JAM SESSION



Another kind neighbor gifted us with these prunes. This lady is almost 80 y.o. and her vegetable garden seems to come out from some book of the RHS. 
Each time I compare hers to ours I feel miserable. We have salads, carrots, tomatoes, zucchini and weeds. She has 2 m high tomatoes (once even won a competition for the taste) and her cabbages are so big you can easily imagine to find a baby under their leaves. No need to say she has no weeds at all.

















Luckily for us she's so kind and so we can taste her prunes. She gave us a lot so I made this fool proof jam .






PRUNES JAM

1 kg prunes (cut in small pieces and without stones)
500 g caster sugar
pectin (I use Fruttapec 2:1 Cameo)
Just mix the ingredients, bring to boil, boil 3 minutes, then put in clean and dry pots, close and sterilize in boiling water for 20 minutes.
