sterilized jars with lids.

Ingredients

sea buckthorn - 1 kg
granulated sugar - 1.5 kg
bottled water - 50 ml

Step cooking

We carefully sort through 1 kg of sea buckthorn, removing leaves, twigs, as well as rotted, immature or overripe berries. Thoroughly rinse the selected product with cold tap water, and then dry it on paper towels.
Pour sea buckthorn into a suitable pan, after which we add 1.5 kg of granulated sugar and 50 ml of bottled water. You can exclude the addition of water, then fill the berries with sugar, mix and leave in this form at room temperature for 2-3 hours. During this time, sea buckthorn will start up juice, and water will not be needed.
We send the pan to the fire, where with active and constant stirring, bring the berry mass to a boil.
From the moment of boiling, boil the jam on low heat for half an hour, periodically stirring it so that the sea buckthorn does not burn. During cooking, be sure to remove the white foam formed on the surface. If you cook sea buckthorn without using water, then boil the jam for no more than 20 minutes.
In the finished jam, sea buckthorn berries should become transparent, and the syrup - pronounced amber. We spread the prepared jam on pre-sterilized jars and tightly cork them with nylon or iron lids.
Wrap the jam in a warm blanket and allow it to cool completely, after which we transfer it to a cool place for long-term storage.

Did you know? There is another very simple way to make sea buckthorn jam without boiling. To do this, sort, rinse and dry the berries. Then pass the sea buckthorn through a meat grinder and mix with sugar, based on this calculation: for 1 kg of sea buckthorn, take 1.3-1.5 sugar. Arrange the resulting berry mass in sterilized jars and store this treat in the refrigerator.
