Pectin is a naturally occurring carbohydrate found in fruit cell walls, sold as a white powder to set jams, jellies, and marmalades. One metric cup (250 ml) of powdered pectin weighs around 150 grams or 5.29 ounces. Most jam recipes call for one packet (about 49 g) per batch.

Pectin quantity determines the firmness of a jam: too little and the preserve stays runny; too much and it sets like rubber. Measuring by weight keeps results consistent between batches and across different brands.
