I also prefer the French way of using less sugar. I'm going to try a plum fruit "cheese" next with no sugar at all! :)suejhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04072740351690646281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3063789335725081371.post-9277529864469083852014-07-10T23:41:27.841+02:002014-07-10T23:41:27.841+02:00So annoying when you can't get out to deal wit...So annoying when you can't get out to deal with the jungle developing under your eyes...but at leadst your friends had the best of the weather.<br />I've used Perpetua's recipe too...works well here where it is difficult to get a rolling boil.<br />I'm glad I can comment again....one of those Blogger/ Wordpress things, I suppose...Helen Devriesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3063789335725081371.post-86172991326463988332014-07-10T15:36:30.751+02:002014-07-10T15:36:30.751+02:00You're welcome, Sue.

The same recipe works well with other soft fruits, raspberry being particularly scrumptious. :-)Perpetuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01214396019726161983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3063789335725081371.post-8468897082739186952014-07-10T15:11:03.722+02:002014-07-10T15:11:03.722+02:00Hello Perpetua, hope your weather improves - then ...Hello Perpetua, hope your weather improves - then perhaps we can both get the sandals out. :) The apricot jam I made used your French jam recipe - super rich flavour and not too sweet.
