Number Of Ingredients 5

2 c fresh violets
2 c boiling water
1 lemon (juice from) 4 tablespoons
1 pack powdered pectin
4 c sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Make an infusion with violets and water by placing your blossoms in a glass jar and covering them with boiling water. Put a lid on the jar, and set aside for 24 hours. The infusion will turn a murky bluish green. Strain and discard the violets. Add the lemon juice to the violet infusion, and it transforms to a clear lavender pink. Stir in powdered pectin, and bring to a boil. Add 4 cups sugar, bring to a boil again, and boil vigorously for one minute. Skim if necessary. Pour into sterile jars and seal. Makes approximately 2½ cups jelly.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my jelly didn't turn out as thick as I expected. It's still tasty, though.

This jelly is a bit more tart than I expected, but it's still very good. I like the way the tartness pairs with the sweetness of the fruit.
