Blackberries, plums, damsons, apples, pears and cobnuts are a staple in our house. From pies to crumbles and jams to jellies we treat our selves every year!
I wonder how many kids today are enjoying a day out finding and picking fruit and nuts then the fun of all making something together, my favourite part!
This is a simple Damson Cheese! (it's not really cheese)
Basic recipe once fruit is sieved is 2.75 pints of juice to 1kg of granulated sugar and cook on a rolling heat until thick enough to stick to wooden spoon, between 40mins to an hour dependent on size of pan. This is not a jam and doesn't keep like a jam, store chilled and use within a month!
Have fun!
