Tip of the Day: What to do with fruits that are too ripe?

If you have fruits that you feel are too ripe to eat, make jam or marmalade!! It's super easy.
Yesterday I had about 6 apricots that were much too ripe to eat.
In the evening I took out the seeds, put them in a small saucepan with a bit of sugar. You can put more or less sugar depending on what you want, the usual amount is as much grams of fruits as grams of sugar, but I put much less most of the time. You need to cook the fruits and the sugar (and lemon juice if you want to) very fast at first, and then much slower for a fair amount of time when the mixture start to stick to the pan. You then put the mixture in a jar when you think it is cooked enough for you. The then jar goes in the fridge.
AND this morning...(drum roll) I had jam ready for breakfast!!

 




You can then eat it with bread, or bread and butter. But you can of course eat it in many other ways, such as with a nice plain yogurt or cottage cheese.
