Preserve or Jelly?

While both jellies and preserves are made from fruit and sugar, they differ in texture and composition. Jelly is made from strained fruit juice, resulting in a smooth, translucent spread without any fruit pieces. Preserves, on the other hand, contain chunks of fruit, offering a more textured and varied consistency. Jellies are typically smoother and sweeter, while preserves showcase the natural flavors and textures of the fruit.

Fruit Preserves and Jams and Marmalades, those jars of jewel-toned sweetness, have a long and storied history in kitchens around the world. From the sun-drenched orchards of Seville to the misty hills of Scotland, these fruit-based spreads have been a staple for centuries, adding a burst of flavor to breakfast tables, afternoon teas, and everything in between.
