mullethunter Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I've picked a decent amount of Bilberries this week - a bit of an annual tradition for me - I've used some today and put the rest in the freezer, but does anyone know how to bottle them in syrup?

BlueSilver Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 It's pretty much like making ham only you don't boil as long nor add pectin; just long enough to break down the juice, then strain into sterilised bottles. I do the sirip sweet to taste for bilberry, rosehip or elderberry, with a squeeze of lemon. So if you can find a rosehip sirip recipe I suspect that will do.

mullethunter Posted July 12, 2014 Author Share Posted July 12, 2014 I'm hoping you mean jam! Thanks BlueSilver, I'll look for a rosehip recipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
