"Then it's good you're here, By your window seat, With duvet and marmalade food" sings Alberte Vinding. It's a lovely song that brings back memories from childhood, because was there anything better than sitting on a weekend morning with the duvet and lovely jam food. Young and old alike love jam, and the sweet fruit flavor compliments a multitude of delicacies, such as cheese, pancakes and bread.

The invention of jams and jams happened when people wanted to find a way to save the fresh fruits for the winter, and in Greece the earliest jams were made from apricots, figs, nectarines and peaches, as these fruits grow well in the Mediterranean climate and were easy to get get in. In ancient Greece, marmalade was called Melimilon, which resembles the modern marmalade, but was instead made by boiling the fruit in wine and preserving it with honey.

Today, the process is somewhat more modern, and marmalade is often made by boiling the fresh fruits and berries and preserving them using pectin. The difference between jam and jam is that jam often has a higher sugar content and jam is also often preserved with citrus or citric acid.

Since marmalade often has a relatively low sugar content, Greeks consider it part of a healthy Mediterranean diet. The fruit in the jam contains vitamins such as vitamin C, antioxidants and fibre, which can be difficult to get enough of in winter.

Greeks eat marmalade as we do, i.e. on bread and in desserts, but in addition to that they can also use it to marinate meat and to sweeten tea. As a marinade, the marmalade acts as a sweet glaze for the meat, which goes really well with e.g. pork or lamb. Here it is probably not the strawberry jam that you need to find, but variants with citrus or possibly the fig compliments it really well. Jam can be added to baked goods for sweetness and liquid content, for example try adding jam to muffin batter, bun batter or pancake batter. The possibilities are many, and on this page you will find flavors that can be used for everything!
