This brought back memories of my mother making blackcurrant jam from the fruit bushes we had in our yard. I mostly remember strict orders NOT TO TASTE it because it was too hot, as well as a long story about the boiling point of sugar which my scientist mother surely delighted in teaching and which I promptly forgot!
