Apple jam exists, but mostly apples make applesauce or apple butter or apple jelly. Or apple pie.
Orange pulp and pith turn bitter when cooked, which is why marmalade uses only the juice and a thin layer of the zest, which is boiled and drained to remove bitterness before cooking with the juice.
Yes I understand that to be true. I tried with some of my extra lemons and somehow managed to get the bitterness without the gelling effect, but that doesn’t mean I don’t believe it works if properly done.
Come autumn I can buy a 20lb bag of winesap apples for like 15 (probably 20 this year) and then I get to can SO MUCH apple butter! It’s a delight! Homemade is great.
I’ve never had homemade! There is an apple festival near me every year, and I grab what I can there, though. Every year I think to myself that “this is the year I will pick some apples and I will make stuff out of them for cheap!”, but laziness always wins lol.
It’s easy to make in the slow cooker! Apples, both sugar, some spices, let them cook until the dice apples feel hollow, puree them, let cook even longer til desired consistency!
Apples make jam, oranges make marmalade. Only apple juice turns tasty when fermenting it.
That’s it…

Depends on who’s making it. The pith may add some bitterness but it also allows you to make it without adding pectin because it is naturally present.

Apple jam? The fuck?
Apple butter is superior for sure!
Shawty got that apple butter jam…
Apple butter is the superior condiment for toast.

Makes the house smell amazing!
Yeah, I’ve looked up a few recipes like this, but getting a large jar for $10 from somewhere local tends to win. I will do it one day, I promise…
It’s good stuff, EXCELLENT on pumpernickel toast
