HOUSE TIP

TO DOUBLE-CHECK IF THE JAM IS SET, PUT A DOLLOP ONTO A COLD PLATE. LET IT COOL A LITTLE, THEN DRAW A LINE THROUGH WITH YOUR FINGER – IT SHOULD STAY SEPARATED.

CRAB APPLE JELLY

Makes 3 x 300ml / ½ pint jars

2kg / 4lb 4oz crab apples, or Bramley apples if you can’t get them

500g / 1lb caster sugar

½ lemon

Wash the picked fruit and remove any bruised apples. Place in a large pot, cover with water and bring to the boil. Turn down to a slow simmer, and cook for about 30 minutes, until the fruit is soft and has broken down.

Strain the fruit through a fine muslin cloth overnight (or you can use a square of an old bed sheet), making sure to collect the strained liquid. Don’t be tempted to squeeze the bag or the liquid will go cloudy.

Add the sugar to the liquid in a pan and heat to a simmer. Using a metal spoon, keep skimming off any scum that rises to the surface. After about 90 minutes, the mixture will have thickened. Add the juice of the lemon which will help to set the jelly, then remove from the heat. Pour into jars which have been sterilised – the easiest way to do this is to put them through a dishwasher cycle. Refrigerate for at least 12 hours to allow it to set before use.
