Mango Jam Recipe without pectin | Homemade Mango Jam

Mango Jam Recipe without pectin | Homemade Mango Jam with stepwise pics and a short YouTube video. A super yummy, delicious jam with just 3 ingredients and that too without any preservative, essence, food colour etc. I used Alphonsa mangoes, but you can use other sweet varieties like Banganapalli, Imam pasand also. Furthermore, use bright coloured, ripe mangoes with pleasant smell and ensure there is no fibre, else small hair like strands will be there, which will be disgusting while eating. As it is pectin free (preservative), it stays good for 2 to 3 months only under refrigeration but the addition of lemon juice is very important, for safe canning and to prevent the growth of bacteria.

Recipe Notes

Tips for Mango Jam Recipe without Pectin

1. Select bright yellow coloured, sweet mango varieties like Alphonsa, Banganapalli, Imam Pasand etc for a bright coloured and tasty jam.
2. Also, use fibreless and ripe mango with a pleasant smell, which adds nice flavour for this Homemade Mango Jam.
3. If preferred bite-sized mango pieces can be added or grind the mango roughly.
4. Use heavy bottomed vessel, else the jam gets burnt at the bottom.
5. Adjust sugar as per your taste and ripeness of the Mango.
6. If preferred, 2 drops of Mango Essence or Yellow Food colour can be added for a nice flavour and vibrant colour. But I didn't use any.
7. Don't add lemon juice more than the mentioned quantity, else the jam tastes tangy.
8. Always store the jam in a dry and clean container. Also, use a dry spoon each time as it increases the shelf life. That is, the container should be fully sterilized.
9. The shelf life of this jam is  2 to 3 months under refrigeration, not more as we don't use any preservatives.
10. Also bring the jam to room temperature before use, as it thickens slightly under refrigeration.
