So, I had a knock on my door this morning and my favourite neighbour brought me some beautiful strawberries! Usually that would be great, but my dad also gave me a quart of strawberries so …

Now, anybody can make strawberry jam … or any jam, really. It’s all pretty much fruit, sugar and pectin. So I thought I’d experiment with flavours and the result is deliciously successful!

Recipe: 2 cups pureed strawberries, 1 1/2 cups pureed blueberries, 1 1/2 cups pureed rhubarb, 2 sprigs of mint leaves, 7 cups of sugar, 1 package Fruit Pectin. Follow the cooking directions on the pectin pack. Pour into clean jars and seal.

And then …. ENJOY!
