Jam Making Recipes




Picture showing a variety of homemade jamsThere is no way that the ultimate afternoon tea would not come with a plateful of freshly baked scones, a dish of clotted cream and a jar of strawberry jam. Sweet jams have become an integral part of cake making, tarts and sweet pastries, being a popular accompaniment to croissants and morning toast, or a topping to a cheesecake.

Arguably the ultimate preserve recipe and a favourite filling for a classic Victoria sponge cake, strawberry jam is regularly served with scones and fresh clotted cream. However, some sweet preserves are equally at home on a plate of roast meat, such as cranberry jam (with turkey), and apple and rosemary jam (with pork).

A sweet fruit preserve is not a complicated thing to make and at its most simplistic, is just a mixture of fruit and sugar, boiled together to form a thick consistency. Once you have made a few batches of jam, you will feel more confident and may even like to play around with some of the flavours, adding in new ingredients to suit your palate.
