Ask Bio about this range · Jams
Turkish breakfast tables are built around a spread of small jam dishes rather than a single jar, and reçel is the sweet anchor of that spread. Made by slow-cooking whole or halved fruit in sugar until the pieces stay intact rather than collapsing into a paste, Turkish jam is looser and fruitier than many British preserves, meant to be spooned generously onto fresh bread alongside cheese and olives. Turkish Online Market carries this style of jam for UK households who want the same breakfast their family grew up with, or for anyone curious about flavours such as rose or dried fig that rarely appear on supermarket shelves here.
The jam range on the site
Sitting inside Sweet Breakfast, part of the wider Breakfast section, the jams category currently lists over 20 products from Bodrum, Koska and Burcu. Sour cherry is the most popular flavour, available as Bodrum's 380g jar, Koska's traditional preserve and Burcu's larger 700g tub, alongside strawberry from all three brands in various jar sizes. Beyond the everyday flavours, Bodrum stocks a distinctive 380g rose jam and a dried fig jam, while Burcu and Koska both offer apricot, and Koska rounds things out with a classic 760g strawberry jar for bigger households.
Choosing, storing and serving Turkish jam
Sour cherry and strawberry are the safest starting points if this is your first Turkish jam, giving a familiar fruit in a slightly less sweet, more textured form than typical UK jams. Rose jam is worth trying once you are used to the range, as its floral flavour works best in small spoonfuls stirred into yoghurt or spread thinly with kaymak-style cream. Unopened jars keep well in a cool cupboard for many months; once opened, store in the fridge and always use a clean, dry spoon to stop mould forming early. Serve reçel alongside white cheese, olives, tomato and cucumber for a proper Turkish breakfast spread, or stir a spoonful into porridge or tea for a simpler everyday use.

Jams — frequently asked questions
How is Turkish reçel used in everyday cooking?›
Turkish jam is spooned onto fresh bread as part of a breakfast spread alongside cheese, olives and tomatoes, rather than being the main topping on toast alone. A spoonful can also be stirred into yoghurt, porridge or tea for extra sweetness.
Which jam flavours pair well together?›
Sour cherry and rose jam pair naturally with a mild white cheese, while strawberry and apricot suit a simpler bread and butter breakfast. Serving two or three flavours together, as is traditional, lets everyone pick their favourite.
What sub-categories sit alongside jams?›
Jams sits within the Sweet Breakfast section of Breakfast, next to categories such as honeys and tahini and molasses, so a full Turkish breakfast spread can be built from a handful of related pages on the site.
Which brands make up the jam range?›
The range is built mainly around Bodrum, Koska and Burcu, three well-known Turkish producers offering sour cherry, strawberry, apricot, rose and dried fig jams in a variety of jar sizes to suit different households.
