Buckle, Coridal, and Jam

yes, my morning was very busy with all these things and many more besides. So while the Jam boiled on the stove, the buckle sat patiently for its turn in the oven while the bottles for the cordial (and the jam jars) were sterilising.

So lets take a look at what I did today:

First up was making buckle as I had a lot of rhubard left over from the jam.
Here is the bottom of it waiting patiently for the rhubard to be added.


Now it has the rhubard added just waiting for the top to be put on before being put in the oven.




With the top all ready to roll, into the oven it goes.










Here is the final production!





























So while the buckle bakes, the jam continued to boil it was time for the cordial turn to step up and be next. I started it on Friday, and bottled it today, so from 1.5l of water, I made 2.5 bottles for future use




















And last but not least, the jam. So I made rhubard and ginger jam which I have to say is decent for my second try at jam (first batch was rhubard, strawberry, and ginger)
