More jam

As promised, here is the nectarine jam and the plum jam. I didn't do step by step photos this time. The cooking procedures are the same for most jams :)

It all tastes yummy. I'm now scouting the fruit shop and markets for other fruits i can turn into jams.





Until next time

Yes, it does.
Have you ever heard of povidla? I believe it's "powidel" in Austrian German. It's a traditional plum jam that's cooked slowly for very, very long - three days maybe! It can also be made from pears or maybe other fruit as well.
I've never made it myself, but it's my favourite jam, so one day I'd like to learn. :-) Because, I believe, with all that slow cooking, you don't have to add any sugar to it (although you can), it sort of caramelises in itself, and it has a very rich taste.

They look good.
That sounds good too Hana. I will have to try it one day when can get cheap plums. Wonder if it will work with fijoas? I make fijoa jam every year.It is lovely.
