Directions: |
Directions:Mix rhubarb, sugar, and salt. Let set on the counter for a few hours until it gets saucy. If for some reason it doesn't get saucy, just sprinkle a little water on it. Put mixture in a kettle and simmer on low for 15 minutes. Stir so it doesn't burn. Add 1 small package of strawberry or raspberry jello to the hot mixture. Stir slowly as it dissolves but rhubarb pieces should stay together. Pour into clean jars. It is ready to eat when cold. Store in fridge or freezer. Makes about 6 pints. |

Notes: Contributed by Lowell "Buster" Martinson. Joyce trained me to make this jelly. I always have jars of it and cranberry relish in the door of my freezer. All of my grandkids love it and ask to take it home when they visit. I use the small stemmed, red rhubarb that is usually cut up in 5 cup bags and frozen in the freezer, ready to make jelly as needed. I save small jars and wash them to store the jelly.
