Ingredients
- 6 medium lemons (approximately 1 kilo, 35 oz)
- 6 tablespoons monk fruit or stevia blend sweetener
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 30g (1 oz) gelatin
- 300 ml (10 fl oz) water
Procedure
- A night before wash the lemons, dry them and freeze them
- When the lemons are frozen they will keep all the vitamins and they will be easier to peel using a vegetable peeler or a sharp knife. Peel them unless you don’t mind the bitter aftertaste. You can also just grate some of the lemon zest and use to your liking.
- Add gelatine, salt and sweetener to the water and mix well. Heat it till the gelatine melts but don’t let it boil. Set it aside.
- Cut the frozen lemons into small cubes and blend them in a blender or a food processor.
- In a large ceramic bowl (don’t use metallic this time) mix the lemon paste with gelatine mixture.
- Transfer the jam in clean glass jars and seal well. The jam will need some time to get firm and thick so keep it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before using.
