    Grapes contain so much sugar you may as well eat a chocolate bar as a healthy snack 😉
    More fiber in grapes than chocolate.. so regardless, there are some health advantages.

    @burgess8bs  We have adopted 6 chooks, destined for the abattoir.  They love Oh's grapes!  All gone now so I'm trying them on a banana.

    We love it. We’ve got several jars but I’m making sure there’ll be one left to have at Christmas with roast duck. 😋

    I made it last year @Dovefromabove but have never used it.  What else is it good with?  If we have duck it's usually the breast done with Hoisin and the usual Chinese trimmings or else roast pink and crispy with a red wine and juniper sauce so no need for grape jelly.   Very rarely see a whole duck here.

    Stir some into the gravy for a venison or other game pie. 

    Slather it over a slow roast shoulder of lamb for its last 5 mins in the oven. 

    Fabulous with toast and coarse country-style pork and liver pate. 

    Spread over toast before covering with cheese and grilling. 

    My son just loves it on toast and butter. 

    We’re going to have panfried duck breasts later this week and I’ll serve a dollop of jelly with them.
