For the sheer pleasure of being able to lick the spoon between testing, and then be able to finish off the last bit of jam in the bottom of the pan.

Its just soooooo nice, and easy, and cheap!

Just saying, like

Oh Worra, I am going to have to steal that phrase, it's a classic!

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 07/05/2012 22:00

Yum. Do you have a recipe? Does is use real ginger eyes half a kilo of ginger in freezer due to online shopping

ItsAllGoingToBeFine · 07/05/2012 22:01

Is it really easy? I thought jam making involved copper pans and jam thermometers?

lucyellensmumnamechange · 07/05/2012 22:01

I just posted it in the recipes section, but sorry, you need crystalline ginger. Saying that i think some of the recipes use fresh.

lola I have no idea why that made me snort my tea out of my nose Grin

Grockle · 07/05/2012 22:43

That is my favourite jam ever! Can you link to the recipe, LEM?

Pixel · 07/05/2012 22:45

I actually made some last year but it's still in the cupboard, I never got round to trying it. I suppose I ought to now!
To people who don't like rhubarb, try making welsh rhubarb cake and you might change your mind. Smile

MrsSnaplegs · 07/05/2012 22:47

Worra - snorting with laughter and DH says he needs to steal that phrase Grin

You dont have to add ginger if you don't like it, but if you don't like rhubarb you're a bit buggered with this recipe

I might have to look that cake up, the rhubarb in my garden is of triffid proportions

OP posts:
WorraLiberty · 07/05/2012 22:49

I should probably add at this point that I've never tried shitting in my hands and clapping Grin

Although the night is still young....
