Jam Or Preserves

Jam Or Preserves

 A resident of Golden Bay has turned fruit and vegetables into preserves, with colourful covers tied with string. Making jams, chutneys, pickles and preserves is a way of turning surplus vegetables into homemade goods, and saving on expensive store-bought alternatives. New Zealand recipe books have traditionally carried pages of recipes for jams and preserves. Even Brett’s colonists guide had 30 pages of instructions for making preserves.This item has been provided for private study purposes (such as school projects, family and local history research) and any published reproduction (print or electronic) may infringe copyright law. It is the responsibility of the user of any material to obtain clearance from the copyright holder.Local craft stores come with an infinite supply of raffia, bows, colorful printed wax paper, outdated little jars and labels, to help you package this little item beautifully to decorate the open shelves to your kitchen or offer being a gift. If you want to go old school, do not put lids on your jars: cut slightly cardboard circle to fit the the top jar perfectly and covers with wax paper or colorful plastic wrapping; tie with raffia or brown lightly string. Ensure you tie it very tightly for the jar neck. When any air gets in following your jars are sterilized, the preserves could easily get moldy.
