Re: Jam making this morningLooking good Richard. I made damson a couple of weeks ago which is lovely. Such a wonderful colour and you can't beat that sharp sweetness.
I am now a widow and live with my memories.
Re: Jam making this morningScrummy, can`t beat a bit of fresh bread, proper butter and homemade jam.
Re: Jam making this morningMmmmm - I made 2 batches of plum jam the other day, although that isn't as much as it sounds as my jam maker only makes a small amount at a time!
Yummy though! Helen xx

Used to make it every year until my neighbour cut down their damson tree (which used to lean over the fence)
While most bought jams are too sweet for me, I've found Tiptree or Duchy damson are great so I resort to buying these days. No hedgerow ones round here, sadly Enjoy!
Re: Jam making this morningRichard,
I was hoping to make damson jam, but the tree produced very little fruit this year [center][/center]Davina
Re: Jam making this morningI made a tiny batch of bramble jelly last night, there wasn't much and I didn't
want to waste any by boiling it too long, thus it hasn't quite set enough, but.... I just had some on toast this morning & its absolutely gorgeous, I haven't made this for many many years & had forgotten how special it is. I may go out it the rain now & pick the last of the blackberries to make a bit more. "He who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men.
