This appeals to me...I've certainly not heard of a jam with vanilla inside, and that certainly makes it interesting. Unfortunately I can't try it due to the lack of availability of some key ingredients!

I feel a tad redundant saying that this is a gorgeous jam - but what more can be said? The colour reminds me of stained glass or amber, with the slices of fruit suspended in the translucent jelly. The inclusion of the vanilla interests me, not only for its striking visual, but also in regards to flavour. The background warmth of the vanilla seems an interesting pairing with the astringency of citrus, reminicent of Creamsicle ice cream bars (vanilla ice cream paired with an orange sorbet).

Hi Nicky! I posted about my "jam experience" already :-) Phew, not bad for the first time, was actually quite pleased (I made jam!)...any tips are welcome!

When I started reading your entry, I immediately wanted to comment that I, too, have trouble with shopping lists especially when I pass by an assortment of truly tempting food products. Then, I saw the photo effect that you did and I wasn't sure whether to comment on that or the shopping list. That is awesome! :)

Guess I just commented on both. :)

Looks great. Reminds me of Algerian marmalades. We make with an array of citrus fruits, including blood oranges, tangerines and even lemons. Adjust sugar according to type of citrus fruit chosen.

You are indeed a very creative cook!
