If I melt preserves/jam will it gel again once it has cooled?

 

I needed seedless raspberry jam/preserves for a recipe but what I purchased was not seedless.  I'd like an easy way to remove the seeds.

 

My fault for looking but not seeing.

What is good for the goose today will also be good for the gander tomorrow.

Heat the jam gently, don't boil, until it's soft enough to press through a sieve.  It should jell again fairly quickly.

War is not a video game others play to entertain us. “Gamifying” war strips away the humanity of real people and is a profound moral failure.
