We had guests for this dinner, and like a fool I tried something new. I can't now remember who it was, so apologies if it was you...
The pastry was fine, although I think I ran out before having excess to put a lattice over the top.
Now with the jam inside. I thought I'd followed the guidelines, but I don't think the jams were boiled hot enough to be able to set properly.
As a result, it looked basically fine, but cutting into it made the jam just leak everywhere rather than actually going with the portion. Tasted okay, if you could use a spoon...
Notes for next time
- Treat the jam like jam and use a jam thermometer to make sure it's cooked hot enough to set. I've no idea whether this will be sufficient, but it stands a better chance...
- Make sure the pastry has enough left over for the topping.
