...Make jam tarts of course. Maybe you're not familiar with these much treasured British treats, but if you've ever wondered just what kind of tarts the Queen from Alice in Wonderland is named for, it may just be these. These really are a wonderful way to use up all the exotic and not so exotic jars that maybe were given as Christmas presents or bought through some culinary sense of adventure, only to sit forlornly at the back of the cupboard, never to see the light of day again. Be kind, set them free. Not only will you feel wonderful at putting them to good use, but you will be making some sweet, addictive little tarts with a chewy, caramelized pastry and tasty jam centres. Children love these, although possibly with much more sensible fillings, like strawberry and blackcurrant and not the strange flavours I had lurking about.
