Hi everyone,
I've just joined the forum today and I am hoping there is someone out there who can help me. I've made my first attempt today at making banana jam and it all ended in tears. The bottom of my maslin pan was black, my kitchen stinks of burnt caramel. The recipe said to put the chopped bananas & lemon juice straight into a pan and bring to the boil then add the sugar. Once the suger went in it started to look like jam but I did notice that the bottom of the pan was going brown before the sugar went in. The jam ended up a lovely caramel colour but I'm not sure about the black bits! - can anybody tell me where I went wrong? Thank you
