Micro-Jamming

What to do with one lonely gooseberry bush?

Gooseberry bush


Harvest its berries, and make a jar of jam!

Gooseberries


Freshly picked berries

After being tidied up: 110 grams of gooseberries

Simmering with a splash of lemon juice and water
After some time, the berries break down and turn to mush

Measure an equal weight of sugar...
...and add to the berries
 
Keep cooking until the bubbles start looking sugary


Pour into a jar for safekeeping

Eat on toast!
