Word of the day – Splodge

Splodge [splɒdʒ], noun – a large irregular spot or blot; verb – to mark (something) with such a blot or blots [source]

I’m making some apple and raspberry jam at the moment using a recipe that calls for a ‘lemon juice splodge’. It just specify how much lemon juice there is in a splodge, so I guessed it was a bit more than a splash or a splat.

I’m looking for ways to use the glut of apples from my apple tree at the moment and have made various types of jam, jelly, cakes and puddings with them so far. If you have any good recipes for apple jam, jelly, ice cream, sorbet or others that use plenty of apples, please let me know.
