Time 40m

Yield 5 half pints

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup dried lavender flowers
1 lemon, juice of (approximately 1/4 cup)
1 (1 1/2 ounce) box powdered pectin 4 cups sugar

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan over high heat bring water just to a boil. Remove from heat, stir in dried lavender flowers, and let steep for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, strain mixture into a deep kettle or pot, discarding the lavender flowers. Stir in lemon juice and pectin; continue stirring until the pectin is dissolved.
  • Over high heat, bring the mixture to a boil then add sugar. When the jelly solution returns to a hard rolling boil, let it boil for 2 to 4 minutes (see below), stirring occasionally.
  • Boil Times:.
  • 2 minutes - soft gel.
  • 4 minutes - medium gel.
  • Testing for "jell" (thickness - I keep a metal tablespoon sitting in a glass of ice water, then take a half spoonful of the mix and let it cool to room temperature on the spoon.
  • If it thickens up to the consistency I like, then I know the jelly is ready. If not, I mix in a little more pectin (about 1 teaspoon to 1/2 of another package) and bring it to a boil again for 1 minute
  • After boiling, transfer the jelly into hot sterilized jars. Fill them to within 1/4 inch of the top. Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes. Adjust time according to your altitude.

I'm allergic to lavender, but I can still enjoy this jelly because the lavender flavor is very mild.

I'm not a big fan of jelly, but this one is really good! It's not too sweet and the lavender flavor is very subtle.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my jelly didn't set properly. It's still delicious, but it's more like a syrup than a jelly.

This jelly is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I love the simplicity of this recipe. It only requires a few ingredients and is very easy to make. I also appreciate that it uses fresh lavender, which gives it a much more vibrant flavor than dried lavender.
