Here is a compilation of jams, they were a success among my friends too!!!!
I usually use a 3:1 ratio, 3 parts fruit 1 part sugar, and pectin to jellify.
This one isn't very appealing to the eye, but the taste is just fab!!!!
I had lots of persimmons and many kiwis, I would have never been able to eat them before they went bad, so I decided to try and put them together. I also added some vanilla seeds.....delicious!!!!!
I am lucky enough to have a small peach tree on the terrace......
and a wonderful big vase of strawberries......I usually pick up the ready ones, freeze them, and when I have enough I can make either marmalade or liquor...
The following one is just that: my strawberries, my peaches, an apple and mint!
I also like making strawberry glaze, perfect for filling cakes and cupcakes....
It's longer to make compared to jams, as you have to squish all the fruit through a sieve, but it's rather beautiful and smooth looking, and oh, so delicious!!!
These were mixed berries: strawberries, blueberries and raspberries with lemon juice
last year I went with my "sister" (she's my best friend so we call each other sis) to a small village up the mountains. There you may find lots and lots of elderberries, they are a gift of nature, and they are free, so we picked up quit a lot of them. getting all the berries off the stems is a bit of work, but the result was great! I mixed them with strawberries
....perfect on scones!!!!
Here I experimented with pineapple and mangoes, with some ginger for a twist!
Absolutely fantastic!!!!!
And here's the one I did a few days ago, pineapple and strawberries with ginger
