Stefan,
The adding of sugar, to preserve, and to make palatable, is common, and
the cooking, to destroy microorganisms--even before they knew about
those, they figured out that if you cooked food well and sealed it, it
didn't spoil. Here are the differances:
whole or half or large chunks in the finished product=preserves
crushed fruit left in the spread=jam
fruit juice strained thru fabric (linen or cotton 'jelly bags') so that
resulting jelly is clear=jelly.
Now, just to confuse you, ;-) things can be added to a jelly, as chunks
of cooked meat and vegetables can be added to a meat jelly for a
galentine.
Regards,
Allison
