Chia strawberry Jam

Hi everyone,

I hope youโ€™re all enjoying the sunny weather ๐ŸŒž

I have made some chia jam. An idea I stole from Jerry as Iโ€™m sure he gave me the idea last year.

I basically boiled some strawberries in a small amount of water for a few minutes and added a tablespoon of chia seeds nothing else.

Itโ€™s got a really fresh taste and Iโ€™m very pleased with it so will be trying this out on other fruits. I bought some vegan croissants from Waitrose today and I think this jam will go nicely with those tomorrow morning with a coffee in the garden. โ›ฑ ๐ŸŒž๐ŸŒฑ

(The sweet peas are from my garden and they are doing very well. I will have to get them to have a chat to the tomatoes!! ๐Ÿ˜‚).

Thank you Jerry! Iโ€™m looking forward to breakfast tomorrow and I think it will be delicious. I was going to buy Jam but then remembered you made a raspberry tart and put a strawberry and chia topping on I think it was and that gave me the idea. Itโ€™s amazing really as I canโ€™t remember what I did yesterday but I remembered that ๐Ÿ˜‚

Hi, it was nice but not as strawberryish as if youโ€™d bought the jam from a shop although it probably had more strawberries in it. Probably due to the lack of flavour enhancers and sugar. Iโ€™d make it again ๐Ÿ˜

Not what you're looking for?
