Summary
Chokeberries were processed into jams by mixing them with sucrose, water, pectin and citric acid and then boiled. Two different boiling times(5 min and 15 min) were tested.
The phenolic compounds in chokeberries were quite stable during the jam making and 70-75 % of the total phenols were recovered from the processed jams.
