I love proper homemade jams, not just for complimenting breads but great to add to porridge or on top of rice crackers. However have you ever checked the back of a jam jar? Yep, sugar is top of the ingredients list along with suspicious gelling agents and weird preserving additives! So I took it upon myself to make the alternative jam, I used honey as a sweetener, and with the fruit itself giving such a sweet taste i only had to use a little. I turned to the japanese gelling agent agar flakes as my setting ingredient, its plant based and easy to work with. It is available in health food stores, The jar lasts in the fridge for 3 weeks, its the only downside to not having all those preserving extras!
* great with peanut butter
