Although I almost never follow recipes, my cooking is successful, But my blackcurrant syrup that I did a few days ago did not turn out as I had imagined. I boiled it for a long time and misjudged how much impact the natural pectin is in the berries. It turned into blackcurrant jelly when it had cooled. However, I do not mind because it will be yummy with the meat dish that is in the oven that we will have tonight. 😊
