Jam "Heart"

Category: Healthy eating

Ingredients
hawthorn	350g
Apple	750g
Melissa	50g
sugar	500g
lemon acid	1/2 tsp

Cooking method

• An aromatic and healthy jam, especially for patients with cardioneurosis and conduction disorders. Certainly not a medicine, but a tasty and healthy treat that can reduce the manifestations of these diseases. Pour the hawthorn with 50 ml of water and heat until softened (I did it in the microwave at full power for 6 minutes under the lid). Wipe through a sieve. In the resulting pitted puree, add the apples, cut into slices (without the core) and sugar. Leave to give juice for 30-40 minutes. Heat to a boil and cook over low heat with continuous stirring without a lid for 25-30 minutes. We wash the melissa and pour over it with boiling water, finely chop and add at the end of cooking along with citric acid. We break it with a blender and put it in sterilized jars. We close it tightly.
• 
• 250g of apple can be replaced with zucchini, then the effectiveness of the jam increases due to the large amount of potassium and fiber. But in this case, the consistency of the jam will be somewhat liquid and to improve the consistency and increase the effectiveness of the jam by reducing the cooking time and introducing an additional amount of pectin (lowering cholesterol level), it is advisable to add 1 packet to the Jellix 1: 2 jam.
• Take 3-4 tbsp. l. 1 time a day (preferably at night) in courses of 14 days or during periods of increased emotional stress with symptoms of arrhythmia, hypertension, tachycardia and insomnia. Take a break for 14-21 days.

Note

Healing properties hawthorn associated with the functions of reducing blood pressure, pulse, strength and amplitude of the heart, but it must be taken with caution and in small doses. Hawthorn fruits help with hypertension, tachycardia, conduction disturbances and cardioneurosis. It is useful at high frequencies, pressures and amplitudes, but harmful at low values. The substances that make up hawthorn not only reduce the excitability of the nervous system, they improve its work, have a tonic effect on the muscles of the heart, improve blood circulation in the vessels of the heart and brain, and stabilize the contractile work of the heart (arrhythmias, tachycardias). Also, the use of hawthorn is high for headaches, allergies, epilepsy. This berry is also useful for thyroid disorders. People with diabetes also praised the benefits of hawthorn as a way to stabilize blood sugar. In addition, hawthorn has a choleretic effect and improves liver function. Hawthorn cures diseases: liver and gallbladder, atherosclerosis, hypertension, rheumatism, headaches and diabetes, tachycardia, edema and the consequences of heart attacks. A good property of fresh fruits of red hawthorn is known for women who for a long time suffered from the fact that the hormonal background led to negative changes (menopausal disorders with insomnia, tachycardia and hypertension).Hawthorn contraindications: - bradycardia, arrhythmia, hypotension and pregnancy, can cause bone and joint problems and reduce calcium absorption. That is why it is necessary to maintain a certain dose of hawthorn consumption and take into account possible side effects.
Apples protect against Alzheimer's disease. New studies in mice show that fresh apple juice protects against brain aging, thereby preventing the onset of Alzheimer's. The benefits of apples for cancer prevention.Scientists from the American Association for the Study of Cancer have concluded that regular consumption of apples can reduce the likelihood of pancreatic cancer by 23%. Scientists at Cornell University have found that apple peels contain compounds that prevent the growth of cancer cells in the liver, breast and colon. The benefits of apples are in protecting against cholesterol. Apples are good for preventing high cholesterol levels. Even if the level is already increased, eating apples leads to a decrease. After all, the soluble fiber contained in apples binds fats in the intestines, which protects against cholesterol and helps to reduce it.
Eating 2 apples a day can quickly lower cholesterol levels by 16%. Apples are good for the heart and blood vessels, because the less cholesterol, the healthier the cardiovascular system. If the blood vessels are clogged with cholesterol, there is a high likelihood of developing coronary heart disease. Apple protects against cholesterol by lowering cholesterol levels. Drinking at least one apple a day protects against gallstones. The main cause of gallstone disease is high cholesterol levels, and apples, as already mentioned, lower cholesterol levels. Only apple contains the flavonoid phloridzin, which increases bone density. And this is very important for women during this period, characterized by the risk of developing osteoporosis. Apples also contain boron, which also strengthens bones. That is why the amount of apple in this recipe is optimized (2-3 times more than the amount of hawthorn, even taking into account the use of zucchini).
When replacing part of the apple with squash you can not only significantly increase the level of potassium (necessary to normalize the heart rhythm) in the product, but also add the amount of fiber that removes excess cholesterol.
Melissa used for stomach diseases, heart neuroses, hypertension, asthma, convulsions, as a tonic. It calms the nervous system, stimulates the appetite, relieves colic caused by gas retention, and stops vomiting. It is also recommended for migraines, insomnia, increased sexual excitability, nervous weakness, painful periods, skin rashes. Indications for the use of lemon balm preparations are neuroses, heart disease, acute and chronic gastrointestinal diseases, inflammatory diseases of the respiratory system, eczema, dermatitis, female diseases, pregnancy toxicosis, immunodeficiency. The leaves and tops of the shoots were used externally for toothache, rheumatism and bruises. In Russia, infusion of herbs in filter bags, as well as foreign drugs "Novo-passit", "Persen" are known.
For a more effective and "tasty" prevention of heart disease, I recommend combining this jam with jam "preventive".

[Lina]

Lina, and how did you rub the bones through a sieve? This is such a sharp-pointed filth.She doesn't want to wipe
Last year I was making purely hawthorn jam - I was exhausted, and so that once again I would rub my bones through a sieve .... not in a zhist It's like blaming the bones from a rosehip - horror!

Lina, THANKS for the healthy jam recipe

Tanya, ooooooo grateful to you for your assessment!
Here the bones are not needed at all, so I spent time, but I'm happy with the result. It wipes well through a metal mesh. That is why hawthorn is 350g, because 100g of this goes to the bones. And in the case of hawthorn, the dose is important. Everything is measured and checked repeatedly in order to publish a verified recipe based on their knowledge and certificates.

[Lina]

Lina, a much needed healing recipe. I don't have a hawthorn, but I have a manual device for wiping. Maybe they sell hawthorns on the market. Very colorfully decorated.

[Alla]

Alla, I have huge hawthorn trees in the forest right next to the dacha. It is tasty and so, and also healthy.

That is why hawthorn is 350g, because 100g of this goes to the bones.

Yes, there are a lot of seeds in the berries, and everything is like a selection of a triangular shape, with sharp corners, and besides, I had to wipe as much as two kg of hawthorn

as much as two kg of hawthorn

Feat!

[Lina]

Lina, you live in a magical place, everything grows.

[Linadoc]

Linadoc, Lina, thank you for the recipe! I ask the hawthorn, maybe I can get it, then I will accomplish the feat.

[Tanechka]

I made pure hawthorn jam

Tanechka, can I have a recipe?

Yesterday we were treated to two kilograms of hawthorn ...

Last year I covered the berries with sugar and kept the preparation in the refrigerator), this year, alas, there is no place left for hawthorn in the refrigerator ...

Linochka, a very interesting recipe !!!

I will definitely try !!!

Thank you very much !!!

Linochka, please tell me, how much can you consume fresh hawthorn?

Calmly 10-15 berries per day can be.

So little ? Just ?

Too bad ... it tastes so good ...

We'll have to beat ourselves on the hands ...

Thank you, Linochka !!!

How long can you keep fresh hawthorn in the refrigerator, I wonder?

Linochka, do you harvest anything else from hawthorn?

fresh hawthorn in the refrigerator

In the coldest place a week can be. Can be frozen altogether.

do you harvest anything else from hawthorn

I turn it through a meat grinder with an apple and dry these granules. Then you can brew a teaspoon overnight.

I turn it through a meat grinder

Straight with bones ?!

[Linadoc]

I turn it through a meat grinder with an apple and dry these granules. Then you can brew a teaspoon overnight.

Class !!!
Linadoc, the recipe is very tempting with its healing and uniqueness, great!

Straight with bones

Aha! I'm not going to eat it in this version. Therefore, it makes no difference. I brew a spoonful of granules right with tea and that's it.

[Lina,]

Lina, in the fall I bought 2 kg of large hawthorn at the bazaar and peeled it off. I began to grind in a blender, but the high density of the berries did not allow me to do it. Then I collected the raspberries and added them to the hawthorn and chopped them normally. Knowing the total weight of the peeled hawthorn and raspberries, I mixed the resulting mass with the same amount of sugar. I made cold jam and put it in the refrigerator. I liked very much both as a jam, and as a drink (just put and stir in water), and add milk to cocktails, and as support for the heart.
Thanks for the jam and tea granules!

[Elena]

I made cold jam and put it in the refrigerator.

Elena, an interesting option. The only thing is that I always have no place in the refrigerator, so I can preserve everything on the balcony or in the cellar.In any case, I'm glad that the recipe came up

[Lina,]

Lina, I also have a lot in the cellar, but I put this blank option on purpose, so to speak. To always have a Plus at hand, the family is very fond of pancakes, so most of the cold jam is always in the refrigerator (for every taste).
I will definitely make granules for tea in the fall!

What is the best way to add dry lemon balm? What part are leaves, there are flowers.

[lily]

lily, add dry lemon balm 7-10 minutes before the end of cooking, leaves. But fresh food is tastier and healthier. In dry, almost all essential oils have already weathered. By the way, you can make up for this by adding a couple of drops of pure lemon balm essential oil to the hot jam at the very end of cooking.

I report: Hawthorn was collected 210g. The puree came out 102g, the hawthorn was about the size of a pea, ripe. Bes on demand added 200g of cranberries (it was frozen). I decided to add 4 strawberry leaves to the lemon balm leaves, chopped it with a blender. In general, the jam turned out to be renal-cardiac.
And delicious! Very aromatic!

[lily]

lily, well, it's great that everything worked out! Adjust for yourself and your desires!

I sit thinking where else to get hawthorn. The taste of the puree surprised me. They sell 50 rubles for 200g - a little expensive for me for 100g of puree. Melissa is felt.It turned out two cans of 0.5 each and a vase to try. I tried it. I decided to eat one 0.5 now.

[Linadoc]

I bought a kilogram of hawthorn, I wanted to make this jam. But there was no lemon balm on the market. Only mint
Linadoc, what do you recommend: to do with fresh mint or with last year's dry lemon balm?

Added Sunday 18 Sep 2016 02:17 PM

The question was resolved. We went to a big market and bought lemon balm. I will cook a double portion.

Melissa is better. But if the question is dry grass or fresh, then definitely fresh!

[Linadoc]

Linadoc, thanks for the answer. I still got some fresh lemon balm, but suddenly, who will need reflections on whether dry lemon balm or live mint is better.

Better live melissa

Added Sunday 18 Sep 2016 11:18 PM

Well, I'm with a report. I made a double portion of this drug. I got 4 jars of 0.4 and one 0.35, and here's another, lick the cup.
The taste is unusual, but very attractive.
But to separate the hawthorn from the seeds, this, I will report to you, is a pleasure for those who have comprehended Zen and gone into nirvana
And thanks again to Linadoc for the heart jam

[Elena]

Elena, glad that you have comprehended Zen! Come back from nirvana, we need you here! Cook for health!

Found hawthorn and fresh lemon balm. I'm going to repeat the double portion.
Two questions; Is 750g apples net weight? can apples be replaced with a pear (mushroom wild - fresh knits and not very good, good for cooking and candied fruits)?

[lily]

lily, yes, the net weight of apples already prepared and cut. You can replace it with a pear or plum, and even a cherry.

[Linochka,]

... I turn it (hawthorn) through a meat grinder with an apple and dry these granules. Then you can brew a teaspoon overnight.

Linochka, , tell me, please, what weight of apples do you take for 1 kg of hawthorn? Or by eye, so that the hawthorn berries twist more easily? There is no dryer, really, I will dry it in a gas oven. Or is it better to make "Heart Jam", 2 kg of hawthorn are waiting for me in the fridge.

how much apples do you take for 1 kg of hawthorn?

Flax, usually 1: 1, but approximately. Although I like jam more, but if it’s lazy or too busy, then you can spin the granules.

[Lina,]

Lina, thanks a lot for the clarification! The hawthorn is still on sale, so I'll make the jam first, and then I'll wind up some granules. If I cleaned 2 kg of fresh large-fruited hawthorn in one day in 2015, then grind it after heat treatment .. nonsense!

grind it after heat treatment .. nonsense!

Well, not nonsense, but it's much easier than peeling fresh from the bones

[Lina]

I am reporting. I made 5.720 jam (part of the photo), I think that's enough for the winter and spring. I also managed to taste a small residue, which I liked very much both for its taste and smell. True, I decided not to break everything into a homogeneous mass with a blender, left small pieces of apples. I regretted the blender, so when I broke 2 kg of hawthorn and 4 kg of apples, it became hot. Thank you so much, Lina!
They are still waiting for 2 kg of large-fruited, while I think what to do with it. There are not enough raspberries this year, it will not work to make "cold jam" a mix.

[Elena]

Elena, oooooo! Super! Beauty and benefit! Cook for health!

[Linadoc]

Linadoc, I have a question about tea granules. isn't it just mashed potatoes by twisting apples and hawthorns?
this recipe is very interesting to me

isn't it just mashed potatoes by twisting apples and hawthorns?

Try it, only through a large grate, you get such granules, crumbly. Put on a baking sheet on paper or directly into the dryer and dry.

[Linadoc]

Linadoc, got it. Thank you!

[Lina,]

Lina, I did not get either granules or crumbs from large hawthorn and apple. Mashed potatoes and that's it ... it's good that I cleaned 300 grams of apples and mixed them with the same amount of hawthorn, and my son began to twist it on a coarse mesh. I had to urgently decide how to bring 2 kg of hawthorn to mind.There were apple leaves with rose petals in the freezer, but I was sorry to add them to the hawthorn to remove the mashed potatoes while rolling. The hawthorn would fill the rose petals with its taste and smell. Even in the freezer, about 500 grams of wild-pear leaves were lying around and everything was twisted in a mixture with them. The result is 2 baking sheets, ready-made 730 gr. In winter I will brew these granules, add to tea from mixes of leaves.
Thank you very much for the medicinal granules!

Oh, well thought out! And everything turned out fine for me, well, not dry granules, but not mashed potatoes either. Apparently it depends on apples. My apples are still unripe, so everything is spinning great. But your version is super!

[Linochka]

Thank you, Linochka! To the maximum it turned out to make a mix of Rosaceae.

I also did not get the granules. there was mashed potatoes, but it's so dense! tough I would say)))
but I put it on the dryer with a spoon and leveled it. of course no kind))
I also thought to make tea with leaves) probably with raspberries - I only have no problems with them with raw materials)))
otherwise I have a lot of hawthorn. brother allowed all their tree to be robbed)

[Lina,]

Lina, I have already done a report with photographs on jam before. And today I opened a jar, yes with cottage cheese, a drink with chicory and milk. This is something! I have never eaten such a delicious medicine for the heart, never taken in my life. And what is the smell of lemon balm when I opened the jar. Well, almost like a fresh summer.
Thank you very much for your advice, for maintaining health and for such a delicious and beautiful jam medicine.

[Lina,]

Lina, I did not get either granules or crumbs from large hawthorn and apple. Mashed potatoes and that's it ... it's good that I cleaned 300 grams of apples and mixed them with the same amount of hawthorn, and my son began to twist it on a coarse mesh. I had to urgently decide how to bring 2 kg of hawthorn to mind. About 500 grams of wild-pear leaves were scattered in the freezer and everything was twisted in a mixture with them. The result is 2 baking sheets, ready-made 730 gr. In winter, I will brew these granules, add to tea from mixes of leaves.
Thank you very much for the healing granules!

Lina, Thanks again for the hawthorn pellets! The time of dry fermentation has passed and this mix now has such a smell, just a fairy tale! The taste of sour tea turns out, the pear gives the color, the apple is slightly felt and such usefulness. I like to drink without adding tea mixes from the leaves. Every day I drink and get a piece of health and pleasure. Granules, of course, did not turn out beautiful, they look more like pieces and smaller france. But this is not the main thing.
