Yummmmmmm grape jelly. . .We have been blessed with friends who grow grapes and allow us to pick some of them! Grape jelly is so easy to make -- have you ever tried it? It's so easy, using either liquid pectin or powdered pectin, you just make the juice (we heat the grapes in a little water until they pop a little, then use a food mill to strain the juice and a teeny bit of pulp out from the skins and seeds) and then mix the pectin and sugar in, then can it. Here's a great recipe from Kraft for using Sure Jell (the powder) -- I seem to get a firmer result using the powder than the liquid pectin. Delicious, easy, and a gorgeous color! Great to feed the family and to use for gifts!
