Description
Sharp lemon, a little lavender, and a finish like a sherbet lemon.
The lavender in this marmalade is kept below 1%, so it sits behind the lemon rather than on top of it. Ouse Valley describe the flavour as reminiscent of a sherbet lemon: sweet, sour and faintly floral at the end.
It is made in small batches in Kent by The Wooden Spoon Preserving Company, who make the Ouse Valley range, with lemons making up a third of the recipe.
How to use it
On toast or crumpets. The obvious one, and the best place to start.
Over a sponge pudding. Warm it gently in a pan and pour it over while the sponge is still hot.
As a glaze. Brush it over a lemon drizzle cake, a fruit tart or shortbread biscuits once they come out of the oven.
