Welcome.

I was noticing the numbers of haws on the trees yesterday and thought it was a shame that they aren't worth using. Crab apples are around in abundance as well. I foresee chilli jelly being made in this house soon.


Recipe, please!

Take however many crab apples you can fit in the pot, add a couple of habanero or scotch bonnet chillis and a little water. Boil until mushy and then strain through a jelly bag or muslin. Finely chop chillis, I use lots but its up to you really, add to the liquid. Measure liquid and for every pint use a pound of sugar and put it all in a maslin pan and boil until setting point reached.

Fantastic with pate or cheese.

If you haven't got an easy source of crab apples, cooker will do the same job.

Braindead. How much is a little water? Cook until sort of apple sauce consistency?

A coffee cup full? Until the apples at mushy. No need to peel them or anything, just cut up into chunks if they big.

Too late for this year, but have seen recipe for Hawthorn Ketchup, I think - possibly in the Pam Corbin/River Cottage preserving book.
