Dry jam is candied fruit that is first boiled in syrup, like regular jam, and then dried in the same sweet glaze. The berries remain whole when cooked this way, and the dense skin of the chokeberry is a plus in this case: because of it, the candied fruit does not lose its shape, it turns out smooth and even. Then you can do with it in different ways: add it to cottage cheese or ice cream, decorate cakes and muffins. But the main thing about it is the sweet taste of nostalgia: there is something in this tartare delicacy from the leisurely dacha life that has sunk into oblivion with a blooming garden and tea drinking on the veranda under a large lampshade.

Another life hack: it is worth seasoning the jam with a moderate amount of hot pepper, fried onions and some fragrant spices, like thyme and rosemary, dilute to the desired consistency with broth and boil, you will no longer get a sweetness, but a sweetish tart sauce for meat and poultry with notes of noble port wine.
