Techniques
  • 2 lb diced mangoes
  • 1½ lb granulated sugar
  • 1 cup water
Put the diced mangoes, still frozen, in the pan with the sugar, water and the juice of half a lemon.
Into the pot: mango, sugar, water, lemon
  • ½ whole lemon
Start over medium heat until the mangoes thaw, then reduce to low and simmer 20 to 25 minutes until the mangoes are soft and the syrup thickens.
Take off the heat; optionally cool completely. Pulse in a blender until smooth, or stop early for a chunkier jam.
Transfer to jars, cool completely, cover and refrigerate. Thin with hot water or mango juice if desired; it thickens as it sits.
