Favourite Jam

Tiptree Little Scarlet Strawberry, Wild Blueberry, Ginger, Sweet Tip Raspberry, Tiny Tip Raspberry are all loved in this house.
Waitrose do an Orange Curd, beautiful on crackers.
Tiptree have also started making a Salted Caramel Spread, which is so good it should probably be banned!
My Auntie's homemade Rhubarb and Vanilla curd, once opened it only lasts a week....apparently, it's never around long enough for us to find out!

Sainsburys do a delicious ginger marmalade....I prefer conserves to jam as theres less sugar...

Lidl sour cherry conserve,aldi used to do a really good one,won awards but they have discontinued it.pity

I love all jams and marmalade, preferably grapefruit and quite bitter. Peanut butter and honey (together on toast). Lemon curd.
I make most of my jams and marmalade and I too like a bit of a tang so adore damson or black currant. I no longer make damson though as getting the stones out is too much if a faff, any tips on making this chore quicker and easier?
When making plum jam I like to crack open the stones and add a few kernels to the jam, gives that bitter kick that I like.
Ooh, just thought, love black cherry too but buy it, those stones again.

Tip tree " little scarlet" or Bonne Maman " black cherry conserve" yum! Pity I'm on a diet

If you have a W.I market near you all their preserves & chutneys are gorgeous, all home made. We have one on Thursday morning. They also sell plants, flowers, vegetables & cakes. I don't know how they manage to have so much stuff every week without fail

my mum's homemade blackberry and apple jam - fantastic. unfortunately if I want it these days I've got to make it myself!!

I like most jams, especially blackcurrant. My mother was very sniffy about plum jam, which I like a lot, I think it's because of the war, when it was possibly one of the very few options.

Tesco used to do a Polish Black Cherry jam that was to die for. They also used to do Paddington Bear's Breakfast Marmalade which was delicious, sadly they don't stock either now.

I love strawberry jam - which I don't make.

I make loads and loads of various eccentric type jams, researching old and forgotten fruit. My favourite homemade jam is bullace. It is heavenly, like apricots on steroids! They grow wild in hedgerows - the little plum/apricot fruit that fall all over the roads in September/October. They are really delicious. We have them stewed and, of course, jammed.

I usually buy Tiptree or Bonne Maman strawberry or Raspberry but really only use it for 'jam sponge'. I like my jam sweet so try not to eat it very often.

I like marmalade though!!

Tiptree Little Scarlet strawberry is the best, although I am partial to the apricot too.

Home-made apricot or peach every time! Home-made berry jams are yummy too. In fact, most home-made preserves are pretty delicious.

Bonne Maman peach or apricot jams fro France although you can usually buy them here now these are fab on scones. For toast its Tiptree orange and tangerine marmalade. I hate blackcurrant jam but have not tried damson

DH has found it even though I hid it at back of the fridge,he loved it too

I buy Mackays too Antjexix, but have not tried Bramble, I normally buy Strawberry or Marmalade. I too had never tasted anything like it and the good thing is that I don't need a lot on the bread/toast to get the taste unlike other jams. I will have to try the Bramble now and buy some crusty rolls, yummy.

Love it ninthenana, just the sort of thing I'd do. . My favourite is bramble jelly, just need to smell it to be reminded of picking fruit with my Mum and her making the jelly afterwards. Always makes me smile.

Where in Crieff? will be there for weekend! ?

Slightly off topic.
I bought two packs of finest scones in Tesco Tuesday, Un be known to me I'd inadvertently picked up one pack of fruit and one cheese.
H has just presented me with two cheese scones and strawberry jam
"Didn't you notice when you cut them ?" I asked
Didn't you notice when you bought them" he replied
End of conversation Yes I ate them.

My granny's home-made jam from home-grown raspberries on her home-baked scones...what a memory that is! She used to make delicious apple jelly too.

I have never tried damson jam,so that will be something I'll have to find. An acquaintance in the village sells homemade jam so I'll have to pop round. I must agree,homemade does taste best

Oh I like Lemon Curd too Stansgran spread really thick on warm toast. I am drooling now.

My DM made beautiful bramble jelly and lemon curd I made apple butter recently. There's a deli in Crieff which sells homemade raspberry jam. Wonderful.
