Rhubarb Obsession Continues...


Today I became a woman

I made JAM! Rhubarb and Rosemary Jam and it was a celebrated success.

All you had to do was let 450 g of rhubarb simmer with 450 g of caster sugar, stirring continuously and then grate 1 lemon rind (which i found out today a little bit late is the yellow bit of the lemon skin) into it with a little fresh rosemary, bring it to a boil for 10 minutes and VOILA!

It made alot less than expected so next time i would probs do about 500g of rhubarb and sugar. A half filled jar looks a bit stingey.

And yes I did have a grand time labelling them and yes that makes me super cool and not a nerd with too much time on my hands. Ya dig?
