Why? Because you can! And pickle, and jam, or otherwise celebrate the resurgence of the domestic arts our forebears held so dear. Put on your best apron and step into our kitchen, won't you?
The ultimate use-up what you've got jam! Frozen rhubarb, can of pineapple, strawberries and nectar from homemade strawberry liqueur. Big, delicious results from a fast and easy jam.
The season for golden raspberries is fleeting so take advantage of it with this confluence of berry and pear. And toss out the toast! Serve it as shown here, spooned atop sour cream with walnuts. C'mon, live a little!
I love this jam because it's both easy to make and super versatile. It's lovely with breakfast items like English muffins or scones, but it gets really exciting when you pair it with chevre and candied bacon.
