My FIL is very happy to see me snoop around and take photos, also very proud to tell me how he made them. Basically they go Carrefour and there is a section where boxes of over ripe fruits can be bought for 2 euros, they will buy those very ripe soft apricots and also pineapples. He said must use copper pot and spoon.
The copper pot is very big! Initially I thought it was a vintage baby bath ( with the French one never knows...) . Copper will not cause the fruits to stick to the pot . Put in all the fruits, add sugar and stir them over very very very small fire for over 9 hours! I see them do it on Saturday, they will just let the pot there and on and off stir it. I was reluctant to try as I am not a jam kind of person but honestly.. very very delicious!
