    SUMMARYJAMJams are made by cooking the whole fruit with sugar.Jelly is fruit juice cooked with sugar to form a gel, some fruits and fruit combinations require added pectinin addition to the natural pectin present in the fruit itself.Preserves are whole or cut up fruits cooked in a thick sugar syrup.Citrus preserves are generally called Marmalades.Preserves and jams must contain at least 45% fruit, the rest is sugar. Citric or similar food acids, corn

    syrup and dextrose are also permitted. No artificial colors or flavors are allowed. There are alsostringent and complicated USDA grade specifications for each type of pack (such as portion packs andlarge bulk pack).VariationsChutneyMain article: Chutney

    A chutney is a pungent relish of Indian origin made of fruit, spices and herbs. Although originally intendedto be eaten soon after production, modern chutneys are often made to be sold and so requirepreservatives - often sugar and vinegar - to ensure it has a suitable shelf life. Mango chutney, forexample, is mangoes reduced with sugar.ConfitMain article: ConfitConfit, which is the past participle form of the French verb "confire" or "to preserve", is most often applied

    to preservation of meats, especially poultry and pork, by cooking them in their own fat or oils and allowingthe fats to set. However, the term can also refer to fruit or vegetables which have been seasoned andcooked with honey or sugar until it has reached a jam-like consistency. Savory confits, such as onesmade with garlic or tomatoes, may call for a savory oil such as virgin olive oil as the preserving agent.Conserves

    A conserve, or whole fruit jam, is a jam made of fruit stewed in sugar.Often the making of conserves can be trickier than making a standard jam, because the balance betweencooking, or sometimes steeping in the hot sugar mixture for just enough time to allow the flavor to beextracted from the fruit,[6] and sugar to penetrate the fruit, and cooking too long that fruit will break downand liquefy. This process can also be achieved by spreading the dry sugar over raw fruit in layers, andleaving for several hours to steep into the fruit then just heating the resulting mixture only to bring to thesetting point.[5][7] As a result of this minimal cooking, some fruits are not particularly suitable for makinginto conserves, because they require cooking for longer periods to avoid issues such as tough

    skins.Currants & gooseberries, and a number of plums are among these fruits.Due to this shorter cooking period, not as much pectin will be released from the fruit, and as such,conserves (particularly home-made conserves) will sometimes be slightly softer set than some jams.

    An alternate definition holds that conserves are preserves made from a mixture of fruits and/orvegetables. Conserves may also include dried fruit or nuts.Fruit butterMain article: Fruit butterFruit butter, in this context, refers to a process where the whole fruit is forced through a sieve or blendedafter the heating process.

    "Fruit butters are generally made from larger fruits, such as apples, plums, peaches or grapes. Cook untilsoftened and run through a sieve to give a smooth consistency. After sieving, cook the pulp ... add sugarand cook as rapidly as possible with constant stirring... The finished product should mound up whendropped from a spoon, but should not cut like jelly. Neither should there be any free liquid."Berolzheimer R (ed) et al. (1959)Fruit curdMain article: Fruit curdFruit curd is a dessert topping and spread usually made with lemon, lime, orange, or raspberry.[10] Thebasic ingredients are beaten egg yolks, sugar, fruit juice and zest which are gently cooked together untilthick and then allowed to cool, forming a soft, smooth, intensely flavored spread. Some recipes alsoinclude egg whites and/or butter.Fruit spreadFruit spread refers to a jam or preserve with no added sugar.JamJam contains both fruit juice and pieces of the fruit's (or vegetable's) flesh,[12] although some cookbooksdefine jam as cooked and gelled fruit (or vegetable) purees.[13]Properly, the term jam refers to a product made with whole fruit, cut into pieces or crushed. The fruit isheated with water and sugar to activate the pectin in the fruit. The mixture is then put into containers. Thefollowing extract from a US cookbook describes the process."Jams are usually made from pulp and juice of one fruit, rather than a combination of several fruits.

    Berries and other small fruits are most frequently used, though larger fruits such as apricots, peaches, orplums cut into small pieces or crushed are also used for jams. Good jam has a soft even consistencywithout distinct pieces of fruit, a bright color, a good fruit flavor and a semi-jellied texture that is easy tospread but has no free liquid." - Berolzheimer R (ed) et al. (1959)[notes 1]Examples:Strawberry jam (sweet, fruit)Mint jam (savory)Jalapeo pepper jam (hot)VariationsUncooked or minimally cooked (less than 5 minutes) jams, called freezer jam, because they are storedfrozen, are popular in parts of North America for their very fresh taste.JellyJelly is a clear or translucent fruit spread made from sweetened fruit (or vegetable) juice and set using

    naturally occurring pectin. Additional pectin may be added where the original fruit does not supplyenough, for example with grapes.[12] Jelly can be made from sweet, savory or hot ingredients. It is madeby a process similar to that used for making jam, with the additional step of filtering out the fruit pulp afterthe initial heating. A muslin or stockinette "jelly bag" is traditionally used as a filter, suspended by stringover a bowl to allow the straining to occur gently under gravity. It is important not to attempt to force thestraining process, for example by squeezing the mass of fruit in the muslin, or the clarity of the resulting

    jelly will be compromised."Good jelly is clear and sparkling and has a fresh flavor of the fruit from which it is made. It is tenderenough to quiver when moved, but holds angles when cut.EXTRACTING JUICE Pectin is best extracted from the fruit by heat, therefore cook the fruit until softbefore straining to obtain the juice ... Pour cooked fruit into a jelly bag which has been wrung out of coldwater. Hang up and let drain. When dripping has ceased the bag may be squeezed to remove remaining

    juice, but this may cause cloudy jelly." - Berolzheimer R (ed) et al. (1959)[notes 2]

    Examples:Grape jelly (sweet, fruit)Mint jelly (savory)Jalapeo pepper jelly (hot)MarmaladeMain article: MarmaladeBritish-style marmalade is a sweet preserve with a bitter tang made from fruit, sugar, water, and (in somecommercial brands) a gelling agent. American-style marmalade is sweet, not bitter. In English-speakingusage, "marmalade" almost always refers to a preserve derived from a citrus fruit, most commonlyoranges, although onion marmalade is also used as an accompaniment to savoury dishes.

    The recipe includes sliced or chopped fruit peel, which is simmered in fruit juice and water until soft;indeed marmalade is sometimes described as jam with fruit peel (although many companies now alsomanufacture peel-free marmalade). Such marmalade is most often consumed on toasted bread forbreakfast. The favoured citrus fruit for marmalade production in the UK is the "Seville orange," Citrusaurantium var. aurantium, thus called because it was originally imported from Seville in Spain; it is higherin pectin than sweet oranges, and therefore gives a good set. Marmalade can also be made from lemons,limes, grapefruit, strawberries or a combination.Regional terminologyJams, jellies and honeys, Minnesota State FairThe term preserves is usually interchangeable with jam. Some cookbooks define preserves as cookedand gelled whole fruit (or vegetable), which includes a significant portion of the fruit.The terms jam and jelly are used in different parts of the English-speaking world in different ways. In theUnited States, both jam and jelly are sometimes popularly referred to as "jelly", whereas in the UnitedKingdom, Canada, India and Australia, the two terms are more strictly differentiated. In Australia andSouth Africa, the term jam is more popularly used as a generic term for both jam and jelly.To further confuse the issue, the term jelly is also used in the UK, South Africa, Australia, India and NewZealand to refer to a gelatin dessert, known in North America as jello, derived from the brand name Jell-O.ProductionJam being made in a pot

    In general, jam is produced by taking mashed or chopped fruit or vegetable pulp and boiling it with sugarand water. The proportion of sugar and fruit varies according to the type of fruit and its ripeness, but arough starting point is equal weights of each. When the mixture reaches a temperature of 104 C (219F),[citation needed] the acid and the pectin in the fruit react with the sugar, and the jam will set oncooling. However, most cooks work by trial and error, bringing the mixture to a "fast rolling boil", watchingto see if the seething mass changes texture, and dropping small samples on a plate to see if they run orset.Commercially produced jams are usually produced using one of two methods. The first is the open panmethod, which is essentially a larger scale version of the method a home jam maker would use. Thisgives a traditional flavor, with some caramelization of the sugars. The second commercial processinvolves the use of a vacuum vessel, where the jam is placed under a vacuum, which has the effect ofreducing its boiling temperature to anywhere between 65-80 C depending on the recipe and the endresult desired. The lower boiling temperature enables the water to be driven off as it would be when using

    the traditional open pan method, but with the added benefit of retaining more of the volatile flavorcompounds from the fruit, preventing caramelization of the sugars, and of course reducing the overallenergy required to make the product. However, once the desired amount of water has been driven off, the

    jam still needs to be heated briefly to 95-100 C to kill off any micro-organisms that may be present; thevacuum pan method does not kill them all. During the commercial filling of the jam into jars, it is commonto use a flame to sterilize the rim of the jar and the lid to destroy any yeasts & molds which may causespoilage during storage. It is also common practice to inject steam into the head space at the top of the

    jar immediately prior to the fitting of the lid, in order to create a vacuum. Not only does this vacuum helpprevent the growth of spoilage organisms, it also pulls down the tamper evident safety button when lids ofthis type are employed.

    Strawberry jam

    How easily a jam sets depends on the pectin content of the fruit. Some fruits, such as gooseberries,redcurrants, blackcurrants, most citrus fruits, apples, and raspberries, set very well; others, such asstrawberries and ripe blackberries, often need to have pectin added. There are commercial pectinproducts on the market, and most industrially-produced jams use them. Home jam-makers sometimesrely on adding a pectin-rich fruit to a poor setter, for example apple to blackberries. Other tricks includeextracting juice from lemons, redcurrants or gooseberries, or making a pectin stock with whole apples or

    just the cores and skins; once cooled, this 'stock' can then be frozen for later use.[7] Making jam at homeis a popular handicraft activity, and many take part in this. Homemade jam may be made for personalconsumption, or as part of a cottage industry.Legal definitions

    5/22

    US FDA definitionsThe U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) published standards of identity in 21 CFR 150, and treats

    jam and preserves as synonymous, but distinguishes jelly from jams and preserves. All of these arecooked and pectin-gelled fruit products, but jellies are based entirely on fruit juice or other liquids, while

    jams and preserves are gelled fruit that may include the seeds and pulp. The United States Departmentof Agriculture offers grading service based on these standards.[12]European Union directives on 'jam'In the European Union, the jam directive (Council Directive 79/693/EEC, 24 July 1979)[17] set minimumstandards for the amount of "fruit" in jam, but the definition of fruit was expanded to take account ofseveral unusual kinds of jam made in the EU. For this purpose, "fruit" is considered to include fruits thatare not usually treated in a culinary sense as fruits, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, and pumpkins; fruitsthat are not normally made into jams; and vegetables that are sometimes made into jams, such as:rhubarb (the edible part of the stalks), carrots, and sweet potatoes. This definition continues to apply inthe new directive, Council Directive 2001/113/EC of 20 December 2001 relating to fruit jams, jellies andmarmalades and sweetened chestnut pure intended for human consumption.[18]'Extra jam' is subject to somewhat stricter rules that set higher standards for the minimum fruit content(45% instead of 35% as a general rule, but lower for some fruits such as redcurrants and blackcurrants),as well specifying as the use of unconcentrated fruit pulp, and forbidding the mixture of certain fruits andvegetables with others.[18]Jelly worldwide

    This is a delicious jam to make with fresh figs.Ingredients:

    3 pounds fresh figs, washed, stems removed

    2 cups granulated sugarJuice and finely grated zest of 1 lemonPreparation:

    In a large saucepan, combine the figs, sugar, and lemon juiceand zest. Bring to a simmer over medium low heat, stirringconstantly. Cover and simmer over low heat for 1 hour,stirring occasionally. Remove the cover and continue

    simmering, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens.When the mixture gets quite thick, begin to stir constantly tokeep from scorching.For a good gel, test a small amount on a very cold saucer: Putthe saucer in the freezer for a few minutes, put a little of thefig mixture on it, then return to the freezer for 1 minute. Whena good gel stage is reached, the surface of the fruit mixturewill wrinkle slightly when pushed with a finger.

    While figs are cooking, prepare the jars and lids. Put the glassjars in a boiling water canner about half-filled with water. Bringto a boil; reduce heat and keep jars in the water.
