The ingredients for the rhubarb jam with vanilla

I would like to say a few words about the ingredients. Because that makes the rhubarb spread really fruity fresh.

Rhubarb in the jam

You do not peel the rhubarb itself. Just cut off the ends. If you like it really pink, use only the red stalks. You can put the greens aside and make a compote out of them later.

Of course, you can also peel the stalks for the rhubarb jam. But this also means that the color is lost. However, this makes no difference to the taste. You can handle it as you like.

Apple juice in the rhubarb jam

To make it nice and spreadable, the jam needs at least a little liquid. It's especially delicious with apple juice.

We take for it naturally cloudy apple juice without sugar or additives in organic quality. Apple juice gives the Rhubarb jam a natural sweetness. So we need less sugar.

Vanilla in the jam with rhubarb

Vanilla :) Yummy! We put a vanilla bean in the recipe. This tastes much better than vanilla extract and at the same time is much more natural.

In addition, the small black dot one of the pink rhubarb jam also look visually really nice. Who would not like to use a pod or has hand, of course, can also make extract in the rhubarb jam with vanilla.

Strawberries in fruit jelly

Rhubarb and strawberries are an unbeatable combination. You can use this recipe for Rhubarb jam with vanilla prepare with or without strawberries. We opted for a few red fruits in it, because it just looks visually even better.

Birch sugar (xylitol, xucker) in the jam

This type of sugar has the advantage that it does not attack the teeth. So tooth decay doesn't stand a chance. In addition has Birch sugar* less calories and is therefore considered healthier. Xucker is now also available with a gelling aid. Perfect for a delicious jam with Birch sugar* :)

How long the shelf life of homemade rhubarb jelly

That depends entirely on you. In principle, jams last up to a year without any problems. The prerequisite is that the jar was cleaned properly.

Wash the jars and lids with very hot water. Or better yet, bring them to a boil in a pot of hot water.

This way you'll kill off any bacteria that can cause your fruit puree to mold.

Just as well you can disinfect the jars in the oven. Before doing so, wash the jars thoroughly and dry them well.

Then they go into the oven for 15 minutes at 120 °. The lids or rubber seals simply boil in hot water for about 5 minutes.

Fill the boiling jam. Immediately close the jars and turn them upside down.

But storage also affects the shelf life of rhubarb jam. It likes it dark and cool. So store either in the cellar or in the refrigerator.
