Making apple jam

One of our groups is investigating the food people may have consumed 100 years ago.

They learned how to make jams and then used these jams on griddle cakes.

The recipe for apple jam is:

  • 3 apples
  • 2 cups white sugar
  1. peel the apples
  2. core the apples
  3. dice the apples into small pieces
  4. put into a pot and heat
  5. when bubbles appear add the sugar
  6. when more bubbles appear turn off the heat and leave for 5-10 until the apple turns gold in colour
  7. preserve in a jar



Wilfred Owen

We have been exploring the work of this WWI poet. Today's poem is titled "The Sentry".
