The scent of blossoms in orchard apple juice, smooth and spreadable.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElderflower Jelly Spread\u003c\/strong\u003e by FrüchteMeer is a jelly made from orchard apple juice, infused with elderflower extract prepared by the artisan manufacturer. No elderberry spread, no fruit preserves with pieces, no syrup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElderflower Jelly Spread\u003c\/strong\u003e is a jelly spread from the FrüchteMeer preserves manufactory in Wankendorf, which captures the scent of elderflowers in an extract made from orchard apple juice. According to the ingredients list, the blossom extract makes up 49 percent of the jar. Jelly is made from juice, not fruit pulp. That is why it is smooth, free of pieces, and can be spread right to the edge of the bread. What ends up on the toast is essentially an aroma with a spreadable consistency: light, floral, and with a delicate apple freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFloral, honeyed, and underpinned by apple freshness\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eElderflower Jelly Spread tastes like the scent of the creamy white blossoms: floral, honeyed, and slightly sweet, with a hint of citrus on the finish. The orchard apple juice forms the foundation. It brings a mild fruit acidity that gives the blossom aroma support and keeps it from becoming too sweet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe jelly melts quickly in the mouth and leaves a clean, fresh impression. The intensity is deliberately restrained. Those expecting fruit pieces or a strong berry note will not find them here. Next to roasted aromas, garlic, or chili, the delicate blossom tone gets lost, so the jar is not suitable for hearty cuisine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe comparison with elderflower syrup is interesting. The syrup is drunk diluted and tastes mainly sweet. In the jelly, on the other hand, the apple juice and acidity provide more structure, making the blossom scent appear clearer and less sticky. On buttered bread, this difference is particularly evident because the fat in the butter carries the aromas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVisually, too, a jelly made from light apple juice differs from the deep red berry spreads on the shelf; it appears light and translucent. For people looking for a very intense, fruit-focused spread, it is less suitable. Those who appreciate delicate aromas will find a quiet but clear variety here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAs a cake glaze, with panna cotta, and on breakfast toast\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe jelly spread plays to its strengths everywhere a light, floral aroma is called for. Five practical uses:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAs a cake glaze, briefly heat three tablespoons of jelly with one tablespoon of water and brush over strawberries on a sponge cake base.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAdd one teaspoon to lightly warmed panna cotta or vanilla pudding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFor breakfast, spread on buttered toast, buttermilk rolls, or a croissant.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eArrange ricotta with a little lemon zest and drizzle one tablespoon of jelly over it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDissolve one teaspoon in hot white or black tea.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStrawberry and elderflower are a classic pair that combines well at the breakfast table with \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/fruechtemeer-erdbeere-fruchtaufstrich\"\u003estrawberry spread\u003c\/a\u003e.

Cooking it for a long time causes the volatile blossom aromas to evaporate, leaving mainly the sweetness of the apple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eArtisan blossom extract from the Holsteinische Schweiz\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe black elderberry, botanically Sambucus nigra, blooms in late spring and early summer in flat, plate-sized clusters. The flowering period is short, and the aroma is volatile. To preserve it, the blossoms are placed in a liquid that absorbs the scent. According to the label, FrüchteMeer makes this extract itself and uses orchard apple juice for this purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOrchard meadows are areas with tall fruit trees that stand loosely distributed on grassland. Old, robust varieties that rarely end up in supermarkets often grow there. Juice from such meadows usually comes from a mixture of many varieties and therefore tastes much more complex than single-variety table apple juice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFrüchteMeer was founded in 1996 in Wankendorf and continues to be run by Karsten Thiesen and Susanne Lucht-Thiesen as a family business. They combine traditional preserving methods with new flavor ideas. The in-house blossom extract is an example of how much craftsmanship can be involved in a seemingly simple variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA delicate spread for tea time and as a gift\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this jar apart from most breakfast spreads is the ingredient blossom instead of fruit. This makes it lighter and more fragrant, almost more like perfume than jam. It is perfect for an extended breakfast, afternoon tea, and desserts with light fruits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs a gift, the 210-g jar is a surprise for anyone who knows and appreciates elderflower syrup. Together with a package of white tea or fresh strawberries, it makes a small, harmonious gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEven on a breakfast buffet with several varieties, the jar fulfills its own role. Between bold berry and citrus spreads, it forms the light, quiet counterpoint. Guests who prefer something delicate in the morning often reach for this variety. After opening, the jar should be kept closed in the refrigerator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eElderflower from FrüchteMeer preserves a volatile blossom scent in the jar and brings it to your breakfast table at every season.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"FrüchteMeer","offers":[{"title":"210 g","offer_id":57790657986886,"sku":"034FRM0012","price":5.25,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/4960\/1350\/files\/fruechtemeer-holunderbluete-geleeaufstrich.png?v=1793882142","url":"https:\/\/genussland.de\/en\/products\/fruechtemeer-holunderbluete-geleeaufstrich","provider":"genussland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
