Step 1
1. In our family, seedless sea buckthorn jam made at home has become a tradition. Moreover, once it was a great help. This berry is beautiful, but it contains very hard, large seeds. Those are what we need to get rid of first. It is not entirely easy, but I will share one secret. The jam should be made from freshly picked sea buckthorn. Wash the berries and let the water drain off, then you will need to press out the juice. I do this with a juicer.

2. Modern hand-held equipment of this type handles this task very well. Add sugar to sea buckthorn juice. Use this ratio: 1.5 kg of sugar per liter of juice.
