Homemade marmalade with agar agar, benefits and harms

Contraindications and harm

Marmalade containing natural ingredients is not harmful.

It is contraindicated:

  • in large quantities,
  • people who are overweight;
  • those who are diagnosed with diabetes mellitus;
  • those who have an acute phase of pancreatitis, gastritis, ulcers.

But a product that contains artificial flavors, thickeners, dyes, pectin and other ingredients of chemical origin is harmful to the body and has a number of contraindications.


It should not be eaten:

  • people who have problems with the gastrointestinal tract, liver;
  • children under 3 years old;
  • pregnant women;
  • women who are in the period of lactation.

As a result of eating this sweetness, a person may experience:

  • allergic reactions;
  • gastrointestinal disorders;
  • caries and other dental diseases;
  • swelling.

Some chemical additives, for example, E 102, E122, can cause hyperactivity in children.

To prevent marmalade from causing harm to health, it can be consumed occasionally and no more than 50 g per day. More than 4 g of agar-agar per day provokes the development of diarrhea and disruption of the bacterial balance in the intestines. It is recommended not to exceed the norm for eating carnauba wax - 7 g per day.

Important! Signs of high-quality marmalade are: transparency, dull color, neutral smell, not cloying, slightly sour taste, good shape retention, clear separation of layers, no crunch when breaking, absence of starch, dyes, flavors, and chemical additives.

So, natural marmalade containing pectin and fruit juice has a beneficial effect on the body, cleansing it, increasing the protective functions of the immune system, improving digestion - but a product that contains artificial ingredients can be harmful to it. When choosing a treat, you should make it a rule: the shorter the list of ingredients, the safer it is. It is also desirable that the substances in the composition are mostly natural.

Making delicious, homemade strawberry jam is not difficult if you follow the instructions. Below is a simple recipe for making strawberry jam at home.

A simple recipe for strawberry jam for the winter

Ingredients:

  • Strawberries – 1 kg;
  • Granulated sugar – 800 g;
  • Lemon juice – 40 ml.

Preparation:

  1. Strawberries need to be washed thoroughly and sorted. All spoiled, with bugs or dry, are removed from the common bowl. They are not suitable for making jam.
  2. Now the berries need to be poured into a common container and pureed using a blender. If you don’t have one, you can use a meat grinder, a puree masher, or even a regular fork.
  3. To ensure that the jam is homogeneous, it is filtered through a sieve. This is an optional procedure. On the contrary, many people like it when they come across small pieces of strawberries in jam.
  4. Place the strawberry puree on the stove, add sugar and cook after boiling for 5 minutes.

Important!

If the surface of the jam has become smooth, shiny, and almost no bubbles rise, this means that it is ready and you can turn off the heat.

  1. After the specified time, lemon juice is added to the jam. Continue cooking the jam for another 20 minutes over medium or low heat.
  2. The finished dish is poured into sterile jars and rolled up. In order for the jam to be stored for a long time, it must be placed under a towel overnight (the jars are turned upside down) and only after a day can the preservation be transferred to the pantry.

This recipe can be considered classic. The dish is prepared simply, quickly, with a minimum of ingredients. Even lemon juice can be replaced with citric acid if desired. If you have no experience in making jam, you should try this recipe first, and then experiment with adding other ingredients.

What are the benefits of candy? — Dr. Komarovsky

Chewing dessert is no less useful. It strengthens the gums and prevents their bleeding, and the beeswax in its composition effectively fights various bacteria and disinfects.

Homemade marmalade with agar agar

  • Mix agar agar with cherry, orange juice or water at room temperature until smooth. Leave for 10-20 minutes. A small digression about orange juice. Many recipes recommend diluting agar agar with orange juice, as it neutralizes the characteristic “marine” taste of agar agar. I partly agree with this, but note that this “works” well for fruits and berries without a pronounced taste and aroma (for example, apples, cherries or gooseberries). Cherries, currants, raspberries work great without orange. Orange juice and zest will certainly decorate our marmalade, but will also increase our production costs :). The most important thing is to maintain the correct amount of agar in the recipe.
  • Mix cherry juice with sugar, put on fire and bring to a boil, add vanillin and agar agar diluted in juice or water.
  • Bring everything back to a boil and simmer over low heat for 1-2 minutes (no more!). We get in the way all the time!
  • Turn off the heat, let the mixture cool slightly and pour into a silicone mold, glass bowl or small molds, as you like. I like best to pour the marmalade into a silicone baking dish. The layer thickness is 1.5-2 cm. There is no need to lubricate the mold with anything. Leave until completely hardened. This won't take long, but it's important that the marmalade cools completely, otherwise it might break when trying to remove it from the mold. Once cooled, it comes out perfectly and does not break.
  • Homemade marmalade is ready! It is good and tasty on its own. But there is no limit to perfection, in some batches (and I have made it many times :)), I added heat-resistant chocolate drops directly to the hot mixture, before pouring it into the mold. It turned out well, the kids really liked it.
  • I also had confectionery topping in the form of very small dragees - it also turned out very tasty and beautiful. You can dip the marmalade in sugar and leave to dry a little at room temperature. You don't have to sprinkle anything at all. I cut the marmalade into wavy slices using a cheese knife. Most of our marmalade was eaten in this form
  • Homemade marmalade is prepared quickly and very simply. For me, having cherry juice after preparing dried cherries, everything became ridiculously simple. I take a jar of ready-made juice with sugar, dilute it with a small amount for 1 hour. l agar agar, bring the rest to a boil, add vanillin and agar agar. I pour it into molds - that's it - 1 kg of delicious homemade natural marmalade is ready. Do you think 1 kg of marmalade is a lot, my sweet tooth doesn’t think so
  • Try it, I’ll be glad if my successful and unsuccessful experiences are useful to someone. By the way, the taste of this marmalade differs from the usual “store-bought” one; it does not have “stringiness”, but rather resembles candied “orange slices”. They say that if you add more sugar and leave the marmalade to dry for a week, it will stretch. I don’t know, our marmalade is eaten quickly and simply doesn’t last long enough to become “sticky”.

  • To determine the readiness of the marmalade, you need to drop the sweet mass onto a spoon placed in the freezer. If after half a minute it becomes thick, the marmalade is ready.

If the marmalade does not thicken, there may be several reasons:

  1. Store-bought pectin is of poor quality.
  2. Marmalade contains little citric acid.
  3. The required temperature could not be reached.

In this case, the mixture is boiled further and more citric acid is added. It is advisable to place the marmalade in a silicone mold. You need to wait until it cools down completely, and then the sweetness is served. If desired, sprinkle the marmalade with powdered sugar or simply roll it in sugar.

  • Now you need to start heating the puree. When the temperature reaches 40 degrees, add pectin and increase the heat slightly.
  • When the mixture begins to boil, add the remaining sugar with glucose syrup.
  • To prevent burning, stir everything. When the temperature reaches 110 degrees, remove the pan from the heat and add a solution of citric acid. Mix everything thoroughly.
  • The marmalade is poured into molds and refrigerated for 3 hours. The finished sweet is rolled in sugar.

For example, 100 g (half a glass) of a product, which includes 3 apples, 1 tablespoon of gelatin or pectin, and a little cinnamon, will contain 60 kcal. From 300 g of pineapple and 20 g of gelatin you will get marmalade with a calorie content of 65 kcal.

Did you know? The word “marmalade” is derived from the ancient Greek words “memelemenos” - diligently, carefully, and “melops” - having the color of an apple.
The first marmalade was prepared in the Middle East and Eastern Mediterranean to preserve large harvests of apples, quinces and other fruits that contain pectin and can harden to a dense mass when cooked.

When can you give marmalade to a child?

When deciding at what age you can start treating your child to dessert, parents should remember that this industrially produced product contains a huge amount of sugar, dyes, preservatives and other synthetic substances. Therefore, such a treat should not be given to a baby under 12 months.

When and how can you give your child marmalade:

  1. Treats, even natural ones, should not be included in the first complementary foods. Feed your baby sweet treats after 1 year of age.
  2. Chewable sweets are allowed only when the child is over 18-24 months old.
  3. Complementary foods with dessert should be given to the child after meals, in small dosages and not every day. 1-2 times a week is enough.

When introducing sweets into complementary foods, parents need to carefully monitor the child’s well-being and behavior for 2-3 days. If he feels well and there are no symptoms of food allergies, the amount of sweet product can be increased slightly.

Possible harm and contraindications

Marmalade should not be included in the children's menu if the child has diabetes or diseases of the digestive system. Also, the possibility of an allergic reaction or intolerance to the natural product cannot be ruled out.

They are manifested by skin rashes and redness, stool upset, and increased body temperature. In such cases, the treat must be completely excluded from the child’s diet.

Features of choosing a natural treat

To ensure that a sweet dessert does not harm the child’s health, it must be chosen correctly. What to look for when buying baby marmalade:

  • the dessert should not have a too bright and saturated color - this indicates the use of cheap dyes;
  • the natural product has a dull color with a honey tint, most often it comes in the form of plates;
  • a high-quality delicacy should have a neat, clear shape without any dents or deformations;
  • carefully study the composition of the product indicated by the manufacturer - it should not contain preservatives, flavors, dyes, emulsifiers and other chemical additives;
  • This dessert is elastic; when pressed, it quickly returns to its original shape.

The most useful and natural is the plastic product (recipe below). It is prepared according to a classic recipe from a minimum amount of ingredients. The composition of the plastic delicacy includes only fruit or berry mass, which is boiled with the addition of sugar. Sometimes pectin can be used as an additional thickener. This dessert does not look as beautiful as other types of delicacy, but its benefits are undeniable.

The healthiest and safest for a child from 12 months is a homemade dessert that you can easily prepare yourself.

Advice from experienced pp specialists

To ensure that marmalade at home with agar-agar always turns out as in the photo from magazines or websites, no matter what recipe you choose, follow the advice of experienced chefs:

  • Read the instructions on the agar packet carefully. The proportions of water and substance will differ from manufacturer to manufacturer.
  • Dissolving the gelling agent in water, bring the mixture to a boil. If there is juice instead of water, you can simply warm it up to 60-70 degrees.
  • You need to add a little more agar to acidic juices than to water.
  • Agar-agar is sold in the form of powder, plates, and flakes. High quality, highly purified and has no odor. Agar, which is slightly cheaper, may smell like algae.
  • When preparing marmalade, cooks recommend diluting the gelling powder in orange juice in order to remove the smell of iodine and algae. Juices of aromatic berries: strawberries, cherries, raspberries cope with this problem on their own. If you are making marmalade from apples or pears, it is better to use orange juice.
  • It is better to store the finished marmalade in the refrigerator, in a container with a lid. There are no preservatives in homemade dessert, which means the product is perishable.

Marmalade without thickener

Marmalade at home without the use of a thickener is prepared from fruits and berries.

Ingredients:

  • The plums are washed, cut in half and the bones are removed. Using a meat grinder, fruits are turned into puree. Add sugar and mix well. There is no need to add water, since rolled plums are juicy and sugar will dissolve in them without any problems.
  • Bring everything to a boil and simmer over low heat. For the first 30 minutes you need to stir the plums every 5 minutes, then continuously for an hour. The water will evaporate, the plums will thicken, and if this is not done, they will splash. Stir until a dry path appears at the bottom. As a rule, this takes up to 2 hours.
  • The mold is covered with parchment paper and hot marmalade is poured onto it. The thickness of the marmalade is up to 10 mm.

  • The mixture is put on fire and begins to evaporate for about 1.5 hours over low heat. Stir the puree constantly with a wooden spoon so that it does not stick to the bottom of the pan.
  • When the puree begins to thicken, check it for readiness. To do this, you need to drop a couple of drops onto a spoon and see if the mixture becomes elastic. The marmalade is ready when the mixture begins to harden.

The finished marmalade should be stored in a hermetically sealed container in the refrigerator or just a cool place. Homemade marmalade made from pears is tasty and aromatic.

How to make a healthy dessert

Have you never made such a delicious dish before and have no idea how to make marmalade with agar-agar at home? Believe me, it's nothing complicated!

To ensure that homemade marmalade contains only healthy products, we take juices or purees from fresh or frozen berries, fruits, natural ingredients and a gelling agent.

In these recipes it will be agar-agar, which is industrially extracted from algae (brown and red).

There will be no dyes or flavors in our pp marmalade.

We won't add sugar to it.

We will try to preserve the vitamins, aroma, and taste of all products as much as possible.

Why will we make marmalade on agar: what are its benefits and is there any harm? Why not gelatin? Yes, because agar, although it costs more than gelatin or pectin, is much more convenient to work with:

  • hardens faster, even just on the table;
  • gives a denser consistency to gummies;
  • no calories at all.

Agar enhances intestinal motility, gently cleanses it, helps the liver function and enriches the diet with iodine. But you shouldn’t overeat this delicious, tempting dessert either. Everything is good in moderation!

By the way, there is a recipe for curd desserts with agar.

Marmalade "Coffee with cream"

This recipe is for those who like to tinker for the sake of aesthetics.

And of course, it will be appreciated by coffee lovers.

By the way, it is precisely because of the coffee that such marmalade cannot be called ideally made, but we will take a high-quality one - brewed in an espresso machine or a Turk.

Calorie content 100 g - 26 kcal, bju - 1.3 g protein, 0 g fat, 4.3 g carbohydrates.

What we need:

  • 200 ml brewed coffee
  • stevia - 0.5 tsp.
  • skim milk - 200 ml
  • vanillin - on the tip of a knife
  • agar - 1.5 tsp.

How to do:

  1. Dissolve half stevia and half agar-agar in hot coffee. We do the same with milk, adding vanillin.
  2. Now the most difficult thing, if we want to get marmalade like in the photo, is not to let the liquids harden ahead of time.
