CHERRY JELLY

Sweet or sour cherries can be used. I used sour because that is what grows on our tree. Got this off the internet and altered it somewhat. No need to pit all those cherries. This one is easy! Time to make does not include time for water to boil in water bath canner.

4 1/2 cups sugar

Steps:

  • TO MAKE JUICE:

  • In large pot, crush cherries (I use a potato masher.).
  • Add 1 cup water to crushed cherries.
  • Bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Strain juice through a jelly bag or cheesecloth. (I use a fine mesh "sifter" lined with a coffee filter.).

  • TO MAKE JELLY:
  • Measure 3 1/2 cups juice into large pot.
  • Add pectin and stir.
  • Place on high heat and stir constantly.

Tips:

  • Use fresh or frozen cherries: Fresh cherries are best, but frozen cherries can also be used. If using frozen cherries, thaw them before using.
  • Pit the cherries: Use a cherry pitter to remove the pits from the cherries. This will make it easier to eat the jello.
  • Use a good quality cherry juice: The quality of the cherry juice will affect the flavor of the jello. Look for a cherry juice that is made from 100% cherries.
  • Dissolve the gelatin completely: Make sure the gelatin is completely dissolved before adding it to the cherry juice. This will prevent lumps from forming in the jello.
  • Chill the jello for at least 4 hours: The jello needs to be chilled for at least 4 hours before serving. This will give it time to set properly.

Conclusion:

Cherry jello is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make a perfect cherry jello that everyone will love.
