Amla murabba
Amla murabba preserves whole Indian gooseberries in a heavy sugar syrup scented with cardamom and sharpened with pepper and black salt. This household method soaks the fruit before cooking.
Green-fig konfyt
Whole unripe figs are softened and cooked in cinnamon and ginger syrup as a refrigerator-only South African konfyt; this method does not provide a shelf-stable canning process.
Rårörda lingon
A Swedish uncooked lingonberry accompaniment: frozen berries are mixed with granulated sugar and thawed, with occasional stirring, until the sugar dissolves.
Green-fig konfyt without lime soak
Hard green figs are parboiled and cooked whole in a lemon-sharpened sugar syrup as a refrigerator-only South African konfyt; the method does not establish shelf-stable canning.
Elevated risk
Apple jelly without added pectin
A clear jelly made from tart-apple juice, sugar and optional strained lemon juice. This batch uses a stated fruit-to-water preparation, gel endpoint, hot fill and altitude-adjusted boiling-water process.
Orange marmalade
Orange marmalade suspends thin strips of citrus peel in a sweet gel. This navel-orange batch includes pulp and lemon and is preserved in a boiling-water canner.
Dulce de membrillo, pressure-cooker method
Dulce de membrillo is quince cooked with sugar into a firm paste for slicing. This family method softens the fruit in a pressure cooker, then blends it and leaves it to set.
Aam papad
Ripe mango pulp spread thin and dried as a chewy fruit leather. This entry records one controlled unsweetened experiment and distinguishes it from Bengali sun-dried aamshotto and sweetened or spiced variants.
Amchur powder from sun-dried unripe mango
Thin slices of sour unripe mango are sun-dried over four days and ground into a tangy powder, following a five-fruit account published with an Indian mango study.

Elevated risk
Dried fruit and berries (Viking Age, reconstructed)
