Nope, but my wife made spruce jelly for Christmas get togethers. And I used it making beer until I rescued some pilsner style hops escaped from some long gone Eastern European coal miner ;-D

“every tried pine cone jam?”
Had no idea it was a real thing…. I had assumed it was more like the pine cone “elixir” I’ve gotten in Bulgaria (more like a very thick syrup).
There’s a chain of Ukrainian food markets now in Poland (called Ukrainoczka)… maybe they’ll have it?

You must have bought this at Global. My God that place will sell anything, like bull pizzle. Maybe you should try the balut, no just kidding don’t. I try to avoid that store as I prefer the company of white people ; )

OK, eew to the balut but that place is sacred to me bull pizzle notwithstanding. And yes, that’s where the jam comes from. I was trying to honor my husband’s culture with it, which started a long discussion about how he’s European and the jam is Asian and what’s located beyond the Urals and so on.
