Cherry jam

Hello everyone.You will see, the jam seems to me a healthy option for breakfast because the sugar that contains the fruit spends it throughout the day (it will be healthy whenever no butter is used in the toast ... I use light cheese or cheese or cheese ofBurgos).Obviously I only put on a toast and jam only two teaspoons of dessert (from Moka's).Also in my case, I usually take little fruit (a daily piece and sometimes even that).It is not going well to take much fruit if you are diabetic but everything has its point ... so I have encouraged myself to make myself the jams after seeing the high prices of the best and without sugar (in the super, where they are good.Precio, you cannot vary from the plum, strawberries and.
I spend my recipe that is super simple (I hope you like it) ...
Wash, bone and chop a kilo of cherries.Put them in a pot with the juice of a lemon (great), a spoonful of cogñac or whiskey (I use whiskey which is what I have at home), a large piece of the skin of the squeezed lemon, water (which does not reachcover them at all) and sweetener to taste (I have used liquid saccharin to finish what I have ... in next times I will use Stevia).I don't know the amount ... I put and testing the resulting juice ... mmmm.
It is put in the kitchen, in a medium fire but at the maximum power.When the fire begins to boil (without being at the minimum).They are boiled 30 minutes.At 20 minutes a cold water salad bowl is filled and it puts half a package (6 units) of gelatin leaves (putting them one in one) and allowed to soften the soaked gelatin, those 10 minutes that lack cooking.
After the 10 minutes referred, the skin of the lemon is removed from the pot and one by one is drained and the already soft gelatin leaves are incorporated into the pot.It is removed well so that they get rid of and boil for 2 more minutes.
Done this is turned off the fire and let it be warmed (about 30 minutes) and it is crushed a bit with the minipimer.Immediately and before he cools at all and starts thickening the jam, he puts himself in jars.Once cold is stored in a fridge ... I am a jam of jam and two tupper small.I keep the boat in the fridge for consumption and you freely freeze them ...
Enjoy
P.D: You can put the liquor even for children, since alcohol is consumed by leaving the taste.
Ah you can also make more folding the doses of the recipe ...
Trick: Use the remains of the squeezed limon to rub your fingers in the pulp and thus take off the ugly cherry spots ...

I wanted to send you photos but there is no way to upload the files ...
The orange jam I do it. Only but I choose for this medianitas oranges of the juice (which have a lot of juice and little thick and thin skin).I wash them well and make them finite shots (without peeling them).The rest of the recipe is identical ...
Do not crush the fruit much with the minipimer to find fruit pieces ...
Happy "jams".Kisses

I spend three photos: the first is how the jam is (once cold I solidify even more), the second is of the jelly that uses for its elaboration (I bought it in supermarkets day) and the third is how I prepare someSnacks (Bato well in a bowl a skimmed natural yogurt, a couple of teaspoons of jam dessert - in this case of cherries - and three nuts..mmmm a delicacy of gods and very healthy and rich for children !!!).
Kisses and good benefit to all ...
