I was given a whole load of gooseberries this week, and have started to use them by making jam (in my jam maker)
Although it took me 3 hours all in all (mainly prep) it has been quite theraputic as I haven't made jam for ages. Hope it sets
My only problem is that I still have 6 lbs in the fridge that need topping and tailing for wine. I really want to put them into the freezer to soften them for mashing, but there is no room so will need to spend hours at it again tomorrow.
Still, so lovely to be using fresh seasonal fruit - it will be a lovely memory of hot summer days during the colder months.
