1. Wash, half and pit the apricots. Throw them in a pot with wide bottom. Add water and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring almost constantly.
2. After 10 minutes the apricots will turn into a mash. This is the time to add sugar and lemon juice. Stir and simmer on low heat for 40 minutes or until it thickens and the apricots are completely mushy. This way there is no need to run the mixture through a sieve at all.
3. To see if the jam has thickened pour some of it onto a small plate that has been previously in the freezer. Let it cool down a bit. Now make a line through the jam with your finger. If the jam fills the space (the drawn line) it’s not quite thick yet so continue simmering. If it doesn’t, you can start filling your jars.
4. Pour or spoon the jam into jars leaving about 0.4 inch (1 cm) free from the top. Seal with lids, turn up-side down and let them cool completely.

1. Rinse apricots and pat dry.Remove seeds by slicing apricots in half and twist to separate halves. Gently remove seeds and discard. It's perfectly okay to leave skins on but remove stems.
2. Slice apricots into pieces and place in saucepan.Add sugar and fresh squeezed lemon juice. Stir together and allow to rest for about 15 minutes.
3. Slowly bring mixture to a boil. Cook until mixture thickens to desired consistency.Remove any foam that may occur during the boiling process.It is recommended that the mixture reach 220 degrees Fahrenheit. This can be monitored by using a candy thermometer. If you don’t have a candy thermometer it is recommended to continue cooking the apricots until the mixture thickens up. You will notice thickening of the apricots after the foaming process has ceased. The longer you cook the apricots the thicker the mixture becomes. Cook to desired thickness.
4. After the apricots have reached desired consistency if they are still too chunky for you gently smash or blend them while they are still in the saucepan. I find using this hand-held blender works wonders on getting the consistency preferred.
