LABORATORY
EXPERIMENT
I. OBJECTIVE
1. To learn how to make a jam.
2. To be able to make a delicious cucumber jam.
3. To be able to prepare a homemade jam for family.
4. To determine the sequence on how to make jam.

II. INTRODUCTION
Fruits preserve such as jam are mixture fruits and sugar which have been boiled to
produce a stable gel structure with attractive visual and eating quality and long storage
life. Jam do not hold their shape but are spreadable. In jam production, fruits are always
used as main composition. Therefore, before the jam making processing started,
selection of fruits is very important way need to consider. It is because good fruits
always give a good and best quality of jam. Fresh fruits generally give the best jam
product. The fruits must be used in fresh condition and should be at correct ripeness.
Over ripe should not be used as they produce a pasty product.
Cucumbers are popular long, lean, and green garden vegetables. The cucumber
is a creeping vine that roots in the ground and grows up trellises or other supporting
frames, wrapping around supports with thin, spiraling tendrils. The plant may also root in
a soilless medium, whereby it will sprawl along the ground in lieu of a supporting
structure. The vine has large leaves that form a canopy over the fruits

III. PROCEDURE
Materials:
- Cucumber
- Sugar
- Salt

Grate the cucumbers and put them all into a medium sized sauce pan. Strain the
seeds and pour all the liquid into the diced cucumber, discard the seeds. Place the
sugar, salt, in the pot. Bring to a simmer for about 30 minutes stirring often until
cucumbers are soft and translucent. Taste for sweetness or salt. Your jam will thicken
as it cools.
IV. RESULT AND FINDINGS

V. DISCUSSION
Cucumber jam will appeal to those who prefer original and unusual
proposals. It does not have a pronounced taste of cucumbers, it has delicate notes of
lemon, orange, mint, currant or gooseberry, depending on the additional ingredients.
Such jam will not only be an excellent addition to the table, but will also strengthen the
immune system, which is especially important in winter. It can be a very abundant
garden harvest. We eat them fresh by the bushel and can up dozens of quart jars of
pickles and yet there are still so very many. Cucumber mint jam is a fun, tasty, and
unusual way to use a few up.
VI. CONCLUSION
Cucumbers are a popular fruit to grow for homesteaders in the warmer seasons,
but if you’re new to growing them yourself, you might be wondering what to do with the
abundant results. Of course, you could give a bunch of them away, but otherwise you’ll
need to explore ways to preserve them. It have a mild, refreshing taste and a high water
content. They can help relieve dehydration and are pleasant to eat in hot weather.
People eat cucumber as a savory food, but it is a fruit. It also features in some beauty
products. Cucumbers are a low-acid vegetable. The addition of sugar and vinegar is key
to raise the acidity level for canning. As much as I prefer a low-sugar jam.
