List of Ingredients

3 1/2 pounds purple grapes
1/2 cup water
7 cups white sugar
1/2 (6 fluid ounce) container liquid pectin


Recipe

Prep Time: 30 Minutes
Cook Time: 30 Minutes
Ready in: 25 Hours
1. Sort and wash grapes, and remove stems. Place them into a large kettle and crush them. Add water, cover, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and extract juice. Allow the juice to stand in a cool place overnight to prevent the formation of crystals in the jelly.
2. Strain the juice through a double thickness of damp cheesecloth. Measure 4 quarts of the juice into a large pot. Stir in the sugar. Quickly bring to a full rolling boil, and allow to boil hard for 1 minutes. Remove from heat and skim off foam. Pour into hot sterile jars, and seal immediately.
