Do you think I could dry them for sultanas? Or what else could I do, once we are tired of munching on them? What would YOU do? It's not urgent, as we've only just started picking them. Also, there are plenty of bunches, but the birds may be eyeing them, too. So I wouldn't be surprised, if the vine was suddenly totally empty one morning.

Picking grapes
We picked the first bunch of grapes last week. This is today's haul, two bunches. They are seedless sultanas. Juicy and sweet.

After I munched on some I would Make Grape Jelly or Jam that way you have the wonderful grapeyness all year.
ReplyDeleteHi, love your blog! Unfortunately we cant grow grapes up here in the tropical north, but when they are cheap and I buy a bunch I like to keep them in the freezer. Makes them last longer and munching frozen grapes is a real treat.
