Mould on Jam
Dear Aunt Daisy, I made quite a large quantity of apricot jam this season, and now find it has all got moul@ on top of it. This is the first time such a thing has ever happened with my jam. Could you advise what I can do to prevent it all becom-
ing spoilt?

I expect the wet summer may have had something to do with this, as you have never had it happen before, and probably are storing your jam in the same cupboard as usual. However, the dayer of mould which has formed on top of the jam will not have spoiled it. Just scrape it carefully off, and then brush over the top with vinegar-or lay rounds of white paper dipped in vinegar, over the jam. Acid prevents the formation of mould.
