Anti-inflammatory Recipes: Dried Fruit Jam
Recipes for good health, from one of the nation's top children's hospitals.
The anti-inflammatory diet is a fiber- and nutrient-rich eating pattern that focuses on whole foods and reduces or eliminates foods known to contribute to chronic inflammation. Potential benefits of the diet include maintenance of health and wellness and prevention of chronic diseases associated with inflammation, such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease and some forms of cancer. This recipe was developed by a team of doctors and nutrition experts at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and Drexel University.

Raw jam is not only easy and quick - possibly the quickest jam you've ever made, but it also has a very deep and intense flavor you've probably never tasted before. It's made entirely from dried fruit - no added sugar or pectin.
If you’ve ever read the label on a jar of store-bought jam, the sugar content will catch you by surprise. Store-bought jam is mostly made with corn syrup (or some other type of fructose-glucose syrup) and standard white sugar. Not to mention the amount of pectin used to thicken it up.
Jam made from dried fruit is the opposite of that. Since the fruit is dried, aka concentrated in natural sugar, there's no need to add additional sugar. Also, dried fruit has very low water content - dried apricots, for instance, contain only about 22% water - and so there's no need to add pectin or some other type of thickener.
Perhaps most importantly, when you dry fruit, its flavor magnifies, resulting in an intensely flavorful, delicious jam.

Apple Peeling Jelly
If you are using lots of apples for any recipe, save the cores and peelings to make delicious apple peeling jelly. It is as simple as cooking the peels and cores down to extract the juice, flavor and pectin, then using the resulting juice in the regular jelly-making process. This jelly captures the tastes and smells of everything we associate with the autumn season.
