Sahar Carrot Jam Glass Jar 310g

The total soluble solids content is calibrated strictly between 65% and 68% Brix using digital refractometers. This optimal sugar concentration forms a cohesive pectin gel network, lowering water activity ($a_w$) to naturally inhibit spoilage microflora and prevent premature crystallization or mold growth.

Vacuum evaporation operates at gentle temperatures of 60-70°C. This low thermal load shields heat-sensitive beta-carotene pigments from degradation and prevents Maillard sugar browning, preserving a bright honeyed translucence and vibrant cardamom bouquet.

Cleaned carrots pass through high-speed rotary slicers equipped with calibrated surgical stainless steel blades, cutting exact 2-3 mm julienne ribbons. Vibratory screens eliminate micro-debris, ensuring uniform ribbon aesthetics suspended in the clear preserve.

Packed 12 jars per heavy-gauge shrink-wrapped tray with a reinforced corrugated bottom pad (approx. 6.4kg gross pack weight), engineered for high pallet stacking stability during container ocean shipping.

A standard 20ft dry freight container accommodates approximately 2,100 to 2,300 shrink packs of 12 units on pallets (25,200 to 27,600 jars, equating to ~7.8-8.5 tons net, ~15 tons gross payload).

The metal closure is applied via a high-speed steam-vacuum capper. As long as hermetic vacuum holds, the central button remains concave, producing an audible "pop" upon initial twisting to confirm genuine factory seal security.

Unopened, it retains full quality for 24 months in ambient storage. Once opened, because it contains zero chemical preservatives, mandatory refrigeration at 4-8°C is required, and clean, dry utensils must be used to avoid fungal cross-contamination.
