Notes about Recipes in this book

• Blueberry maple jam 2.0

  • Frogcake on August 20, 2017

    A very nice blueberry jam recipe , which is a bit different from the standard. Yum! The jam simmered for about half an hour on the stove. I did not use the tea bag method -works out fine if you simmer the chunks of Apple and cinnamon stick with the blueberries. You just fish everything out when you're ready to jar the jam. Would make this version again.

• Herbes salées

  • eliza on November 08, 2016

    This recipe is a good way to preserve extra herbs at the end of the season to use through the winter. It is also known as Quebec salted herbs. It's available on their website Well Preserved. You basically chop up herbs and greens finely and mix or layer them with salt and put it in the fridge. It lasts for months and can be used in place of salt when making stews, soups, omelettes, etc. Or, if you just want the herbs, put it in a fine strainer and wash out the salt.

• Plum jam with cinnamon and orange

  • Frogcake on August 04, 2020

    I will be making this jam every year now. It’s so delicious! I used half plums and peaches, following the recipe otherwise but added grated orange rind (whole orange) and a quarter tsp cardamom.
