In Doy’s garden

Log it in Doydum and a row of strawberries sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.

Strawberry jam is fruit cooked down with sugar until thick and glossy, spread on bread with butter or kaymak at breakfast. Many Turkish homes make their own reçel each summer from strawberries, sour cherries, figs and rose petals.

Reduced-sugar jams have noticeably different numbers, so check the jar if yours is one of them.
