Chef Sandra’s Apple–Lavender Jelly
Subtle and aromatic, this jelly combines gently cooked apples with a light touch of lavender for a flavour that is soft, floral, and beautifully balanced. Prepared at home in small batches, it reflects a European tradition of using herbs sparingly, allowing the fruit to remain at the centre while adding a refined aromatic note.
Clear and smooth in texture, it’s lovely on fresh bread, brioche, or croissants, and pairs exceptionally well with cheese, especially soft or fresh varieties. It also adds an elegant twist to desserts or afternoon tea. Delicate, calming, and thoughtfully crafted, this jelly is understated sophistication in a jar.
