(few glasses of sloe gin & ill admit anything!)Been dabbling with wild food for a few years, but im no expert (still learning) but I do enjoy it...i dont know why but things just taste better when they are free & homemade!
I've joined to learn more about finding the best places to look around swindon & perhaps some new recipes.
At the moment ive got sloe's, haws, blackberrys & rosehips in the freezer, ive found a pear tree recently which made a lovley pear crumble & I might have a go at perry too (if anyone has any tips?)
Im planning on getting some elderberries before they go over (which isnt long) & some crab apples to make jelly
Ive also got a hive of bees & im hoping to get some orange mead going soon.....Oh and of course...sloe gin & vodka.
I'd like to hear anyones opion on haw jelly ? never tried it before, some say its horrible & not worth the effort, others say its a bit like marmalade which i like !.
Well thats me (without going into my life history, which i wouldnt want to bore you all with anyway) Nice to be here to be here.......NICE...
(thanks)
I am sure if you type Haws, in the search box, you will find some more info about those. I will do that myself, as I know nothing about them!
