  • This surprised me! Easy to make, quick to set with an almost pineapple taste!
    MARROW & GINGER JAM
    INGREDIENTS
    5 unwaxed lemons
    2kg marrow , peeled and cut into 1cm pieces
    2kg sugar (or 2kg jam sugar with added pectin - leave out the pectin below!)
    2 sachets of pectin
    80-100g root ginger, peeled and grated
    METHOD
    Pare the zest from the lemons with a peeler, then juice them.
    Chop the parings.
    Tie the shells and pips into a muslin bag.
    Put the marrow into a preserving pan with 4TBSP of the lemon juice and about 50ml of water
    Cook on a medium heat, stirring often, until the pieces are turning translucent and soft.
    Mix the sugar and pectin.
    Stir in the sugar & pectin, the rest of the juice, the zest, the ginger, and the muslin bag.
    Stir until the sugar dissolves.
    Bring to the boil, then simmer until the marrow has softened completely and the jam has reached setting point.
    Pot the jam into hot jars.
    The flavour of the jam will mature a bit over the next few months, so better to leave it a while if you can resist it.

    Hi Steve, your collection of cooking utensils much be as big as my toolkit 😉. I have never heard of cooking string before? It was a harsh reminder about the heat… I got scars from hot toffee. I like the two camera angle views 👍🏻

      Cheers Nigel. The trouble with cooking is that one hand is always in the way, so I dabbled with the 2 camera angle thingy.
      Have a great weekend buddy

    Do they need to be kept in a fridge

      No, there is no need to keep it in the fridge. However, once opened you may want to just so it lasts a bit longer. Mine gets used up quickly LOL

    oh gosh, I can just imagine how much pain your mom must have been in. Silly question, what is Marrow, is it what we call zucchini? that jam looks delish, will have to make some, well that is when you tell me what marrow is, lol

    • @DigwellGreenfingers
      @DigwellGreenfingers  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, a marrow is a very overgrown zucchini and vice versa but with modern breeding zucchinis are grown to be small and marrows to be big. I think that sums it up.
      You can see the marrows here at about 5:30 : th-cam.com/video/PUGsm-C_n9k/w-d-xo.html

    That’s a good easy recipe Steve, I didn’t grow any marrows this season, we don’t seem to use them, but I might sneak one in next year, and say I thought it was a courgette 🤔😁, thanks for sharing, kind regards

      I guess a 13kg marrow is just a courgette that forgot to stop growing LOL

    I never quite understood what a Marrow is. Is it something in between a pumpkin and a squash?
    Anyway …. thanks for another great cooking video.
    All the very best.

    Good looking jam Steve. I made courgette and ginger jam two years ago and that was delicious, no one would try it because they were put off by the courgette but it just absorbed all the sweet ginger taste and was gorgeous, it didn't set very well so I used it mainly in porridge and yoghurt for breakfast. Your poor mum with her fused finger, did it unfuse? Bless her, that must have been awful 😞

    • @DigwellGreenfingers
      @DigwellGreenfingers  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      No, she had a crooked finger all her life (I can only imagine the pain - makes me cringe 😢)
      Best way is to label the jar as something else like "Pineapple Jam" LOL. I've had to reheat a few jams in the past, even though they pass the setting test they are still a bit too loose for me.
      Have a great week Bethan
