jelly

Why does some jelly recipes say to be processed in a water bath canner and some don't, even for the same fruit?

And it actually gelled!!! I've never made homemade anything before so I am pretty excited. I got a score on frozen blackberries a few weeks ago (75 cents a bag - each bag has 4 cups of berries) and I bought a ton. I was wondering what to do with all those blackberries. Anyhow, I bought...

im so happy to get back to canning and dehydrating after a 2 week bout of the flue-not good when you are 62 but with all the good wishes i received from all the people fv helped-now i can get back to stockpiling again im starting to feel spry again i was so down with the flu that i didn't care...

I have a few large jars of grape jelly that have been rotated to the front of the pantry and expiring soon. I have made the grape jelly/chili sauces, used it in bbq sauces, melted it down for syrups... DD use to live off grape jelly, now she's anti-pbj because she has a friend fatally...

I really don't know but I think by feeling better all my great, new ideas are flowing out..lol One I wanted to share with you guys was this. I was in Walmart a while back and the kids asked me to buy them the Smuckers PBJ rounds in the freezer section. So I did. I was really kinda disappointed...

I used to make a lot of jam when the kids were growing up. I made a minimum of 60 jars annually, sometimes more. Favorites were strawberry, black raspberries, and long blacks. I also tried some different ones, like current. I did make some last year, and am going to make some this year. I...

We would like to make jam with our frozen blueberries. Has anyone done this? Also, our raspberries tend to ripen in drips and drabs. It would be easier to do this with them.

And I've already eaten 1/2 of a jar! It just seems to taste so much better than store bought! A friend gave me two 5gal buckets of sour plums last saturday. These plums don't get sweet, they always stay a little tart, even when fully ripe - & the jelly even has a little pucker to it! :) Anyway...

Since I apparently dodged a bullet with the cold weather, my optimism is running wild. We would like to make peach preserves this years. If canned, how long can we expect them to last. Normally, we do several years worth at a time. I made dinner with tomatoes that were five years old. That...

Since I didn't get any replies I will post this again. I really need your help with your comments when it come to use pectin. I am planning to buy all supplies tomorrow and hope to hear from you. I am planning to make a few jars of red pepper jelly to give away for Christmas. I found a few...

Peanut Butter Chips and Jelly Bars Recipe Descriptionkind of like little debbie's pbj cookies without the oats. You could grind some oats in the blender to make the same amount of flour, though, and it works out great and tastes exactly the same! Preparation Steps:1. Heat oven to...

So, anyway, here's a use for something you might normally throw out on the compost heap. I pretty much packed a pot full of the hulls, then covered them with water and boiled. The recipe I used called for 4 cups of the hull "tea," 5 cups of sugar, a box of Sure-Jell, and a couple tablespoons...

Kool Aid jelly? http://www.recipezaar.com/155733 I'll have lots of blackberry jam, apple jelly and apple butter canned but I thought about making grape and strawberry jelly using this recipe.

I want to make this for my son jelly.The problem is that I bought a box of "no sugar needed fruit pectin" and this recipe calls for 'pectin' probably the original kind where you need the sugar for thickening purposes.. The recipe calls for 4 cups of sugar. Do you think I could use 1/2C-1C? I...

Does anyone else seal their jelly jars this way? It's the way my mom taught me how to do it (and ONLY for jelly) and just wanted to know if anyone else does.

Does anyone have recipes which include jelly beans as an ingredient? I have 1/2 quart of these things, and rather than eat them mindlessly, I'd like to do something creative! Thanks for any advice!

I saved the peelings from the apples that I processed last month for pies and fruit leather, and now have another 24lbs of apples to take care of this week. My original intention was to make jelly, but I really have no use for apple jelly - I made jam earlier this year and we really don't use...
