Step 4
Boil the jam for 15–20 minutes after it comes to a boil. Add the vanilla about 5 minutes before the end of cooking. You can cook it in two stages. The first time, boil the jam for about 5 minutes and let it stand for about 6 hours; the second time, simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes. Pour the finished jam into dry sterilized jars and wait for winter.
