In September I spent an afternoon walking around our local fields getting my self scratched to bit gathering rosehips the dog thought it was great though a whole afternoon chasing dandylion "fairies" (She's a lovely dog just missing a few connections between the ears) I spent the following day making 3 large (2lb storage) jars of rosehip jelly, tonight I had a bit of a sweet tooth and fancied some toast and jam, when I couldnt find it I asked where all the jam was only to be told that they had eaten it all, Thats endless thorns and scratches to make 6lb of jam the only taste I had was to check the sweetness when I was making it

Oh well, more for me!

We spent a day making Rowan jelly which ended up absolutely perfect apart from the bitter after-taste which stopped us eating it... Then we had a tree surgeon visit who told us that it wasn't a Rowan tree as the father-in-law had told us, and that we shouldn't eat the berries! I've forgotten what he said the tree was though...
If I ever make anything good enough to sell, I'll want to keep it!

Oh no, but at least they liked it - my DD would have turned her nose up too!"Human beings, who are almost remarkable in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so" - Douglas Adams

I've tried Rowan and it does have a slight aftertaste, not unpleasant but not to all tastes wither.Originally posted by RhinosoRoss View PostWe spent a day making Rowan jelly which ended up absolutely perfect apart from the bitter after-taste which stopped us eating it...
