Finished batch of hawthorn berry ketchup! The berries are called haws, so really this is haw ketchup ๐Ÿคญ

Recipe and method ๐Ÿงต

After picking out all the leaves (very hard to pick berries without getting the whole sprig) I washed them in cold water and weighed them. We had 300g of berries. Boiled them in apple cider vinegar and simmered them for an hour, topping up with vinegar when it dried out.

An unimpressive picture of the very unlikely spot where I forage for wild blackberries. This is next to the undergrowth where I park my bike at the garden, it probably only gets 1 hour of late afternoon sun, and I'm sure is overlooked by others. But look closely - see all of the missing berries? I've eaten them over the past week, and wow, are they delicious. #foraging #foragedfoods #foragingdelights #blackberries

Just a few days left on wild black raspberries around these parts! Spend the morning gathering what I could find. Not bad! ๐Ÿ’œ
