Oh jam it! Presenting our delicately sweet and tenderly lush pink jam made from the Queen of Fruits the luscious Lychee 荔枝!
That's right my friends it's time to run to your nearest Chinese market and stock up on these seasonal beauties while they last. We love lychees way too much in this house and always end up indulging a bit too much on them. But heck why not they only come around once a year! This year though we got a gift of a whole box full of lychees, a whole boxful! What to do with a whole boxful of lychee?
After eating as much as we could I decided to turn some of it into a batch of our Luscious Lychee Ice Cream (our most favorite homemade fruit ice cream!) and the rest I decided to try to make a Lychee fruit jam, which I have never attempted before.
After a nervous planning and setting out, gosh darn it, the results are totally worth the effort, our homemade Lychee Jam came out tinted a gorgeous rosy pink and tasted ever so intensely of sweet, fresh lychee flavor with a delicate fragrance of summer florals! Absolutely yummillicious!
