### STORING COOKED JAMS AND JELLY

        Store  jams  and jellies in  a  cool,  dry  place;  the

    shorter
     the storage time,  the better the eating quality of

    the
    product.   After the jelly has been opened, it should be

    refrigerated.

        Jams and jellies may be frozen successfully.   Freezing

    has
    no adverse effects on the color.  flavor,  or texture of

    jellied
     products.   However,  if  jelly has  been  properly

    processed,
    there is no reason to freeze it.  It is a  shelf-

    stable
     product.   We  do not recommend  tying  up  valuable

    freezer
    space with jams and jellies.
