More carrots.....

I'm (sadly) very excited about a recipe I've just found for carrot & rhubarb jam! Is there no limit to the talent of this humble orange vegetable? It would appear not!
I won't have time to make any up before our next event at Park Hill Farm, Market Drayton, on Monday but I'll post the recipe once I've tried it!
Woo hoo...all hail the mighty carrot.

Experimental Day

Reluctant to throw away some over ripe nectarines I've had hanging round, I skinned & chopped the fruit & popped in some of the few blueberries my small plant struggled to produce. Slightly less than equivalent amount of sugar was added ( the nectarines were very sweet) & I cooked the jam as per the strawberry recipe here. Only made 2 jars but YUM!
So that's a winner.

nectarines and blueberries ready to go!

Mr P was given some greengages yesterday by a work colleague so I've jammed those too and added some slivered almonds. Tastes like gooseberry crumble & (strangely) custard.
Heavenly!
