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 not a big fan of lavender, but I was pleasantly surprised by this jelly. It's not too floral and the sweetness is just right.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it could be improved with a few tweaks. For example, I would add a bit more lemon zest and lavender flowers.

I followed the recipe but my jelly didn't set properly. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

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.
