  3. Rosehip jam is a tradition in Serbia. There are many comercial brands and they are just an imitation of the jam. The jam is so hard to make since the tree as I understand (never picked them myself) has lots of thorns. And cooking for hours and hours. Lots of effort goes into the jars! I have flashbacks of Split when I see your pictures, since the last time I saw it I was 11.

  6. Jelena, they are very thorny, i poked myself several times. My mother-in-law said it makes delicious tea and she showed me how to clean the rosehip and to put them in a room and dry them out so you can have rosehip tea all winter long. I don't know about making jam, although I would guess it's a long process like you said.

    I'm glad you enjoyed the photos and that they bring you happy memories.
