Apricot jam is a sweet spread made primarily from ripe apricots, sugar, and often a touch of lemon juice. Originating from regions known for apricot cultivation, such as the Mediterranean and Central Asia, it is a staple in many cuisines, particularly European and Middle Eastern. Packed with natural fruit flavors, it offers a source of vitamin A and antioxidants derived from apricots, promoting eye health and immune function. However, its high sugar content makes it a calorie-dense treat, best consumed in moderation. Apricot jam is versatile, used as a topping for bread, pastries, or yogurt, and as a glaze for roasted meats or desserts. While it’s a delicious way to enjoy the fruit's essence year-round, opting for varieties with reduced sugar or homemade versions allows for a healthier choice while preserving its vibrant taste.
