You have to try this pear and apple jam. It is a delight thanks to the flavor that star anise gives it.
In the step-by-step photos you can see that making it is not complicated. I like it with pieces of fruit but if you prefer it to be softer, you can crush it with a simple mixer.
It is perfect for toasts, to accompany cheese boards and to elaborate homemade desserts. Needless to say, kids love it.

We prepare the fruit.
We peel the pears and apples and cut them into cubes.
We pour the lemon juice over them and mix. This will prevent the fruit from rusting.
We put our fruit in a saucepan and add the anise.
Cook over low heat for approximately 20 minutes.
We remove the star anise.
We incorporate the sugar.
We mix well and put it back on the fire.
After a few minutes we mash the fruit with a mixer. If we want pieces of fruit to remain, we can replace the blender with a utensil similar to the one seen in the photo or crush it with a simple fork.
We let everything cook on the fire for another 20 minutes or until the desired texture is obtained. During this time it is important to be vigilant and mix our compote from time to time.
We distribute the jam in glass jars.
We fill the jars well, to the top. We put the lid on them and let them cool upside down.
Once cold, we keep it in the refrigerator.
