pekmez

(Translation, Yugoslavia)

Like jam, except it isn't. When making jam, pectin is added. In pekmez, you rely on the pectin contained in the fruit, and the density is achieved by simply cooking it longer. She puts very little sugar, and we all like it more that way. Sugar kills the taste.

I'm amazed at the sheer number of people who don't know the difference and use the terms as if they were the same.
