Cheers Trish"
Wow ...
Coincidentally, I have just been having a chat with some friends about making jam and one, Ingrid, said that her Dad puts a whole lot of marbles in the pot (like 20 or so) when he makes jam to stop it sticking on the bottom!! Then Ingrid went on to say that she had also tried forks!! Yes folks you read correctly ... forks!! Any one else heard of marbles or forks??? Ingrid was a bit worried as she had less marbles than she started with in a recent batch of mulberry jam ;-)

My wonderful mother in law says that once you burn a pan it will always catch and secondly always use a heavy based pan for jams etc. I havent heard about marbles etc except when boiling milk, Marg had a ceramic flat disc for the milk pan.. Trish.S.
