Wondering why the top layer of my raspberry jam from last year looks dried out like this… is it just from the exposure to air in the headspace? Is it safe to eat? If I scrape off the top it looks totally normal. There is definitely some ‘settling’ though, where it seems more juicy at the bottom and more dried out and seedy at the top.

I’m not finding any reliable way to clear this out, and my phone practically stops working when the storage is so full. Ugh!
