The cookware in which you cook a particular dish also affects the correctness of preparation, and often the taste.
Therefore, there are also both the right pots for cooking jam and the wrong ones, in which it should not be cooked.
Culinary expert of HERE NEWS, chef and fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova will share her culinary life hacks with you.
What kind of cookware should you not use to cook jam?
Cookware made of aluminum is absolutely not suitable for cooking jam.
This prohibition is due to the properties of the material itself. Aluminum easily oxidizes when exposed to high temperatures.
Because of this, the dish that is cooked in it gets the metal impurities it contains. Jam cooked in an aluminum pan will not only become useless, but will also acquire a characteristic iron taste.
But all other types of cookware are suitable for making jam.
The berry and fruit delicacy can be cooked in stainless steel, enameled saucepans, and copper basins. The main requirements are that the dishes must have a thick bottom and walls to maintain the temperature.
