  There's something about homemade produce which always tastes so much better - especially if you follow Gloria Nicol's delicious recipes for preserves, chutneys, marmalades and more. The use of fresh, seasonal ingredients is the key to creating tasty condiments that are the added extra in life - the relish to the meal, the fruity kick to your morning toast, the squidgy filling in your cake and the sweet hit that makes afternoon tea such a treat. You only have to look on the shelves of the smartest delicatessens to see that making jams and jellies has never been so popular, with flavours and combinations that range from the traditional tried-and-tested recipes to the more adventurous and exotic.In times of abundance it makes perfect sense to squirrel away food for use in times less plentiful.

Jam-packed with lip-smacking recipes, including ways to pickle vegetables and dry fruit, the secrets to great flavours, simply made, are unlocked in this delightful book.
