If you use overly sour berries to make jam, don't think that sugar can solve the problem.

The frankly sour taste is difficult to overcome even with a large amount of granulated sugar.

This disadvantage is present, for example, in cherry plum, and is also found in other fruits.

Luckily, adding just one ingredient can fix the situation in no time.

We are talking about a product that is familiar to all housewives without exception: baking soda.

Of course, the correct proportions are important.

According to chefs who use this life hack when making jam, you only need to add a quarter teaspoon of baking powder per 1 kg of berries or fruits.

Thanks to the presence of soda in the treat, you will be able to enhance the sweetness of the fruit without adding a “ton” of sugar and losing the taste.
