When I saw that my dear Ena made jam, I had to ask her to share the recipe with you. I do not think there is anything better than a home-made fruit jam from fruit that you choose yourself and then you have a lovely sweet jam for the whole winter to go with pancakes. You can still find strawberries on the market, and raspberries are the stars in July. Certainly that you can make a jam from plums or even cherries that are in season in June. Preparation time: 60 minutes Ingredients: – 3 kg of strawberries or raspberries...

Do you also enjoy going to the market these days as there are so many colors. I simply come back home barely carrying all the fresh fruits and vegetables I buy. I have to tell you that in the last few weeks I traveled a lot. Among other things, one of the trips is the YTILI experience, which I believe will make Chakula advance even more and I am extremely happy about this. As for the season, in June we enjoy especially in: peaches, cherries, new potatoes and eggplant. Peaches originate from China, and you can easily grow them...
