↳ In-reply-to » Transformed four kilograms of blackberries into a bit over three kilograms of blackberry jelly. https://lyse.isobeef.org/brombeergelee-2024-08-19/ The leftover jelly did not fit in prepared canning jars, so I dumped it in a regular drinking glass (which was a mustard glass in its former life): Media The rest is cooling off on the bench outside.

@mckinley@twtxt.net Wow, I was not aware, that there are different kinds of blackberries. But of course there are. Everything has all sorts of different species, why would it be different with these tasty guys? :-)

I just read up on them and – surprise, surprise – it turns out, the Himalayans are not native to most of Europe either. Doh! It gets even more interesting, their origin is unclear. Maybe Armenia and the Caucasus region. Fascinating!
