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

colorful printed wax paper, outdated little jars and labels, to help you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.
