La jam It is produced exclusively with citrus fruits, as oranges, tangerines, grapefruits, lemons or citronsThis characteristic clearly distinguishes it from other fruit preserves and defines its fresh and slightly acidic flavour.
La jam, instead, is prepared with other types of fruit, for example strawberries, apricots, plums, blueberries or raspberriesIt can be more or less dense depending on the amount of sugar and the cooking time, and is characterized by a sweet and varied flavor.
This distinction, also established by European legislation, allows for the correct identification of the two products, which, although similar in their preparation process, offer different flavors and uses in the kitchen.
