This is great, I haven’t tried forced rhubarb before but will try find in the shops before the season goes. I thought Riverford would have it so have been looking but can’t seem to find. Quick question for the jams, do I just have to flip and leave in a regular mason jar? Do I have to do a water bath or any extra preserving step or will it be okay just like that if I let it sit 24 hours?
Hi Katie, the only issue with the larger headspace is that the jar might not seal. After 24 hours (upright! the flip is just for 1-2 minutes), check the seal. If it's sealed, great! You can put it in the cupboard. If not, pop it in the fridge where it should last at least 3 months if not longer.
