Gooseberry Extra Jam by Jam Packed Preserves 290g

Gooseberries come from the same family of plants as blackcurrants, redcurrants and raspberries, the Saxifrages. There are many different varieties of gooseberry and we use hand-picked locally sourced green gooseberries to make our jam. The fruit is available in June at the beginning of the summer season and this is normally the first preserve of the year that comes out of the kitchen. When cooked green gooseberries will produce a pink coloured preserve that darkens in the jar over time. Gooseberries produce a lovely sharp flavoured jam.

About the Producer
Jam Packed Preserves is a small family-run business specialising in luxury, British preserves to the highest standards, but believe these shouldn't cost the Earth. Here at Jam Packed Preserves we don't like food waste. That's how we got started. We had a surplus of fruit from our allotment, and after getting the family recipe from Grandma, the first jar of raspberry jam was made. We source the best quality ingredients from British growers whenever possible. We don't just do this because we believe in supporting our communities, but it also reduces food miles, making it a much more sustainable choice.
