A place for recording your jam and jellying exploits...
I just made a micro batch of blackberry and apple jam. I have loads of berries, but only one cooking apple, and wanted to make a jar to take to my Mum next week. So I scaled the recipe down to the apple I had, and managed to make two jars! I'll give the other to my sister, who we are visiting after Mum.
I've got a lot of berries left, and plan to make proper big batches of both jam and jelly later. The berries will freeze until I'm ready.
I've already made redcurrant jelly this year, and have plans for crab apple jelly, and rosehip jelly, and maybe some plum jam, all depending on what fruit I can forage. Then there are also figs from NT's Dad's tree for Fig jam. And I'll buy some apples if I have to, to try a recipe in my new WI book, for apple, cinnamon and raisin jam.
When we have a garden, I'll grow quinces. I adore quince jelly.
