To prepare apricot jam for the winter, sort out the fruits, remove the spoiled ones, those that are too soft and those that are too hard. Place the apricots in a bowl of cold water and leave for 5 minutes. Then rinse and place in a colander. Transfer the apricots to a towel and let dry completely.
Cut the apricots in half and remove the pits. Now weigh the fruits and measure out the required amount. Place the apricots in a jam bowl or wide saucepan, cover with sugar and leave for 12 hours until the apricots release their juice.
Pour water into the apricots, stir and place over medium heat. Stir gently with a wooden spoon so that the sugar heats evenly and does not burn.
When all the sugar has dissolved, bring the syrup to a boil. Reduce the heat slightly - the syrup should not boil too much. Start skimming, otherwise you won't get a clear syrup.
Cook the jam at a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, for 45-50 minutes. Check the readiness of the jam: drop a drop of syrup on the saucer, leave for 1 minute, and then turn the saucer in different directions. If the jam is ready, the drop will not spread.
Remove the jam from the heat, cover with a towel or gauze and cool completely. Transfer the cooled jam into clean, dry jars and close the lids. Store at room temperature.
