long time to achieve the desired state.
4. Transfer the resulting puree into clean, sterilized jars and add two tablespoons of sugar on top. Thus. we will create a “safety cushion”, and the finished aromatic puree will not ferment.
The prepared grated delicacy should be stored in the refrigerator or in a cold cellar. If the storage temperature is above 4 degrees, then fermentation processes may begin in the jar.
After the onset of cold weather, you can take the workpiece out onto the glassed-in loggia, thereby freeing up space in the refrigerator.
5. Eat at any time with tea, or make delicious fruit drinks. In this case, pass the diluted drink through a sieve, where all the skins and seeds that are no longer needed by that time will remain.
It's very simple and very tasty! And many housewives prepare fruits in this way.
This recipe is even simpler than the previous one. The most difficult thing about it is preparing the berries, that is, sorting them out from debris and twigs, washing and drying them.
Ready-made jam is a real storehouse of vitamins and nutrients.
We will need:
Preparation:
1. Wash and sterilize jars and lids. Dry them.
2. Pour clean dry fruits into jars in a layer of about 2 - 3 cm. Then sprinkle this layer with sugar. And thus, alternating, fill the entire glass container completely.
3. Cover with a lid and let stand at room temperature for 12 hours. The berry will release a little juice, and this is good, it means the process has started.
Now you can put our preparation in the refrigerator, the process of formation of sugar syrup will continue to occur there. After some time, all the berries will be in it.
After about a week, juice will be released into about half the jar, and after another week, all the fruits will be in their own aromatic juice.
Store the filled jars without removing them from the refrigerator.
Needless to say, the result is simply an incredibly tasty preparation, the berries of which seem to have just been picked from the bush!
This red berry turns out divinely delicious even when cooked with sugar. This beautiful amber jam will not leave anyone indifferent. But of course, we will not cook the delicacy for a long time, so as not to lose the beneficial properties.
In this case we will use a little more sugar than in previous recipes. This is due to the fact that we will prepare the jam according to the “five-minute” principle.
We will need:
Preparation:
1. We free the sea buckthorn from small debris, wash it from possible dust and contaminants - we get berry after berry! Pour the clean fruits into an enamel kitchen bowl or wide pan, this will make it more convenient to cook them.
2. Add sugar and leave for twelve hours, it is best to do this at night. During this time, the berry will have time to produce juice.
Now put on the fire and bring to a boil. We boil for five minutes, no more is needed, we want to preserve all the useful microelements and vitamins.
Don’t forget to skim off the foam so you can eat it right away!) We always have a line lined up for it! And no wonder with such and such an aroma!…
3. Pour into sterilized jars directly while hot and close with sterile lids. Allow the jam in the jars to cool at room temperature and store in the pantry or refrigerator.
Since it did not take long to prepare it, it is better to store it in a cool place. Although we hedged our bets by adding a significant amount of sugar.
We don't keep this delicious food for long. Within a month we eat it, washed down with tea, and soon not a trace of the jam remains.
Many of us prefer jams and jellies, especially children. It's great that you can combine healthy and tasty in one.
What you will need:
Preparation:
1. First, be sure to sort out and rinse the berries. Then we need to get juice and puree from it, removing the skin and seeds. To do this, pass the berries through a meat grinder or blender. And if you have a combine, the whole process will take just a few minutes.
In this case, it is only important to chop the fruits; there is no need to knock them down.
2. Now take a sieve, place it on a deep plate and pour the sea buckthorn mass into it. It is better to post the contents in small batches to make it easier and faster to work.
3. Grind with a spoon so that the sea buckthorn juice and puree fall into the plate under the sieve.
If you don’t have a large sieve, you can take gauze and squeeze through it. This is how they always did it before. It may take a little longer, but the result is the same everywhere.
We don’t throw away the cake; you can drink tea with it by simply putting it in a hot brew.
4. Add 80% sugar to the resulting juice and mix thoroughly until it dissolves. You can leave it on the kitchen counter for a while and stir every 15 to 20 minutes.
Then put it in the refrigerator for three hours.
5. Meanwhile, sterilize the jars and lids and let them cool completely. It is better to do this in advance so that the water has time to drain or evaporate.
And you can pour the future jelly into jars. In each of them, pour the remaining sugar on top of the jelly, about a couple of tablespoons per jar.
If you have very small containers, then you should pour less accordingly.
After a day, the mass will gel and our dessert will be ready.
Store the finished treat in the refrigerator, covered. After opening the jar, it is better to use it within a week or two.
Honey, of course, is not as good a preservative as sugar, but it is very healthy, and in combination with sea buckthorn it is a real benefit! If you take this delicacy just a teaspoon a day, it will help your immune system cope with colds.
And yet, it’s just very tasty!
We will need:
Preparation:
1. Remove small debris and leaves from the berries and rinse them thoroughly under running water. Place on a clean kitchen towel to absorb all excess water.
Since we will not cook the berries in this version, water is not needed here at all, so that it does not cause fermentation processes.
2. Place the dried berries in an enamel bowl or large glass container. Armed with a masher, press all the contents into a puree, which of course will come out with skins and seeds.
If desired, they can, of course, be removed, but along with them we will then remove most of the useful substances. What we don’t want is why we leave everything as it is.
3. Add honey to this mass and mix thoroughly. We give it the opportunity to completely disperse and imbue all the contents with its taste. To do this, leave the bowl with mixed berries on the kitchen table for 3 - 4 hours.
During this time, the mass should be mixed several times.
4. Then pour our delicacy into sterilized and dried jars and cover with clean lids.
Sea buckthorn compote is a separate topic. When I first tried it, it was just a taste “explosion” in my mind. I had never even imagined before that it could be so tasty.

2. After the water has drained, place the fruits in liter jars, filling them 1/3 full and pour boiling water over them. Cover with lids and let stand for ten minutes. The fruits must be very well heated.
Both jars and lids must be sterilized.
3. Drain the water into the pan. You can use a special lid with holes for this; in this case, the berries will remain in the jar.
4. Add sugar to this water and, stirring, bring to a boil; all crystals should of course dissolve.
5. We have a syrup and pour it into the contents in the jars. You should pour right up to the neck so that when you close the lids, even a little of the excess will spill out.
It is better to close compotes with iron lids using a seaming machine. This is the most reliable method of preservation.
6. Turn the finished compote over and put it on the lid, wrap it in a blanket. Leave it like this to cool slowly for about a day. or rather, until the syrup has completely cooled.
This is an additional sterilization of the contents, called pasteurization. Slow cooling promotes better storage in the future.
7. The compote should be stored in a cool and dark place. A cellar in your home or a storage room in your apartment is perfect.
In winter, open the jar and fully enjoy the taste, smell and color of the drink!
Compotes can also be made mixed. So, it turns out very tasty to cook them with apples. A new filling and an interesting flavor combination appears.

For those who do not like to deal with jars, there is an easy way to preserve vitamin berries - freezing. It turns out just as tasty and healthy, but without the extra hassle.
From frozen fruits, you can make fruit drinks, compote, or simply crush them and pour tea with sugar at any time.

1. We sort the berries from twigs and small debris, wash them and place them on paper towels to dry. 40 minutes is enough for all the moisture to evaporate.
To be sure, you can also blot the top with paper towels.
2. Now you need to transfer the berries to a tray or baking sheet so that they are separate from each other. Place them in the freezer for three hours.
The air temperature in the freezer should be about twenty degrees.
Then remove the baking sheet and place it in bags or containers. If you like it sweeter, you can mix the berries with sugar before putting them into bags.
It's that simple! It will take just a little time and the freezing is ready.
You can make your favorite jam from more than just one berry. It tastes best with the addition of walnuts. And the syrup is prepared on the basis of rose hips.
That's so interesting! That is, there is no longer one complex of vitamins, but two, and even three. After all, rose hips are known as a storehouse of vitamin C, and not only... And nuts also contain quite a few useful things.

Surely not everyone has tried sea buckthorn jam. Meanwhile, even after heat treatment, the berry remains a real storehouse of useful substances, for which it has received the popular name “orange pharmacy”. Because of its specific aroma and tart taste, not everyone likes fresh sea buckthorn fruits. In jam, the taste and smell of the berries softens, but there are still a lot of benefits.
Sea buckthorn jam can be prepared in different ways and each time it will be good in its own way. One housewife prefers to cook it quickly, without spending a lot of time, while another is ready to work hard and add additional ingredients to get a delicious taste. Only one component is irreplaceable here - sea buckthorn itself.
Research has proven that sea buckthorn strengthens the heart, removes uric acid from the body, cleanses organs of toxins, normalizes body temperature during fever, helps cleanse the liver and kidneys, renews skin cells and improves complexion, helps fight insomnia and depression.
Therefore, jam made from these berries can be considered literally a medicine. Cooking sea buckthorn is much faster than picking it, because the berries are quite small. But the effort expended is worth the end result. For jam, you should select whole berries without damage or signs of rot.
Note! You need to wait until the sea buckthorn is fully ripe. You can collect it even after the first frost. Unripe berries will taste bitter.
According to any recipe, you should not cook dessert for more than 20 minutes in order to preserve the maximum amount of nutrients in the original product. The easiest way to prepare classic sea buckthorn jam. It turns out thick and tasty. For preparation you need:
The washed berries are poured into a bowl, sugar is added and allowed to brew at room temperature for 3-4 hours. During this time, the berries will release juice. Now you can put the pan on the fire. From the moment of boiling, the dessert is cooked for 10 minutes, constantly stirring and crushing the berries. After this, the jam is poured into sterilized jars, covered with lids and stored in a cool place.
Sea buckthorn berries contain a large amount of organic acids. Due to this feature, sea buckthorn jam is stored well even with short-term heat treatment. The berries make excellent five-minute jam. To prevent the dessert from fermenting, you should add a little more granulated sugar than according to the usual recipe. To prepare you will need:
First, a thick syrup is boiled from water and granulated sugar. It is better to use a pan with thick walls, then the jam will not burn. You can check the readiness of the syrup by dropping a small drop onto a saucer. It should retain its shape and not blur.
Then the washed berries, dried with a paper towel, are thrown into the boiling syrup and kept on high heat for 5 minutes. The finished jam is poured into sterilized jars and closed with ordinary nylon lids, since the workpiece will still have to be kept in the refrigerator due to minimal heat treatment.
This is a special recipe that allows you to preserve the maximum amount of vitamin C in the product, which is destroyed at high temperatures. Sea buckthorn without cooking will serve as a tasty medicine in winter during the cold season. After all, it is known that vitamin C helps the body resist influenza and ARVI, as well as recover faster after an illness.
This preparation is also suitable for preparing a delicious vitamin drink; just dilute 2-3 teaspoons of the finished product in a glass of boiled water. To ensure that sea buckthorn with sugar does not contain anything unnecessary, the berries are first blanched and rubbed through a sieve, after which the skin and seeds are discarded. To prepare you will need:
The number of ingredients may be different, but the proportions must be respected. Juice and sugar are mixed with each other. To speed up and facilitate this process, the mixture can be slightly heated on the stove.
Note! To ensure that the vitamins remain intact, berry juice and sugar should not be brought to a boil.
After the sand has completely dissolved, the workpiece is poured into sterilized jars and sealed with metal screw caps. This sea buckthorn should be stored exclusively in the refrigerator.
Today, a multicooker has found its home in almost every kitchen and makes life a lot easier for both inexperienced and experienced housewives. This assistant prepares the dish without outside participation, preventing the food from burning and drying out. The multicooker makes any kind of jam perfectly; some models even have a special mode for this.
If your equipment does not have this capability, the dessert is prepared using the “stew” function. The total cooking time takes no more than 3 hours. You only need 2 simple ingredients:
Selected washed berries are poured into a bowl along with granulated sugar and wait for the juice to form. When this stage is completed, the mixture of sea buckthorn and sugar is transferred to the multicooker bowl and the “stew” mode is turned on. The jam will cook for about an hour with the lid open. It is not necessary to stir it, but you need to skim off the foam.
As soon as the healthy treat is ready, it is poured into sterilized jars and sealed with metal lids. If you are going to eat the jam in the near future, you can cover the container with a nylon lid or parchment paper and store it in the refrigerator.
Sea buckthorn and apple jam combines two healthy and tasty products. This recipe will especially help those who have several well-fruiting apple trees in their dacha. Part of the harvested crop can be left for fresh storage, and the rest can be processed. It is better to take equal amounts of both ingredients. To make this jam you use:
The berries must be sorted and washed. The apples are first washed, then peeled and cut into small slices. All the above ingredients are combined together and wait for the juice to form. This usually takes several hours.
At the next stage, the workpiece is transferred to a saucepan and brought to a boil. After this, the fire is turned off and the future dessert is kept for several hours; many simply leave it overnight so that the apples and berries are thoroughly soaked in syrup.
The second stage of preparation takes 40 minutes. The jam is brought to a boil and kept over low heat, stirring constantly. When the delicacy is ready, it is poured into sterilized jars and sealed with metal lids. This preparation can be stored all winter at room temperature.
Seedless jam has a very delicate consistency, and is more like jam. Only very ripe berries are suitable for this recipe. Of course, it must be of good quality. First, the sea buckthorn is sorted and washed, blanched for 15-20 minutes, and then rubbed through a sieve. In this case, it turns out that the drupes and skins do not end up in the jam; it is based only on pulp and juice.
A more modern way of preparing berries is to use a juicer. For the recipe you will need:
Pour sand into the resulting berry puree and wait 15 minutes until the sugar is completely dissolved. Now the mixture can be put on the fire and brought to a boil, stirring constantly so that it does not burn. After this, reduce the flame to a minimum and keep the jam on the fire for 5 minutes. The finished dessert is poured into sterilized jars and sealed with metal lids. It is better to store it in a cool place.
Honey will only complement the healing properties of sea buckthorn. This preparation in winter can replace a vitamin complex, a cure for colds and will help keep a tired body in good shape.
Making a healthy dessert is incredibly easy. For it you will need:
If the honey is candied, it needs to be melted in a water bath. After this, the berries in a saucepan are poured with liquid honey and heated over low heat, without bringing to a boil, then the heat is turned off. This procedure is done three times with an interval of 30 minutes.
The finished jam is poured into sterilized jars, rolled up with metal lids and wrapped until cool. To ensure that the healing delicacy is well stored, it is stored in a cold cellar.
The taste combination of sea buckthorn and orange will be original and bright for the taster. Citrus fruit complements the healthy berry not only with taste, but also with useful components. We can say that a jar of such jam contains a charge of vivacity, health and good mood. The cooking process itself will not take much of your time. You will need to prepare in advance:
The washed selected berries are combined in a pan with granulated sugar and placed on the stove to quickly form juice. As soon as the mixture reaches a boil, it must be turned off. Meanwhile, peel the oranges and squeeze out the juice, which is immediately added to the pan. The mixture should be simmered over low heat for 15 minutes, stirring constantly.
Another option for preparing such a dessert involves grinding the orange in a meat grinder along with the zest and then adding it to the berries. This delicacy turns out thicker and more aromatic. The prepared jam is placed in clean, sterile jars and sealed with metal lids. It is better to store it in a cellar or basement.
If you have a pumpkin of incredible size on your site, you can use some of it for harvesting and make unusual jam with sea buckthorn. The color of this dessert will be amazing, sunny. And in terms of vitamin content, jam will surpass many other dishes. At the preparatory stage, the pumpkin is cut into small cubes, and the juice is squeezed out of the sea buckthorn. The quantities of all ingredients will be as follows:
Then everything will be quite simple. The ingredients are combined in an enamel container and placed on the stove. After the mixture boils, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook, stirring occasionally. After 20 minutes, add chopped lemon zest to the pan, let the jam boil again and turn it off. Now the workpiece needs to be distributed into jars, closed with metal lids and taken to the basement for storage.

Sea buckthorn is a shrub that can reach 10 m in height. The plant is resistant to both heat and severe frosts, and therefore it is widespread in Europe, Asia and northern regions (for example, Canada). But the real “sea buckthorn leader” is China. The shrub grows mainly on the banks of reservoirs with sandy soil or on rocky mountain slopes. More and more often, sea buckthorn can be seen in summer cottages, because it is an excellent hedge, decoration of the territory, and also an inexhaustible source of vitamins.
The berries are collected and stored at the moment of their full ripeness - from August to October. The easiest way is to wait for frost. Then it will be enough to shake the branch, and the sea buckthorn itself will fall off. But if you are afraid that birds will eat the berries and want to collect them earlier, do not forget to wear canvas gloves, because sharp thorns grow on the branches. It is recommended to shock-freeze or dry the harvested crop. But it’s better to process the berries into healthy and tasty jam.
Sea buckthorn jam of sunny orange color can give a warm and joyful mood even in the coldest winter. But this product is famous not only for its taste. Sea buckthorn is an effective medicine, the healing properties of which have been known since ancient times.
