Fraise

Fraise is the straightforward strawberry jar for people who want the familiar red jam taste without extra decoration. By our assessment, it is good at the one job strawberry jam should do: bring a clear berry sweetness that works on bread, crêpes, and plain yogurt. The limit is also familiar: strawberry preserves can blur into sameness if the fruit is not very vivid, so the result depends on how much real strawberry character is left in the cook. In use it is usually smooth, easy to spread, and instantly recognizable, which is exactly why this kind of jam keeps its place on breakfast tables. It sits in the middle of the whole fruit-preserve world, not special, but dependable in the ordinary way. Anyone after a basic strawberry conserve will understand it quickly, and anyone chasing sharpness should look elsewhere.
