The Differences Between Jelly, Jam. Preserves, and Marmalade

Подробнее о видео

Jelly, jam, preserves, and marmalade. What are the differences?

Jelly:
Jelly is made with fruit juice and sugar, so if you're looking for a real fruit spread, this isn't for you. 

Because of this, though, it's the most budget-friendly option. 

Jam:
Jams are a step up from jelly, made with crushed fruit and fruit juice cooked down with sugar. 

Typically, this is what I will reach for at the store. 

Preserves:
Preserves are for the fruit lovers. They're mainly real fruit with a little fruit juice and tend to be chunkier than the other two. 

If you're looking for a bold fruit taste, this is for you. 

Marmalades:
Marmalades are made with citrus and citrus peels cooked down with sugar. 

Having the peels in there can add a trace of bitterness but, personally, I love it. 

If you've ever wondered what the differences are, now you know. Send this guide to someone who needs it.
