Wild Grape Jelly

I'm posting this recipe to help myself and others avoid the frustration of searching through all my cookbooks and magazines every september! It's not a recipe you can find in the pectin inserts. Tried and true- another canadian living gem. Prep time includes overnight drip.

Steps

In large saucepan , crush grapes with potato masher.
Pour in water and bring to boil.
Reduce heat and simmer , covered , for 10 minutes or until fruit is very soft.
Transfer to jelly bag or colander lined with a double thickness of fine cheesecloth and let drip overnight.
Measure juice into a large heavy saucepan.
Stir in sugar.
Bring to boil over high heat , stirring constantly.
Stir in pectin.
Return to full boil and boil hard for one minute , stirring constantly.
Remove from heat and skim off foam with a metal spoon.
Pour into sterilized jars , leaving 1 / 8 inch headspace.

Ingredients

grapes, water, sugar, liquid pectin
