Home Made Jam, Bread & Butter

Why buy when you can make better for less at home in your own kitchen?

We make our own jams, preserves etc for a fraction of the cost the shops would charge for similar quality.

Baking our own bread saves money and when we can get a bargain offer on cream we make our own butter as well.

On our sister site, Frugal Cooking, we're building a selection of recipes aimed at making the most from the least. You can find details of these on this site under Frugal Cooking Recipes.

There's no need to even buy food in the summer when you can combine a family day out with a foraging trip! Check out Free Wild Food for some ideas and tips.
