2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons finely grated peeled fresh ginger
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin

Pass through a sieve into a medium bowl, pressing on solids with a wooden spoon to extract as much liquid as possible; discard solids.

Categories     side-dish

Time 3h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds Granny Smith apples, quartered
4 cups cranberry juice
One 8-inch piece fresh ginger, sliced
1 cinnamon stick
3/4 cup sugar
Two 1-ounce packages unflavored gelatin
Nonstick cooking spray, for the party cups

Steps:

  • Add the apples (seeds and all), cranberry juice, ginger and cinnamon stick to a large pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and steep on medium until the apples are mushy, about 25 minutes. Strain the contents of the pot using a fine-mesh sieve and a moist paper towel or cheesecloth. Do not press anything through the sieve. Allow to drip to about 2 cups of liquid. Discard the solids.
  • Wipe the pot clean or rinse with water. Pour all but 1/4 cup of the liquid back into the pot and add the sugar. Cook on medium high until the sugar dissolves.
  • Add the gelatin to the reserved 1/4 cup liquid and stir. Stir this into the pot and remove from the heat. Let cool until just warm.
  • Coat the inside of four 8-ounce ridged party cups (or several shot glass-size party cups) with cooking spray (you may want to double the cups so you don't warp them). Once the liquid has cooled a bit, divide among the cups. Place on a tray and refrigerate until firm, about 3 hours.
  • To unmold, dunk the sides of the cups in warm water and wiggle out the jelly.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Yield Makes about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 1/2 cups (24 ounces) fresh cranberries
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons finely grated, peeled fresh ginger
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin, plus more for pan and bowl

Steps:

  • Put cranberries, sugar, ginger, and 2 cups water into a medium saucepan. Cover, and bring to a simmer; cook, stirring occasionally, until berries are soft, about 10 minutes. Pour through a sieve into a medium bowl; discard solids.
  • Meanwhile, put 1/2 cup cold water into a bowl; sprinkle with gelatin. Let soften 5 minutes. Add cranberry mixture; stir until gelatin has dissolved. Refrigerate, covered, at least 4 hours (up to 1 week).

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. Frozen cranberries can also be used, but they may not be as tart.
  • Make sure the cranberries are thoroughly rinsed before using them.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the jelly by dropping a small amount onto a cold plate. If the jelly wrinkles when you push it with your finger, it is ready.
  • Store the jelly in a cool, dark place for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Cranberry ginger jelly is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed on toast, crackers, or scones. It can also be used as a glaze for ham or chicken. With its tart and tangy flavor, cranberry ginger jelly is a great way to add a little something extra to your next meal.
