Which of the following fruit is not suitable for jam making

A.
Mango
B.
Banana
C.
Aonla
D.
Lemon
Answer

Answer: Option D

Solution

Answer: Option D
Solution:
Lemon is a fruit that is not suitable for jam making.
Lemons vary in ripeness and therefore the amount of acid might not be adequate for the jam to achieve the proper set.
Only a few fruits contain a sufficient amount of pectin and acid to produce good jelly or jam. Pectin is very much required for making jams.
