Making strawberry jam in a slow cooker:
Step 1: prepare the jam jars.
If you are going to prepare strawberry jam for the winter, then the first thing you need to do is prepare the jars. This can also be done easily and simply using a slow cooker. To do this, pour about 500 milliliters of water into the bowl of the device, install a special basket for steaming, and place clean glass jars in it upside down and place the lids next to it. Select the “steam cooking” mode and sterilize the jars until the steam inside them begins to condense into water and flow down. Sterilized jars and lids should be carefully set aside for now, and the multicooker should be emptied for making jam.
Step 2: prepare the strawberries.
Place the strawberries in a colander and rinse thoroughly with warm running water, and then leave them hanging for a while so that excess moisture drains away. After washing, remove the green tails from the berries. Important: do not soak the strawberries in water for a long time, do everything carefully but quickly.
Step 3: prepare strawberry puree.
In order for our jam to turn out to be jam, and not jam with pieces of strawberries, the berries need to be crushed. To do this, you can use different methods: mash it the old fashioned way with your hands or a masher, pass it through a meat grinder, or cut it into small pieces with a knife. I use the simplest method, in my opinion, I puree the strawberries using an immersion blender. This allows me to achieve the most uniform consistency of the jam. Those who like pieces of berries in the finished jam should use a different method.
Step 4: cook strawberry jam in a slow cooker.
We measure out the 3 cups of strawberry puree we need and pour them into the multicooker bowl. Add 3 cups of granulated sugar there and mix well. Select the “keep warm” mode and wait until all the sugar has dissolved. Now you can proceed directly to making the jam. Set the “baking” mode and temperature to 100-120 degrees. In this case, there is no need to close the lid of the multicooker; on the contrary, the strawberries need to be stirred periodically. In this mode, the jam should not boil too much, but should simmer moderately. And when the strawberries boil, set the timer for 15 minutes. When this time has elapsed, the jam will be ready. Strawberry jam should be prepared immediately after cooking, placing it in previously sterilized glass jars. Let it seem liquid for now, after some time the jam will cool and thicken
Important: you need to put just a little citric acid at the bottom of each jar, and the lids should be tightly closed. If you are not going to make strawberry jam, then let it cool and then serve.
Step 5: Serve strawberry jam.
Of course, it’s better to wait a few hours until the strawberry jam thickens and only then serve it with tea as a dessert.
Please note that homemade jam turns out to be much tastier and healthier than store-bought analogues, and making it is not at all difficult, especially if you have a slow cooker. Strawberry jam is generally a very useful thing to have around the house. It is good either just with tea or, say, as a filling for hot pancakes or a sweet sauce for cheesecakes and pancakes
And you can safely add it to baked goods. And all this will be very tasty. Bon appetit!
Tips for the recipe:
– If you want your strawberry jam to be less sweet, but still thick, use less sugar, but use special gelling additives for jam. When adding them to your jam, follow the instructions on the package.
– Strawberry jam should be prepared in small glass jars.
– To ensure that you get the right strawberry jam, cook it in a slow cooker in exactly the quantity specified in this recipe. Need to prepare more? Then just cook the jam in several stages.

Next, you should “extract” the juice from the pulp, cover the pulp with sugar (the skin should be separated immediately), and mix. When the granulated sugar has melted, the workpiece should be put on fire and cooked until a certain thickness (thanks to the delicate pulp, persimmons boil much faster than other fruits, therefore, their cooking time is also shorter). While the jam is boiling, add vanilla to the juice, boil, remove from heat, add 100-130 ml of cognac, this “brew” should be added to the jam shortly before the end of cooking.
Place the finished jam into hot jars; when the sweet preparation has cooled, the jars should be covered with paper discs dipped in the remaining cognac, then closed with a lid. Should be stored in a cool place.

Winter preparations are replenished with bright jars with your favorite sweets from apples, pears, raspberries and currants. But sometimes you want to please your family with an unusual dessert, for example, make persimmon jam.
What you will need:
- Persimmon – 1 kg. fruits (any variety)
- Sugar – 1 kg. (if this amount makes the jam too sweet for you, use less sugar).
How to cook:
- Prepare the fruits by pouring boiling water over them (this will make the skin softer).
- Clean the fruits from damaged parts and stems
- Grind the persimmon, you can use a meat grinder or blender.
- Add sugar and put on fire

To make the jam velvety and viscous, use ripe fruits, but with elastic, dense pulp. They are easy to clean and grind. You should not buy overripe persimmons, which are difficult to cut and immediately turn into puree. If you do come across overripe fruits, cut them into 2 parts and scoop out the pulp with a teaspoon.
An unripe, hard berry is tart and not juicy. To remove the bitterness from it, you will need 2 times more sugar.

Making strawberry jam in a slow cooker:
It seems that everything is very simple, the berries are covered with sugar, mixed, the desired program is turned on and that’s it. It turns out that every recipe has its own tricks, which you can’t do without. Let's start by sorting out the berries. We need whole, not rotten strawberries. If you come across spoiled ones, put them aside. Crumpled ones are not allowed to be used to make strawberry jam in a slow cooker. What should you consider when making strawberry jam in a slow cooker? This means that you will have to prepare a delicious delicacy in small batches, because the size of the multicooker bowl is small
It is important that the bowl is only half loaded, because during the process of preparing the jam when boiling, it may “ask” to come out. It is also very important not to spoil the coating of the multicooker bowl, you need to add sugar to the berries in a separate bowl, wait until the juice is released, and then you can transfer the whole mass to the multicooker bowl for heat treatment. The sorted berries must be covered with sugar and left the bowl on the table (cover with a lid, a clean towel) overnight. During this time, the strawberries will release juice and the sugar crystals will dissolve. Next, you will need a blender to puree the strawberries right in the bowl. Pour the entire mixture into a clean multicooker bowl, you don’t even need to stir it
Turn on the “Quenching” program. Let the time be set automatically for now; here it is important to wait until the mixture boils and then you can close the lid of the multicooker. From this moment we set the time to 1 hour. Rest assured, the multicooker will cope with the task perfectly, the strawberries will not burn and will not go anywhere, you won’t even have to collect the foam. After the specified time, you need to mix the contents of the multicooker bowl - you get aromatic strawberry jam. The mass is liquid, but we need it to make jam. Therefore, we add a special powder that contains gelatin to the mass. At your discretion, you can put a pack as indicated in the recipe, and if you want it thicker, then 2. You can find out the thickness of the finished strawberry jam in a slow cooker only after the product has cooled. But you will have something to compare with, and next time you will be able to independently regulate the thickness of strawberry jam prepared in a slow cooker. Even before you start preparing strawberry jam in a slow cooker, you need to take care of jars with lids, because the preparation must wait in the wings in the pantry or basement. So the jars and lids need to be sterilized, either in a slow cooker in advance or, if that doesn’t work, then on the stove or in the oven. Hot strawberry jam in a slow cooker should be poured into prepared jars and immediately rolled up. Then wrap it in something warm (blanket, coat or jacket), leave until completely cool, there is no need to turn the jars over and put them on the lids.
