Thank goodness for the internet!

Hi. I have just registered and am new to this kind of activity! Seem to have got myself bulldozed into writing SOMETHING here, - but I haven't really had a look around yet. I am possibly the world's worst cook - but folk around me seem to think that because I am ancient (70-ish - going 17) I MUST be competent, and keep giving me fruit and veg to make into things.

I absolutely need to find out how to make my jam set, so here I am! Maybe I should just call it "Yummy Runny Rhubarb and Ginger Jam" and be done. Or just eat it myself! It TASTES ... y u m m y....and I have never been a fan of rhubarb!

NOW I will look around for suggestions - and welcome any replies, helpful or not.
Cheers.

Welcome to DC (and the internet!)

We have a good preserves section, although, I prefer a soft set jam myself, so I'm always trying to catch mine just before it sets!

Hello - and thanks for the welcome. I'll have to sign out now - builders ripping out the roof of our dining room to put skylights in! Yee hah!
Busy in London tomorrow Thursday, all day. Back on Friday - and keen to get browsing in this -to me - complicated but interesting place!
Looking forward to Friday.
