There's several preserve recipes in this month's Tesco magazine ... Spicy Tomato & Celery Relish, Beetroot, Orange & Chilli Chutney, Caramelised Onion Chutney, Apple, Pear & Plum jam and Piccalilli. If anyone would like them, let me know & I'll scan them at the weekend & post them here or email them xxx

Missed this mag - I've only posted here once or twice, but would love the recipes, please! Will PM my email address if you're willing to pass them on - thanks in advance!


Horrifically behind with ALL Christmas/winter prep, but only working a couple of hours tomorrow, so hopefully can crack on this weekend - loads of smashing ideas on here.

Jars are on special offer in Asda at the moment, my friend got 3 medium ones to put sweets in. £1 each or 3 for £2 she said. I assume small ones for jam will be even cheaper but I won't be in there for a few days to check xx

Oooo, if anyone finds these can they say more about the offer? I'd be interested, but it's a bit of a drive to ASDA so only worth it if the offer is good. Ta!

Melvis, thank you so much for the 3 recipes. They look scrummy and would be great with a ploughman's lunch. :beer:
