Strawberry Conserve

As I promised, I continue to post what I’ve made out of my successful PYO trip harvest. This is a relatively easy to make strawberry conserve. If you don’t like it sweet you can always use pectin instead of jam sugar.

Elderflower Cordial

The elderflower bloom is in its’ full swing.  If you haven’t done it yet, is still a bit of time to collect some flowers for this delicious home made cordial. For me this is the perfect summer drink.

This recipe comes from my sister-in-law’s grandma, who has a pair of magical hands when it comes to cooking or preserving food.
