Are we jamming?

That was a lovely way to mark the end of the summer :) you were missed han.

Picked raspberries, apples, strawberries, sweetcorn and squash. Think eme got plums, and someone got cauli and spinach :)
 
Just googled it, so can't take the credit for actually knowing:

Store your corn in cool temperatures, usually around 38 degrees F, the cooler the better. If you wait too long to store your corn, you risk changing the flavor and reducing quality, as sugars begin to convert to starch almost right away in the kernels. You can cool your corn by resting it in crushed ice or placing in a container with ice water. After cooling, place your corn in plastic bags with a few small holes punched in them, and then in the refrigerator for storage. Depending on the variety, it is best to eat your corn within a few days after harvest.
 
Cheers :o

I'll bung them in the fridge and use them in the next couple of days :)

One photo (few more to come):

I've got 3 jars of raspberry and I'm about to embark on making strawberry. Thanks folks of the 'stealth' craft club for warm hospitality, cool foodiness and shoes :)
 
ooh just tried some raspberry jam as a sort of "amuse bouche" before my roasted squash and stuffed mushrooms and it is LUSH! Gaijinboy says it's the best raspberry jam he's ever had (but then he says that about every foody thing I bring back from craft club)! :D

I had some for my brekkie this morning and it was fucking aces :cool::D
 
Hehe, I'm such a squirrel: I should just eat the stuff and enjoy it while it's there rather than try and hang on to it for a rainy day. :D Tomorrow I'm going to have some jam, too! And my cauliflower curry. Nom.

Thanks all for a lovely day. Look forward to many more craft clubs this year. :)
