Sorry, Ras, but I have to tell you, I'm deeply confused by the above.
Perhaps you could re-rephrase it? >>
OK....Key of F#.............Unfortunately, I do not have any examples from
written works dating from the Middle Ages to either disprove or prove the
existence of fruit jellies.The current research materials that I have access
to does not indicate that clarified or strained fruit juices were utilized to
make fruit jellies during the Middle Ages although there may be some
indication that mashed fruit may have been occasionally prepared in a manner
that closely resembles the modern product we call fruit "jam". etc., etc.
