  • About

Fruit from mountain regions of France is highly esteemed, just as we value Scottish raspberries because their flavour is more intense. Perhaps because of its usefulness in pâtisserie there seems to be more jelly in France than here. This kind is especially good.

Ingredients

  • 1 kg( lb) red currants
  • 500 g(1

Method

Don’t bother to sprig the red or white currants. Wash briefly in cold water and place in a preserving pan with the raspberries and ½ wineglass water. Cook gently over moderate heat for 10–15 minutes until cooked and the juice runs.

Tip the fruit into a jelly bag or a double layer of fine net
