Question:

What's the differance between jam & marmalade?


Answers:
Jam is made from soft fruit, marmelade is made from bitter oranges (or other citrus fruit eg lemon, lime).

marmalde is made with oranges

marmalade is made from oranges

marmalade has the rind in it, like orange and tangerine peels
Jam is lumpy with bits of fruit, like strawberry and peach pieces
jelly is just all smoothed out so you cannot tel what is in it

marmalade has fruit peels instead of the whole fruit

Jam is made from fruit ,usually berry like or other soft fruit,cooked till soft then cooked longer with sugar till it sets,for fruit poor in pectin,which is the substance that helps a jam to set,commercial pectin is added.
Marmalade is made usually with oranges,but any citrus fruit can be used,chunks of fruit & thin to thick shreds of cut peel are included,while cooking marmalade pips are included in a small bundle tied in cheese cloth,these help in providing pectin to the mixture & are later discarded ,after sugar is added it is cooked like any jam.
Jellies are made from the strained liquid after a fruit has been stewed to extract all its juice & flavour,hence it is an almost transparent type of jam,without any particles.

Marmalade is made from Citrus fruits,usually Oranges.it usually contains peel as well
Jam is made from most fruits,mainly berries

thats easy! one is red, the other is orange!

JAM IS NICE!
