Summer means it’s berry season. Especially if you live in an urban setting, when you get the chance to go to a farm and pick fresh berries, you might go a little crazy.
Now you need to use up all those berries. You don’t want all that time you spent berry picking to go to waste right.
One thing I have become passionate about is practicing Zero Waste Cooking and Procedures in my kitchen. There is way too much waste in the world, leading to toxins and other bad things in our environment.
Whenever I come home with a large batch of anything now, I make sure to immediately prep some for further use by making some preservation recipes like jam, pickles, ice cream or if nothing else, I freeze some to be decided later how I will utilize it.
Would you like to practice more Zero Waste in your kitchen, not only contributing to a cleaner environment for the next generation, but also saving you some money in the process?

This is a healthy jam recipe using only honey and no processed sugars. Even the honey quantity can be adjusted per your own preference.
If you do not have mango juice, it can be substituted with any juice like lemon juice, apple juice or orange juice.
I know you just can’t wait to try it. You can also use a little to garnish pancakes or waffles. It’s delicious with them!
It’s great for breakfast on a piece of toast and also goes great with Parsi Chapat.
