Citrus jam is a sweet and tangy preserve made from a blend of citrus fruits such as oranges, lemons, limes, or grapefruits, often combined with sugar and pectin. Originating from regions with abundant citrus production, like the Mediterranean, it serves as a versatile accompaniment to breads, pastries, or even savory dishes. Packed with vitamin C and antioxidants derived from the fruits, citrus jam offers some nutritional benefits that may support immune health. However, its high sugar content makes it a treat best enjoyed in moderation, particularly for those monitoring their caloric intake or blood sugar levels. The natural acidity of the citrus provides a refreshing flavor, making it a favorite in both traditional and contemporary cuisines. For a healthier option, look for versions with less added sugar or made with natural sweeteners to retain the vibrant taste while better supporting dietary goals.
