With heaps of cheap fruit around over the last few months we have been reviving the ancient art of preserving.
We have -
Quince Conserve (fantastic.. the colour.. the colour)
Plum and sherry jam (yum)
Quinces in Syrup (uber yum)
Spiced Peaches (drool)
Brandied Apricots (from dried fruit not fresh... a year or 2 to age and they are fantastic)
They are all hot bottled into the jars and form a vacuum seal so they should last for years.
Anyone else make their own jams and conserves?
With the bread, beer, cider, mead, vege garden, fruit trees and now this, I feel like I'm in an episode of the Good Life and Felicity Kendall will walk through the front door any moment.
Cheers
Dave
