Want to get to grips with making marmalade, chutney, relishes and more but perhaps you need a hand in the kitchen, or a bit of confidence to get going?

Master preserver Rosie Jameson wants to 'preserve preserving' and pass her skills to as many people as possible, so has devised a series of online workshops around key festive condiments for the winter ahead. From her home in Rutland she'll teach viewers how to make the best preserves around. Perfect for winter gifting!

She is on a mission to teach people who have never preserved before how to reduce waste, recycle food and fill their store cupboard with the right ingredients to do so.

Rosie, who also runs a preserving supply shop Love Jars has had a bumper year and thinks that the panic buying in March and threat of Brexit, along with the nation discovering a love for growing their own throughout lockdown has inspired the next generation to learn new skills.

“If something good has come out of 2020, it’s a rise in people understanding how vulnerable we are if our supplies run out and having a new respect for a well-stocked pantry. I hope this new series of workshops will help them further.”
