Sugar is essential because it attracts and holds water during the gelling process. [2] Gelling sugar is used for traditional British recipes for jam, marmalade and preserves with the following formulas: 1:1 – Use for jellies and jams with equal weights of fruit and Gelling Sugar. 2:1 – Use for preserves to produce less sweetness.
An Opekta advertising poster from Anne Frank's room in the Secret Annexe. "Nù zelf Jam maken met Opekta", roughly "Now make homemade Jam with Opekta" Opekta was a German pectin and spice company that existed between 1928 and 1995. [1]
Pectin also reduces syneresis in jams and marmalades and increases the gel strength of low-calorie jams. For household use, pectin is an ingredient in gelling sugar (also known as "jam sugar") where it is diluted to the right concentration with sugar and some citric acid to adjust pH. [citation needed]
Its old scientific name [citation needed] that is still often seen, Solanum × burbankii, indicates a plant of hybrid origin. It was supposedly bred by Luther Burbank in the early 1900s as a hybrid of S. villosum and S. guineense [2] but in fact S. retroflexum is a proper species of its own, while the supposed hybrid combination would not be viable due to different ploidy of S. guineense and S ...
Pectic acid, also known as polygalacturonic acid, is a water-soluble, transparent gelatinous acid existing in over-ripe fruit and some vegetables.It is a product of pectin degradation in plants, and is produced via the interaction between pectinase and pectin (the latter being common in the wine-making industry.)

Modified citrus pectin (also known as depolymerized pectin, fractioned pectin, modified pectin, pH-modified pectin, low molecular weight pectin, and MCP) is a more digestible form of pectin. Modified citrus pectin is composed predominantly of D-polygalacturonates, which are more easily absorbed by the human digestive system. [2]
