Prepare the fruit
10 minWash and drain the stemmed irga berries.
Jam
Made from irga, a wild berry of the Kazakh steppe, this jam is prepared by simmering the small purple berries with sugar and lemon over low heat for hours until thick. Since the fruit is naturally low in pectin, getting the right set takes patience.
Step by Step
How to make it?
2
Boil
15 minSimmer the irga with the sugar, lemon juice and water over medium heat for 15 minutes.
3
Thicken over low heat
70 minLower the heat and continue simmering for another 70 minutes, skimming the foam, testing the set until it reaches the right consistency.
4
Jar it
5 minLadle the hot jam into sterilised jars and seal the lids tightly.
Reminder
Skim the foam regularly while simmering, or the jam will look cloudy and grainy. Test the set by dropping a little onto a cold plate and pushing it with your finger; if it wrinkles, it's ready.
Editor's Note Editörün Notu
Since the fruit is low in pectin, adding the peel of half a lemon to the pot helps the jam set more easily.
