Mango jam recipe

Heavenly fruity and exotic

In contrast to the classic jams, this mango jam has an exotic taste, similar to my mango lemonade with basil, the pineapple sorbet, the mango sorbet with basil or my tropical fruit salad. It is also heavenly fruity, as it contains three times as much fruit as sugar. Its fine and smooth consistency also makes it an irresistible treat.

Homemade mango jam

Mango jam with agar, pectin or preserving sugar

You can make the mango jam with various vegetable gelling agents, just like the strawberry rhubarb jam or the sour cherry jam. Agar powder, apple pectin and preserving sugar are suitable for this.

Agar

I made the mango jam with agar. I use pure agar powder with gel strength 900 for this, just like for my gummy bears without gelatin or the orange marmalade. Depending on the gelling power of your agar powder, you will need to adjust the amount in the recipe.

Apple pectin

Alternatively, you can make the mango fruit jam with pectin, just like the strawberry jam, the apricot jam and the raspberry jam. Replace the agar powder in my recipe with pectin. You need about 30 grams of pure apple pectin without additives for the quantities mentioned.

Preserving sugar

The mango marmalade can also be made with preserving sugar. In this case, replace the sugar and agar powder in the recipe below with preserving sugar 3:1. For 1.5 kg of mango pulp, you will need 500 g preserving sugar 3:1.

Enjoy and store

The homemade mango jam tastes delicious on freshly baked croissants and fluffy rolls. You can also serve it with pancakes, such as the blini or the oladi.

You can also refine various desserts with the mango fruit jam. For example, you can add it to ice cream, such as the plombir, rice pudding and yogurt.

The mango marmalade is also ideal for filling pastries. Try out my recipe for jam oatmeal bars, among other things.

Store your homemade jam in sealed glass jars in a cool, dark place, for example in the cellar. Once you have opened the jam jar, you should store it in the fridge.
