This is Food Safety in a Minute from Washington State University Extension.
What do jams, jellies, preserves, and marmalades have in common? They’re delicious and easy to make. A special way to preserve the summer for family and friends.
- Jellies may be cooked or uncooked, generally made from cooking fruit juice with
sugar. - Jams are thicker, made by cooking crushed or chopped fruits with sugar.
- Preserves are made with small uniform pieces of fruit or small whole fruit.
- Marmalades are soft fruit jellies and often contain citrus fruit – think orange
marmalade.
For food safety and food quality, start with a research-based recipe. Visit the National Center for Home Food Preservation online to learn more about methods used to make jams and jellies and find tested, proven recipes.
