Cooking
Turn on the stove to medium heat and bring the lemon-sugar mixture to a boil. While cooking, stir occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Let the jam cook until the mixture has thickened and reached the desired consistency. To test the consistency, you can place a small amount of jam on a cold saucer; if a thick film forms on the surface, then the jam is ready.
Storage
While the jam is still warm, pour it into sterilized glass jars and seal them tightly. Let the jars cool upside down to create a natural vacuum, which will help preserve the freshness of the jam. Store the jars in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
