PEACHES
Extract from my book reminiscing my childhood visits to the Royal Sydney Agricultural Show …
“I still have vivid memories of of the fruit and vegetable pavilion where the exhibitors created intricate pictures of landscapes with their produce. Celery became hedgerows, apples graded into colours became pastures and oranges made vivid sunsets. Carefully placed cherries became apples on trees and walnuts in rows made perfect garden paths. Each ‘artwork’ was edged with jar upon jar of preserved fruit, in beautiful mosaics of pretty patterns”
My love of preserving stems strongly from this memory.
