FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
How long do raspberry preserves last after opening?
When stored in the refrigerator, opened raspberry preserves typically stay fresh for 6 to 12 months.
What is the difference between raspberry jam and preserves?
Preserves contain larger chunks of the fruit or whole berries, whereas jam is made from crushed fruit or pulp.
Can I freeze raspberry preserves?
Yes, you can freeze them in an airtight, freezer-safe container for up to a year, though the texture may change slightly upon thawing.
What can I use as a substitute for raspberry preserves?
Strawberry or blackberry preserves are the best alternatives. You can also use fresh raspberries simmered with sugar and a bit of lemon juice.
Are raspberry preserves vegan?
Most commercial raspberry preserves are vegan as they use pectin (a plant-based thickener) rather than gelatin.
How can I tell if the preserves have gone bad?
Look for signs of mold, an off-smell, or significant changes in color and texture. If the lid is bulging, discard it immediately.
Are there many seeds in raspberry preserves?
Yes, traditional preserves contain the natural seeds of the raspberry. If you prefer no seeds, look for 'seedless raspberry jam'.
Can raspberry preserves be used in savory cooking?
Absolutely. They pair excellently with roasted pork, duck, or as a topping for baked brie cheese.
Is there a lot of added sugar in preserves?
Yes, preserves typically contain high amounts of sugar to act as a preservative and to achieve the correct gel set.
How should I pick a high-quality raspberry preserve?
Look for brands where raspberries are listed as the first ingredient and avoid those with high fructose corn syrup.
