What is the difference between jam and jelly, or preserves and marmalade? On this week’s episode of the Perfectly Preserved Podcast, we cover all types of fruit in jars to demystify what each is. From jam to jellies, conserves, and more, we’re here to save the day!
We discuss why jam has more fiber and nutrients compared to other fruit preserved in jars and what constitutes a high-quality jelly. You’ll hear why curd can be fussy to make, but is worth the effort and our favorite ways to use it. You’ll also learn how a fruit preserve is different from jams or jelly and what a fruit conserve is. But it doesn’t stop there! We clear the air on chutney, confit, and that ever so challenging marmalade.
We hope this episode clears up any confusion about various types of fruit preserved in jars! Let us know if you try any of these methods. We love to see what you’re making!
