Move Over Blackcurrants, There's a New Berry on the Block



With its quirky name, bright ruby red appearance and scrumptiously tart taste, the Chuckleberry is fast becoming the 'berry of the moment.' Speciality food company Cottage Delight, which has been making traditional preserves in Staffordshire for over 40 years, has recognised the delicious potential of this berry with the creation of Chuckleberry Jam, the latest addition to the company's best-selling range of award-winning jams, marmalades, curds and honeys.

Chuckleberry Jam is an exciting preserve that packs a delicious fruity punch. With a definably tarter flavour than the more commonly known blackcurrant, this dark and juicy berry is a delicious blend of the redcurrant, gooseberry and jostaberry* and creates a stunning topping for cheesecakes and a scrumptious filling for crumbles.

That's not to say that this tasty preserve should only be saved just for baking – it's also delicious enjoyed with vanilla ice cream or Greek yoghurt for a simple dessert, or spread on hot crumpets and fresh bread for an indulgent snack.

Lovingly made in small batches using traditional open copper pan methods, Cottage Delight's expert jam makers, who between them have over 103 years' jam making experience, use the freshest berries picked at their juiciest in Mid-July to retain the tart flavours of this unique berry.

Chuckleberry Jam boasts a high fruit content to create a truly scrumptious preserve without any artificial ingredients. Suitable for vegetarians and gluten-free, Chuckleberry Jam is available from independent retailers across the UK from the end of July and priced £3.30 RRP.

A recipe for perfect Yorkshire pudding

Image
A lot is spoken about Yorkshire pudding but is in not such a very difficult thing to do. All it is, is a batter mix that is put in a mould with some oil so that it soufflés up as it bakes. As long as you follow a few simple rules then you should have a perfect pudding every time. To make the batter you will need. 125g/8oz plain flour 300ml/¾ pint milk 2 eggs Pinch of salt Some vegetable oil. Now a lot of propel say that you need a strong bread flour to make a god batter for Yorkshire puddings but I have found that over time it does not really matter. But if you are going to use a strong flour let it rest for a little longer to allow the glutens to start working and get soaked up in the liquid . Take you flour and sift it in to a bowel to make sure that you do not get any lumps. Then make a well in the middle and crack your eggs in to that. Now taking a whisk start to work the eggs in to the flour. It will start to from a thick paste. If you think that it is getting to hard to work then
