Bramble and Rowan Jelly

[dylan5588]

225g Blackberries

225g Rowan berries

450g jam sugar

Juice from 2 lemons

 

Wash fruit and cook gently in 200ml water for 20 to 30 minutes, mash the berries to extract as much juice as possible, strain liquid through a muslin strainer, do not force it through, allow to drain through, Add the sugar and lemon juice to the liquid, return to the heat and warm until sugar is completely dissolved, now boil rapidly for about 15 minutes or until setting point is reached, a good test for this is, drip some liquid on a chilled saucer, drag a spoon through it, if a skin has formed and wrinkles, setting point has been reached. Now pour into pre heated sterilised jars and seal.

This jelly is really good with any game meat, especially Venison, or just a nice change from marmalade on your toast for breakfast!! I hope you enjoy.

It is!!!! Oh I forgot to mention, its best not to use expanding ammunition when out shooting the berries, as they cause too much fruit wastage!!!!!!!!
