Aubergine with Buttermilk Sauce from Plenty

Really delicious and easy to make. I don't know if the Greek yogurt we get is just that much thinner than European Greek yogurt, but my sauce was much thinner than the picture on the cover. And do... read more >

	Cardamom Plum Jam From: Canning for a New Generation: Bold, Fresh Flavors for the Modern Pantry (reviewed 6th January 2012) This is a really lovely jam - I really enjoy the touch of cardamom, but if you don't like it, don't make this recipe. It also took a while for this to set, and it's still a little on the loose side, but not so much to be unusable.
	Hot Chile Jelly From: Canning for a New Generation: Bold, Fresh Flavors for the Modern Pantry (reviewed 6th January 2012) This has been a really big hit with everyone that's tried it. It's not too hot, and the apple gives it a nice tang. I used cranberries for color, and it is a nice red.
	Pickled Beets From: Canning for a New Generation: Bold, Fresh Flavors for the Modern Pantry (reviewed 6th January 2012) I picked this pickled beet recipe because it was purposefully less sweet than regular recipes, but I actually find that I would like it to be a little sweeter. It's not bad, but not quite my cup of tea.
	Pickled Romano Beans with Indian Spices From: Canning for a New Generation: Bold, Fresh Flavors for the Modern Pantry (reviewed 6th January 2012) These beans have a nice, non-traditional pickle taste to them because of the Indian spices. My pickle-hating BF even liked them, and requested more. They're also very easy to make.
	Red Onion Marmalade From: Canning for a New Generation: Bold, Fresh Flavors for the Modern Pantry (reviewed 6th January 2012) I wasn't sure what to expect from this jam, but it turned out to have great flavor. It's very good in sandwiches (I've been using in all my grilled cheeses.)
	Simple Pickled Jalapeno Slices From: Canning for a New Generation: Bold, Fresh Flavors for the Modern Pantry (reviewed 4th March 2012) These were good - simple to make, and kept well. Once I fished out the garlic, made a good sub for the canned ones.
