Jam Preserve
Jams and jellies are spreads typically made from fruit, sugar, and
pectin. Jelly is made with the juice of the fruit; jam uses the meat of
the fruit as well. Some vegetable jellies are also produced. It is difficult to pinpoint when people first made a fruit spread.
Ancient civilizations were known to set a variety of foods in the sun to
dry in order to preserve them for later use. One of the first recorded
mentions of jam making dates to the Crusades whose soldiers brought the
process back from their journeys in the Middle East.Preserving foods was a home-based operation until the nineteenth
century. Even today, millions of people make fruit preserves in their
own kitchens. Whether in the home kitchen or in a modern food processing
plants, the procedure is essentially the same. Fruits are chopped and
cooked with sugar and pectin until a gel is formed. The jam or jelly is
then packed into sterilized jars.
