Strawberry jam and strawberry preserves – what's the difference?
When fruit season arrives, so does the season for preserves! Jars of strawberry jam, cherry jam, and plum jam line store shelves. Have you ever wondered what the difference is between them? It's the sugar content and the way the fruit is prepared.
That's the whole secret! Jam is a gelled mixture of sugars, water, and thoroughly pureed fruit. Its consistency can be compared to pulp or puree. Jam, on the other hand, differs significantly from jam in its consistency, which is thick and ungelled.
Jams contain significantly more fruit.
Which fruits are best for jam and preserves?
Strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, peaches, and apricots are best for making jam. Plums, rose petals, and currants are the best choices for making jam at home.
How to make homemade jam?
Nothing brings joy like a delicious, sweet breakfast in the morning. Homemade jam can also be found in your pantry. How to make it? Use our simple recipe and enjoy the unique flavor of this strawberry delicacy.
To make the jam, you'll need 1 kg of strawberries and 1 kg of sugar. Start with sugar syrup - dissolve 1 kg of sugar in 0.5 liters of water and mix thoroughly, skimming off any foam. Wash the strawberries, remove the stems, and drain well.
Place the stemmed strawberries in a pot with their juice and bring to a boil again, then simmer for 5 minutes. Unlike jam, jam should not be brought to a boil. Mix the strawberries thoroughly, but do so gently so they don't fall apart.
Repeat the frying process three times. Pour the hot jam into sterilized jars, seal, and turn the jars upside down.
