Jellies

All our jelly products need to be kept in a fridge after opening, and used up within three weeks; here are some suggestions to help you!

SERVING SUGGESTIONS

 

All can be used d with roasted or barbecue meats, just as you eat Mint Jelly with Lamb, so do try different combinations. They are all very versatile and can be used as an ingredient in sweet and savoury cookery.  

  • Towards the end of grilling chops, steaks or hamburgers, brush on a spoonfull and return to the grill to melt.
  • Add a dollop to any gravy or sauce mix..
  • If you are pan frying meat, at the end of cooking remove the meat, drain off the fat and stir in a little jelly and some boiling water.  Keep on the heat for a minute or two.
  • Melt a little jelly over new potatoes.
  • Spread a little on the bread before toasting cheese on toast or making toasted sandwiches.
  • The plain jellies without herbs do well on toast, or with scones or with cheese.
  • Some of our chefs use these jellies with creme brulee or other rich creamy deserts.

Kea Plum & Rosemary Jelly

TASTE OF THE WEST GOLD AWARD WINNER 2006.

BEST OF THE BEST PRESERVES, TASTE OF THE WEST 2006.

FINALIST: Waitrose Small Producer's Award 2007.

Kea (pronounced key) on the Fal Estuary near Truro is home to these small damson sized plums. Kea Plum and Rosemary Jelly is a Crellow created product. Rich deep plum colour, with shreds of home grown rosemary a robust, sharp and punchy, fairly acidic, flavour and firm texture. 

Serve with rich roasted meats such as pork, lamb, game and venison.

Stir a spoonful into casseroles

Seasonal and the crop is unreliable so in some years we have very little stock - buy while you can. 

Mint

With lamb, new potatoes, in sandwiches with cold meat, brushed onto grilling chops, stirred into pan juices to make gravy.

Rosemary or Sage

Almost interchangeable with mint, but also good on grilled goats cheese, a smidgen to salad dressings for rice, pasta or couscous salads, a tiny amount as a 'sauce' with crème brulee.

Quince Jelly, Crab Apple Jelly

These jellies are great with toast or a filling for a sponge cake but go equally well with grilled cheese or meat or stirred into hot porridge! Crab Apples are not grown commercially so we collect from local gardens and domestic orchards. Colours will vary depending on the variety of tree the apple came from, anything from bright orange to deep crimson. Some people say they can detect different flavours too.

Herb Garden Jelly

This jelly uses parsley and lemon balm in the mixture which give an unusual taste.  Melted with a little butter it is lovely as a glaze for carrots, or other root vegetables.
