Dulce de mango.🥭

Ingredients

• 3 pieces Mango (ripe but not overly sour, peeled and cut into chunks)
• 2 cups Water (for boiling and blending)
• 1 piece Cinnamon Stick (adds warm flavor, remove after boiling)
• 3 pieces Whole Cloves (infuse the cooking liquid, discard after boiling)
• 2 cups Granulated Sugar (adjust to desired sweetness)
• 1 pinch Salt (balances the sweetness)

Instructions

1. Prepare mangoes

   Peel the mangoes, remove the pits and cut the flesh into bite‑size chunks.

   Time: PT10M

2. Boil mangoes with spices

   Place the mango chunks in a large pot with 2 cups of water, the cinnamon stick, and the whole cloves. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 10‑15 minutes until the mango is very soft.

   Time: PT15M

   Temperature: 100°C

3. Cool slightly

   Remove the pot from heat, discard the cinnamon stick and cloves, and let the mixture cool for about 5 minutes.

   Time: PT5M

4. Blend mango mixture

   Transfer the warm mango‑water mixture to a blender and blend until completely smooth.

   Time: PT5M

5. Strain the puree

   Pour the blended puree through a fine mesh strainer back into a clean pot, using the back of a spoon to press out as much liquid as possible.

   Time: PT5M

6. Add sugar and salt, bring to simmer

   Stir in 2 cups of granulated sugar and a pinch of salt. Place the pot over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: 90°C

7. Cook until thickened

   Continue to cook, stirring frequently, for 15‑20 minutes until the mixture coats the back of a spoon and pulls away from the sides of the pot (jam consistency).

   Time: PT20M

   Temperature: 95°C

8. Test jam consistency

   Drop a small spoonful onto a cold plate; if it gels and doesn’t run, the jam is ready.

   Time: PT1M

9. Transfer to dish and cool

   Pour the hot jam into a glass baking dish, smooth the surface with a spatula, and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

   Time: PT5M

10. Refrigerate

    Place the cooled jam in the refrigerator. It will set further and can be served chilled.
