The season of giving

After not seeing friends and family for a while, it’s always nice to give them a homemade gift. If you’re stuck for ideas, Laurie suggests making gourmet jams and chutneys. ‘Add a unique flavour like chai, chamomile or blueberry to really make it your own.’ Stick them in a jar with a pretty label and you have an easy and delicious treat.
