Como fazer Honey Pear Preserves With Ginger
- Peel, core, and slice 2 pounds ripe but firm pears into 1/2-inch thick slices.
- In a large saucepan, combine the pear slices with 1 cup honey, 1/4 cup grated fresh ginger, 1/4 cup lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the pears are tender and the mixture has thickened slightly. Stir frequently during the last 10 minutes to prevent burning.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Taste and adjust sweetness or ginger level as desired.
- Ladle the preserves into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
- Wipe jar rims clean, apply lids and rings, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust processing time based on your altitude).
- Allow jars to cool completely. You should hear a satisfying 'pop' sound as the jars seal.
- Once cooled, store in a cool, dark place for up to a year. Enjoy!
