Steps:
- Heat honey and water to boiling, stirring constantly. Add liquid Fruit pectin and bring back to boil. Allow to cool in jelly jars.
Tips:
- Use ripe fruit for the best flavor and texture. Overripe fruit can be used, but it may need to be cooked for a shorter amount of time to prevent it from becoming too soft.
- If you are using frozen fruit, thaw it completely before using. This will help the jelly to set properly.
- Do not overcook the jelly. Overcooked jelly will be tough and chewy. The jelly is done when it reaches a temperature of 220 degrees Fahrenheit (105 degrees Celsius) or when it sheets off the spoon.
- Allow the jelly to cool completely before storing it. This will help the jelly to set properly and prevent it from spoiling.
- Store the jelly in a cool, dark place. Jelly can be stored for up to 1 year in a sealed jar.
Conclusion:
Making jelly is a great way to preserve fruit and enjoy it all year long. With a little practice, you can make delicious jelly that your family and friends will love. So next time you have a bounty of fruit, don't let it go to waste. Make jelly instead!
