2006 - Jams & Jellies
« on: September 01, 2006, 15:38:25 »
Thought that I'd start a new thread, we had one for chutneys and pickles, but nothing for jams - so here goes:

1. Redcurrant Jam
2. Mirrabelle Plum Jam
3. Lemon Curd
4. Orange Curd
5. Lime curd

again my 1st attempts at anything like this, so far all have tasted good, also made plum jam in diabetic method, and low sugar method

Still about 50lbs plums on the trees next door, so more jam to follow!

Kathi ;D

More jam - this time it's Damson - my favourite - (don't tell Paulines7 though) - there's a rumour that my Mum's side of the family steal damsons from my Dad's side!  :o

Must admit these were a swap for some plums- not stolen!   ;D

 :o All the jams look very impressive!!
My idea was to build Liverpool into a bastion of invincibility. Napoleon had that idea. He wanted to conquer the bloody world. I wanted Liverpool to be untouchable. My idea was to build Liverpool up and up until eventually everyone would have to submit and give in. Bill Shankly.

Prink, I have brought the 'preserving chillis' thread to the top of the recipe board as the chilli jelly recipe is there!  ;D

For a selection of my jam recipes, see my blog!  ;D ;D

Chris, you don't even need a fruit tree - I have got most of my preserving fruit for NOWT from the hedgerows!  :)

Anyway here is my contribution. Feel a bit intimidated by EJ and Prink's number of entries so may go back and do pretties of all my jellies.

Lottie-less until I can afford a house with it's own garden.
