Question

Arrange the process of preparation of jelly in proper sequence:
(A) Judging of end point and cooling.
(B) Addition of sugar and cooking of jelly.
(C) Peeling and extraction of pectin.
(D) Harvesting of firm ripe fruits and washing.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. (A), (B), (C), (D)
• B. (D), (C), (B), (A)
• C. (C), (B), (D), (A)
• D. (B), (C), (D), (A)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The correct sequence of steps for making jelly is as follows:

(D) Harvesting of firm ripe fruits and washing: This is the first step, where ripe fruits are selected, harvested, and washed thoroughly to ensure that they are clean and free from contaminants.

(C) Peeling and extraction of pectin: After washing the fruits, the next step is peeling the fruits (if necessary) and extracting the pectin, which is the substance that helps the jelly set.

(B) Addition of sugar and cooking of jelly: After extracting the pectin, sugar is added to the mixture, and the jelly is cooked to the desired consistency.

(A) Judging of end point and cooling: Finally, the end point of the cooking is judged (usually by checking if the jelly has reached the right consistency), and then the jelly is cooled.

Thus, the correct answer is (2) (D), (C), (B), (A).
