Ingredients
3.5 kilograms apricots, washed and pitted
500 grams sugar (adjust based on the sweetness of the apricots)
1 liter of water
Juice of half a lemon
Instructions
Prepare the Apricots:
Wash the 3.5 kg of apricots thoroughly and remove the seeds.
Place all the apricots in a large bowl.
Cook the Apricots:
Add 500 g of sugar to the apricots. (Adjust the sugar according to the ripeness of the apricots and personal taste.)
Pour 1 liter of water and add the juice of half a lemon.
Bring everything to a boil and let it cook for about 30 minutes.
Blend the Mixture:
After cooking, use a blender to process the mixture until it becomes a smooth paste.
Strain the Mixture:
Pass the mixture through a strainer to remove any remaining water or pulp, achieving a fine consistency.
Sterilize the Jars:
If you want to store the soup for a longer period, sterilize your jars by placing them in the oven for 15 minutes at 150°C.
Store the Soup:
Pour the hot apricot mixture into the sterilized jars while still hot.
Close the jars tightly with lids. Press your finger on the lid, and if you hear a popping sound, it means the jar is sealed. If the lid does not return to its original shape when pressed, the jar is sealed properly.
Let the jars sit for about 1-2 hours to ensure they are properly sealed.
