Banana and mulberry jam

Introduction:

"In today's increasingly advanced agricultural production technology and fruit and vegetable preservation technology, no fruit has such obvious seasonality as mulberry. It's only a few months in a year when you can see mulberry in the market. If you feel a little dull, you can't help missing the season. The reason is that the fresh mulberry fruit must be fully mature before picking. The ripe mulberry is sweet and juicy, but delicate and tender, without peel protection. That is, it can not be transported for a long time, and it is difficult to keep for a long time. Therefore, most of the mulberry fruits are made into dried mulberry, mulberry juice or mulberry jam. Mulberry is a good thing, especially for the beauties who often work in front of the computer. Mulberry can not only protect the eyes and improve eyesight, but also nourish blood and beauty, and delay aging. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that mulberry is sweet and cold in nature, and has the functions of tonifying liver and kidney, generating body fluid and moistening intestines, black hair and bright eyes. Mulberry can improve the blood supply of skin (including scalp), make the skin white and tender, and make the hair black; mulberry can also brighten the eyes, relieve the symptoms of eye fatigue and dryness. Modern studies have proved that mulberry also has the role of immune promotion, can promote the growth of red blood cells, prevent leukopenia, and has auxiliary effect on the treatment of anemia, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, coronary heart disease, neurasthenia and other diseases. It's a pity that such a good fruit can only be eaten less than one month a year.
