Jam is a type of sweet spread or condiment made with certain fruits or vegetables, sugar, and pectin. Most jams are cooked. Uncooked or minimally cooked (less than 5 minutes) jams, called "freezer jam" (because they are stored frozen) are popular in parts of North America for their very fresh taste.
In the United States and Canada, jams are invariably made from mashed or ground fresh fruits (or in the case of vegetable jams, from cooked vegetables), and are never filtered. In United Kingdom and most Commonwealth countries, there are filtered and unfiltered jams, with the former resembling what Americans and Canadians call jelly. In this case the word "jelly" is usually reserved for a sweetened gelatine dessert. (An exception is bramble jelly, a seedless blackberry jam).
True North American jelly, however, is not filtered jam but is made by cooking transparent to translucent fruit or vegetable juice with sugar until it reaches the jelly stage (about 240° Fahrenheit), after which pectin is added to help the jelly achieve a firm set.
