Sweet Violet Jam
Violets are beautiful flowers that carry a touch of nostalgia. If you want to spoil your mom or granny, this would be a wonderful way to do so.
One thing though, 250g of violets is a lot - this is not only a wonderful gift, it is a labour of love!
250 g violet flowers. Pick all of the green bits off. Leaving them in will change the colour
600 ml boiling water
750 g sugar
½ cup lemon juice
Boil the water, add the sugar and stir until it has dissolved. Add lemon juice and simmer until thickened.
Remove from the heat and stir in the flower petals.
Pour into small sterilised jars. Seal and label.
