What is Fík jelly?

jelly is a form of fig preservation made of fresh fig juice. The jelly figure is clear, with a smooth texture that makes it easier to use as a spread on different foods. Like other jelly, the jelly has a smaller nutritional value of the fruit from which it is made because it does not include the entire fruit, but even the texture makes it easier. Some shops sell fick jelly and can also be made at home in regions where people have access to fresh fig. The jelly color may vary depending on the type of figs used, so it can be green, red or brown.

The component that causes jelly and jams to reinforce is a pectin, a substance that is naturally found in fruit. In the case of jelly, a large part of the natural pectin is left in a solid substance, so that the mere canning of the liquid will lead to a canned liquid. After re -heating the cook mustI add pectin to the liquid and then can freshly re -release a figure in sterile containers, where it is slowly set to form jelly.

Canning can be complicated. If the vessels are not sterile or are not properly sealed, they can become bacteria breeding that will make the food inside dangerous. Sometimes spoiled canned goods are easy to identify due to strange odor or color. In other cases, food may look absolutely safe, but it can be quite dangerous. For example, food stunned by botulism is indistinguishable from ordinary canned goods.

When the chefs produce a fick jelly for home canning, they must use a canning bath to keep containers for canned food and the jelly mixture must also be brought to a boil to prevent bacteria from immediately poured into hot containers and sealed. If the seal is “taken”, it will invert slightly. Incorrectly closedThe stained containers will have lids that are expanding; These containers must be emptied, restilized and re -closing a freshly heated fig.
