Not a lot of invention has gone on in our kitchen this week- we have been busy training for a half marathon next month, and as the runs have got longer and longer our kitchen time has got shorter and shorter! So to celebrate the beginning of Autumn, and the harvest of Summer's bounty, we've put together this collection of jams and chutneys so you can enjoy the Summer all through the darker months to come... just click on the captions and you'll get to the recipes:
What's your favourite home made preserve?

My Grandmother's quince jelly :) These look amazing... such wonderful flavours!
ReplyDeleteOoh quince jelly; yummy! I would love to have quinces in my garden.
ReplyDeleteI was blog hoppin to day and came across your blog - glad I did! These look great! Today I posted a Chia Seed Giveaway on my blog if you want to enter but the reason I mention it is to answer your questions about preserves I have made - well, I made this Strawberry Chia Jam a while back which I linked to in today's post when I speak about the giveaway that turned out super awesome and it was so simple! YAY!
ReplyDeleteWow! Chia jam sounds brilliant; I guess you can make chia jams raw as you already have the jelly part? Will check it out. Thanks for commenting :)
DeleteSuperfun roundup! My dad used to make the most yumful chutneys and marmalades, often spiked or spiced. My favorite was his simple chunky orange marmalade...every time I have English muffins I wish I had his recipe so I could pile on some sunshiney sweet orange goodness! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments. Marmalade is so delicious, and great on muffins or crumpets! I also like it in a sandwich with veggie sausage; sounds weird, but really nice. Marmalade was originally from Portugal, where it was made with quinces. Maybe in January when we get Valencia oranges, I'll make a marmalade recipe.... :) And you're right; the damson jelly is very good with vegan icecream (perhaps even better with vegan pancakes too ;) )
