Recommendations & Tricks
- When mixing NH pectin with sugar, make sure to do it in dry form to avoid lumps when adding it to the hot water.
- It's best to add the lemon juice at the end of cooking to preserve its freshness and acidity and to prevent the glaze from losing its shine.
- Store any leftover glaze in an airtight jar in the refrigerator, where it will remain bright and fresh for up to a week.
