Apple jam is a delicate and aromatic treat that has held a special place in Russian cuisine for centuries. Its history dates back to ancient times when housewives sought to preserve the abundance of apples for the long winter months. The thick, velvety texture and rich fruity flavor make it an ideal addition to pancakes, toast, and even pies. The sweetness of sugar harmonizes with the slight tartness of apples, creating an amazingly balanced taste. Jam spreads easily on bread, is great for baking, and serves as a wonderful filling for desserts. This recipe is simple: apples are peeled, boiled in water, then pureed until smooth and cooked down with sugar. The result is a thick, aromatic mass that becomes indispensable in home menus.
