- Hope you enjoy this video following a super easy recipe for Nasturtium Jelly! Nasturtiums are such a wonderful plant - the leaves, flowers and seed pods are all edible, but the flowers are by far my favourite to experiment with.

Hey there!
Welcome to my channel, The Nature Patch where I like to share all things gardening, cooking and environmental science in my Australian bushland backyard.
My name is Robyn, an environmental scientist working towards completing a PhD in understanding how people's wellbeing and their connection to nature is impacted by land use change. I've always loved gardening and nature and lately have been interested in growing my own organic food!
On this channel you'll find videos relating to garden tours, 'how to' videos, composting, soil health, ecosystem services, and seed saving.
I try to upload twice a week and I hope you enjoy!!

![4 Flowers That REPEL INSECT PESTS I'm Planting NOW [And 1 To Avoid]](/img/n.gif)
❤️❤️❤️ much ❤️ from Ireland, chewing at least 3 leaves a day will clear a chesty cough. Flowers I love on my tuna salad 🥰
Makes a strong Antibiotic tincture, dry for tea, i add to everything or make a huge side salad dish with olive oil salt n pepper. Our leaves are big like my hand so want to use as wraps.
I am trying this recipe now! I just want to add in for whoever is trying this that you should pay attention to what kind of pectin you use (powder vs liquid, as you add the powdered pectin to the mixture BEFORE boiling, but with liquid pectin you add at the very end)! my flowers are steeping now. can’t wait to see how it turns out!
what a wonderful syrup. Never thought of making a sweet treat with nasturtiums.
It’s delicious! I was surprised when I came across the recipe but so glad it worked out ☺️
I have been using nasturtiums in many different ways but making jelly never came to mind. Thanks for sharing this idea with us.
Was it successful? Can you describe the taste and the sweetness level?
hello! I am about to try this as the nasturtiums are taking over the garden this year - there have been so much rain here in Quebec! May I suggest you use a white plate to show us the texture of the jelly - while your plate is gorgeous, it was difficult to see the jelly - dark on dark! thanks so much for this!
You could add ROSE liquid flavouring (come in small bottles bit like food colouring or vanilla essence and use the nasturtium jam/syrup as a sort of cheaper carrier for ROSE which i find is a lot more liked and versatile than nasturtiums.) Theres others like orange and peppermint etc which would be fun to try too.
The color looks gorgeous Robyn. Nothing better than cooking something from your own garden xx Cathi xx
Hi Cathi! The colour turned out wonderful ☺️ so fun making this. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing this recipe. I just planted my nasturtiums and am wanting to try this recipe.😊
Sounds like a super versatile flowers to have in the garden for sure! Will have to make sure we plant some at some stage!
They’re such great plants! I’ll always have a few planted and they self seed so easily ☺️
There's (at least) 2 varieties. I buy both lol but they mark the ones that are edible. Just read the package. For all I know they all are edible, but I go by that.
I love nasturtium too and am so grateful u did a jelly with them! 😃 thnk u for sharing this video!
This is so interesting. One of my favourite plants to grow in the cooler season where I live. Love the peppery flavour and the Vitamin C it provides. Keep on rocking the garden!
martysgarden Absolutely! It’s such a great plant - so many benefits! Thanks so much for watching ☺️
@@thenaturepatch your welcome
I have planted lots of different varieties this spring, so I will definitely try this recipe this year! Hello cats! I love nasturtium capers!
I'm going to really love this recipe! Our nasturtiums are growing better each year.
Yay! Let me know how it goes! I love it :D
G'day Robyn, very cool and really interesting. I've only ever had the flowers, leaves and seeds in a salad. I love the idea of the jelly on vanilla ice cream. Have a great week stay safe and God bless you guys. 🦘👍
Thanks Josh! Yep, it’s surely delicious! Have a great week ☺️
I like the flowers and leaves in sandwiches, like lettuce, as well as salads!
I have grown them around my garden in the USA for decades to draw aphids from the garden and repel some pests. I am thinking of trying to make capers with them but your jelly is intriguing. Not doing anything yet….they are just seedlings now.
They really attract the aphids! I hope the little girls stay on the nasturtiums, not the veggies!
I love these plants! Your jelly looks beautiful.
oh and I meant to tell you I make nasturtium flower vinegar regularly!
What a beautiful colour it came out!Good the nasturtiums grew back so fast.Take care God bless Robyn!
Thank you! Absolutely, the colour turned out great :)
Thanks for sharing. Will try it
Yay! I love your videos! I’ve never grown them!
Happy Farms aww thanks Dani! They’re such great little plants! I haven’t been watching much YT videos lately and have a few of yours to catch up on! So sorry to see that you lost a dear friend 😔
The Nature Patch thank you for your kind words and also for your time watching my videos when you can. No worries ever! Hugs across the 🌍
we put in our salad
Will definitely try this one when mine get more flowers!
Yay!! Definitely would recommend. Let me know how is goes 😍
Beautiful jelly!! You didn't say how it tasted. Is it spicy? I think I will have to try it when we have enough flowers!
Thank you 😊
Thank you for this! I will definitely make. We are at the end of season now..I'll have to see if I have enough left. I plan to make this as a chia jelly..chip is the substitute for pectin. It's healthy too. Will see if it works for nasturtium too. I use it for fruit jellies alot, so do t know why it wouldn't work for this too :). Thanks again
Spicy and peppery jelly is hit and miss for me.
It sounds like it would be peppery but this jelly is super sweet and not spicy at all despite how the flowers taste raw. When heated in the tea it takes all that spice away 🥰
@@thenaturepatch That is good to know. You never know if you would like something until you try it.
Sty nw frnd 💐👌👍
My method would be to warm the sugar at the same time as the jars, add the pectin to the sugar, mix it in and then add to the jelly. Looks like a good and easy recipe. Thanks for sharing.
David Murray that’s a good idea! I’ll try that next time with the sugar, thank you ☺️
Theres usually ball brand pection jar at big w. Or better online in bulk you can usually find citric acid and pectin etc to replace lemon juice and fruit peel/core pectin.
Great video - have you ever tried making jelly using magnolia petals ?
I can imagine doing this with rose petals too, for that exotic Moroccan feel.
Ooooh that sounds wonderful!! 😍
I want to try making nasturtium capers
try making lemonades we also made bugambilia lemonade and jelly
I will try - my favorite jelly is beautyberry jelly stirred into plain yogurt then sprinkled with bran flakes over top. This looks like something that would be good that way, also. Is it more peppery like a mint jelly or sweet like a berry jelly? I wonder how the leaves would do or do you know?
mary w Oooh that sounds delicious! Definitely will try it with yoghurt. It’s definitely more sweet like a berry jelly ☺️ haven’t done too much with the leaves other than eat fresh in salads and as a base for mine quiches ☺️
Have you tried making a sugar free jam? Or like a sweetener free one. I love presercing stuff but i find i end up freezing 80 percent and drying the rest because bot only is it quicker but i dont have to add sugar and salt which defeats the purpose of saving fresh healthy organic food.
As much as id prefer to use kilner since they are suppose to be aussie owned and possibly made theyre more expensive than the US ones and often harder to find and have less options.
Always wanted to make this, just never had enough flowers to do so. However the link provided isn't working. Is there any way to repost the directions?
Cats playing at the end reminds me of tne two that live here
Haha I debated leaving that in (didn’t realise until editing). They love each other though 😂
@@thenaturepatch our two are just crazy, we have hardwood floors so you can hear them running around all the time
Has anyone tried making it shelf stable? Thinking I could just try water bathing it and see how it goes
Would using chopped apples work in pmace of pectin powder ?
Make nasturtium pesto.
Yum!
Could you please describe the flavor?
I have so many growing and some small Ball jam jars, do you think it would go with cheese?
It's definitely worth giving a go! I think it may be a little sweet for cheese. Although you could always play around with the recipe and add less sugar or combine other ingredients such as quince for a more 'savoury' flavour :)
😮That's a lot of sugar for that little bit of liquid !!
i don’t like nasturtium, i grew it last year loved the flowers but it tasted so funny to me :/ like peppery earthy soap
I've heard of dandelion jelly, not nasturtium
I clicked off because...how about a white or solid color plate!? Could barely see it!
Haha sorry about that Kim. Didn't have one around at the time of filming. Hope you enjoy the recipe :)
