The tree at the front door (planted by us and Jase) has grown very well. The first harvest last year was about a cup and this year we got 2.7kg. Six jars of bright delicious crab apple jelly.
Then there was sorting and taking off their stalks and wee leafy bottoms.
Mish boiled the fruit and we set them up for an overnight drip through muslin. In the morning we had a neat package and a bowl of glistening red liquid.
Fruit into the compost and liquid into a pot with sugar and crab apple jelly is ready for scoffing.
