Black and Blue......
Oh.
My.
God.
Sublime. Absolutely SUBLIME. Its better then sex! LOL
Turned out the best so far - it is GORGEOUS - I used half blueberries and half blackberries - zest and juice of one lemon and threw in a cinnamon stick while it bubbles away - mashed half the fruit as it cooked, left some whole.
It wouldn;t set, so used half a pouch of pectin.
Oh my god. I have DIED and gone to JAM Heaven.
It is taking HUGE restraint not to have a proper sample, on toast - but I am happy with my sips from the spoon after all is jarred. And I can just say this one is divine.
Black and Blue. uh huh. There will be more of this to come!! I think that will be a staple.
SO now, I am going to start playing with it to try and make it low sugar - so those links are perfect timing. Will have a good look. I want to be able to enjoy this, and wouldn't be able to with the amount of sugar - but now I have my fave, time to start playing mad scientist!!!
Thanks!!
Hope you are enjoying your chilled day. I am. ANd the house smells lovely.
Going to throw on a pot of nice strng french roast, put my feet up and enjoy a movie or something.
Ahhh. I love B/H weekends.
SB - how did your Pear Yummy stuff come out? Pear and Basil sound reallyinteresting....I will play with my pears - butI just have a hunch they would require a huge amount of sugar as there is no pear flavour, so may just leave it.
Anyhooo....happy days!
