Forever Nigella - Cranberry Jam

I found this Forever Nigella Challenge over at Maison Cupcake blog you can find all the details and rules (they are not restricting rules which is great because I struggle with some challenges) anyway I was a bit fed up becuase I had made Nigella's Easy Sticky Toffee Pudding from Nigella Bites for our Christmas Pudding, but hadn't taken any photographs and that would have been a perfect entry.

However, not to be beaten, I had flick through Feast and found chapter called 'If it's Christmas it must be Cranberries'.  I had a bag of fresh cranberries in the fridge and no immediate plans for them so I decided to make Cranberry Jam. One of the rules is that you can't reproduce any of Nigella's recipes verbatim, so as I didn't make 'two changes' to this recipe, you will need to buy the book if you want to find out how to make it!

I tested mine on a chilled saucer to check for set

Nigella suggests spreading this lovely, sweet and sharp, jam on croissants or you can use it in the cranberry Bakewell Tart which also features in Feast.

Title: NIGELLA LAWSON/Forever Summer/WHITE 1

NIGELLA LAWSON/Forever Summer/WHITE1
It's off to the seaside as Nigella Lawson cooks more recipes that keep the taste of summer as the weather turns to autumn.

On a visit to Whitsable with family and friends Nigella is prepared to leave the comforts of her own kitchen for a little, and while the recipes are simple to prepare, the flavours are complex and draw on influences from around the world.

First the children are roped in to help prepare Ricotta Hotcakes with strawberries and syrup for a lazy breakfast. Later in the day it's time for White Chocolate And Passionfruit Mousse and a White Lady, made with lemon juice, cointreau and gin. Finally there¹s Keralan Fish Curry, which draws on Southern Indian flavours for the perfect seaside supper.

Title: NIGELLA LAWSON/Forever Summer/RED 1

NIGELLA LAWSON/Forever Summer/RED
It may be getting cool outside, but the summer heat is still coming from the Nigella Lawson's kitchen. In this episode she looks at some ingredients that can keep the temperature high, whatever the weather.

Fiery red chillies are the essence of her Sticky Spare Ribs, Indonesian spiced chicken and the improbable, but delicious; Ice cream with a red-hot chili syrup.

As a journalist Nigella is naturally reticent to reveal her sources, but credit where credit is due and here she introduces some of the people and places she goes to, to swap ideas and recipes. One of her recent discoveries from an Australian friend is Slut Red Raspberries in Chardonnay: "Could any recipe live up to this name?". Another is a spin on an Italian classic; Crab Linguine with chili and watercress.
