jam making ::

I used the basic jam recipe that I used last year, however mid way through I took a peek at Pam Corbin's recipe in the River Cottage, Preserving Handbook, to discover her's is quite different. It was too late this time, so I guess there will have to be more strawberry picking and jam making later in the year! Along with a whole lot of scones and victoria sponges and homemade jammy dodgers and jam tarts to use it all up!

  1. Can't wait to pick strawberries. Looks like you have a very beautiful place to get your jam staple. Yum.
