Bitton Strawberry and Vanilla Jam
My grandmother’s recipe captures the flavour of summer. Sweeten sponges, fruit tarts, biscuits, pancakes and scones. Whip up a dollop in a glass of milk with ice-cream for a milkshake. Add to hot porridge with a swirl of cream or eat it straight off the spoon. Bon appétit.
