Chocolate-Covered Cherry Jam with Cocoa

1. 1 Sour cherries≈ $12.00 每千克 400 克
2. 2 Sugar包装 1 千克 约等于 $1.60 350 克
3. 3 Cocoa powder 15 克
4. 4 Vanilla sugar 8 克

灰色的是盐、香料以及每罐用量不足30克的配料：这些家里通常都有，不计入罐子价格。用量30克及以上的糖、醋和油已计入价格。

做法

1. Sort the cherries, wash them, and pit them. Mix the cocoa with 50 g sugar² to prevent lumps.

2. Cover the cherries with the remaining sugar² (300 g) and leave for 3–4 hours.

3. Bring to a boil, skimming off the foam, and cook for 15 minutes. Let cool for 4 hours.

4. For the second boil, add the cocoa-sugar² mixture and vanilla sugar, bring to a boil, and cook for 10 minutes, stirring. Check for doneness: a drop of syrup on a cold saucer holds its shape and does not spread.

5. Sterilize the 0.5 l jar and lid: steam the jar or heat it in the oven at 120 °C for 15 minutes, and boil the lid for 5 minutes.

6. Pour the hot jam into the sterile 0.5 l jar up to the shoulders and seal immediately. Turn the jar upside down, wrap it, and leave to cool for 24 hours.

7. Store in a cool, dark place for up to 12 months, and keep an opened jar in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
