Just planted a Ribes nigrum 'Ben Nevis' at the fork in my garden path! Excited for future blackcurrants right in the heart of the garden. The path is still a work in progress, but this spot felt perfect for a fruiting shrub. Can’t wait to see it grow!

Drinking Thai Lanna from Every Tribe Coffee.
Absolutely delicious!!!
The Sensations are described as: Dark Chocolate and Black Currant, and they are absolutely true.
Highly recommended.

Enjoying while I watch episode 2 of Zero Day, starring Robert De Niro, and eating Mexican Rice with Corn, added Red Pepper Flakes, and cut up Little Smokies.

Also tried some blackcurrants with lunch (leftover smoked lamb and garden salad with avo). Tasted so good, especially with the meat. #food #fruit #blackcurrant #meat

First time i spotted some fresh black currants at a fruit and veg shop. So decided to try some. A few mixed in with some berries on my granola were lovely. The tartness added a wonderful depth of flavour. A few definitely go a long way though. May try some in some salad later, to go with leftover ham or lamb. #food #fruit #blackcurrant

Fresh blackcurrants, including some stems and leaves, in an opened plastic punnet. A few fruits are red and/or wrinkly but most are plump and deep red to black.

Hopefully the beginning of a nice #homebrewing #adventure. #homemade #mead #fermentation #video. #melomel from summer #blackcurrant #berries grown in my own #garden in #finland.

The finished product. I miscalculated a bit so there’s also one random container with some jam in it which was not properly sanitized so that’s going to immediate consumption. The rest should be ok so they should store at least a year or so, although one was a bit too full and spilt over when I closed the cap so that might also go to immediate consumption as there is a risk of mold etc.

But overall as an experiment this was a fun one. Next time I’ll probably try with redcurrants or gooseberries if there’s a good harvest.

#Blackcurrant #Jam #Cooking #DIY

Five glass jars filled with dark liquid (hot, still runny blackcurrant jam), placed on a floral-patterned tablecloth.

There it is. Raw blackcurrant jam. Looks a bit soupy for now.

I also threw in five (yes, just five) blueberries just so I can say it’s a five blueberry blackcurrant jam.

Close-up of blackcurrants cooking in a pot, creating a thick, berry mixture with a dark red and purple color. A black utensil is partially visible on the right side.

Alas, a full bucket was not meant to be. Half a bucket only, but that’s more than enough for making some black currant jam!

#BlackCurrant #Berries #Foraging

Blackcurrants are ripe. Harvest time!

Note: it’s not my bush, but the owner doesn’t feel like picking them and gave me permission to pick “as much as you feel like picking” so I’m aiming for a full bucket.

A bucket half filled with black currants.

Quick visit to the #allotment and #shed this evening.

Pulled out a large sapling / small tree that had cunningly disguised itself as a blackcurrant bush. Trimmed the real #blackcurrant bushes and the #blackberry thug. Pulled out #horsetail and #bindweed

#painted some #arrow shafts a fetching fluorescent orange with Goblin Snot paint (best brand name ever). They will need another coat or two. The two or three coats of varnish on top of that to get them nice and smooth. Tried out my new helical #fletching jig on a broken arrow shaft. That went well too. Well, until I noticed I put the feather on backwards.

Schwarze Johannisbeere =カシス=黒すぐり=black currant …
要するにRibes nigrum(学名)、が色付き始めた🤩

庭の果実の中で多分一等好き。
