Kiwi marmelade

After yet another round of cold for the whole family, we are back on track!! I have actually finished knitting a hat, which is still waiting to be photographed though and I have made my first homemade jam! When shopping the other day I found some overdone kiwis that I bought and made jam. Easier than I thought, and the result was good! Here comes the recipie:

Kiwi marmelade
1 kg kiwi
0.9 kg sugar
1 lemon (optional)

Peel kiwis and cut in small pieces. Put in big jar and add the sugar. Add the peel of the lemon and its juice. Let the seeds of the lemon be added as well, since they contain pectin which will help to gelify your jam. Leave for 3h. Put in cooking pot and boil slowly for 1,5h. Boil your glass jars so that they will be "sterilized". Pour jam and close immediately. Good luck!
