That all sounds awesome, but chili jelly?? Wtf? Never ward is that before haha
Re: Baking with mother. - MrsMidnight - 18-12-2011
Chilli jelly is so weird! Spicy yet cooling!
Re: Baking with mother. - Dum-Dum - 18-12-2011
Mmmmm ginger marmalade. I love rhubarb and ginger marmalade but the rhubarb thing in our garden barely yields enough for a decent crumble far less enough to do marmalade as well

Yeah i'd never heard of it before either, tasty though. Just remembered the runner bean chutney we made this summer too, home-made (read: "cheap" lol) presents ftw!
Hmmm, trying to upload but photobucket has decided i'm signing in from a mobile and won't accept files sent as anything other than MMS... O.o
Fooby help!

Not quite baking but I've made some cider this year (both apple and pear). I bottled it yesterday afternoon and have now got 6 pints of pear cider and 18 pints of apple (oh and a demi-john of apple as well - approx 4.5l). Give it another week to mature and it will be ready for Christmas Day
D I *may* have already sampled it and it nice, quite dry, almost wine-like.
Re: Baking with mother. - Dum-Dum - 18-12-2011
How many apples did you need to make that much cider as ive been tempted to do it with the apples out of my garden. Also how did you press them

I used one bin liner (well, actually a charity bag) per Demi-John (each of which gives approx 6/7 pints). So it's a fair amount of apples, although mine all came from one tree, a guy at work said he'd bring me a few apples in, was expecting a carrier bag or so, and he turned up with 2 charity bags full
hock:. As for pressing them, I didn't, I cheated and used a fruit juicer and a sieve.Followed these "instructions" http://www.instructables.com/id/Simple- ... /?ALLSTEPS
Re: Baking with mother. - Dum-Dum - 18-12-2011
Awesome, added link to my favorites as im gonna have a bash at that next year.
Re: Baking with mother. - MrsMidnight - 18-12-2011
My dad makes vodka for Christmas every year
Re: Baking with mother. - Poodle - 19-12-2011
We're making cider next year, got a customer that gives me a carrier bag of apples every week and throws tree-loads away. Elderberry wine is on the list too. We've already got blackberry vodka and raspberry gin(?) in the cupboard. At least I think it's gin, forgot to label them lol, should make it more interesting when it comes to taste-testing - "guess the dodgy home-brew..." heh heh.
Can't believe no-one else is going to comment on the hearts on Dum-dum's pies...
