So, my guilty secret - I don't find making fruit 'cheeses' easy - but I keep trying. In 2023 I finally made something I was pleased with which is Pear & Black Pepper Paste. It was from a recipe in a magazine and I felt with that title I wouldn't feel too bad if that is all I achieved - again. However, it did result in a delicious jelly that I did suceed in slicing, quite sticky but I guess it isn't supposed to be made to that level of 'jelly-baby' dryness as it would probably lose all of its character. So we are going to try together, in the spirit of adventure and if we end up with some dishes of very firm jam then we can still eat it. It all looks so perfect and easy to achieve in magazines! I will give guidance for some great flavour combos and then all you need is some delicious cheese to eat it with.

I've thoroughly enjoyed your workshops over the last year and have learnt so much about preserving - there's a whole world out there, not just jams! Your warm and friendly approach is greatly appreciated, and you answer all our questions with endless patience. Thanks for giving me the confidence to experiment - as you say, what could go wrong?!
