Directions: |
Directions:Put ingredients in big pot. Bring to a full rolling boil and stir until the liquid clabbers off a spoon. Clabbering is when you kind of let the mixture fall off the long edge of a tablespoon. It should sheet off in waves instead of just dripping- that's clabbering. If you can't tell if its clabbering, don't worry. Just boil it till you can't stir the boil away. It will be done. Skim off any foam from the pot. If you leave the foam in there its going to look nasty. So don't skimp on the skimming. Pour into 12 half pint jars. Immediately screw on lids and place on counter [or process in a water bath]. Leave the jelly there at least overnight. It may take this jelly a few days to actually firmly set up. Wearing a pair of rubber gloves will help you get the lids on the jars while they are still very, very hot.
You can tell if you get the correct seal when you examine the jars after several days. The flat lid should be concave & make a very nice pop sound if you're there when they start sealing. If the lid's not concave when you check on them, either process the suspect jar in a boiling water bath, put it in the frig and use up quickly, or just throw it away. |
