Scuppernong Jelly
Why I Love This Recipe
I was given some scuppernong grapes (popular and common in NC mainly) and didn't know what to do with 5 lbs of these!!! Well... the answer here is Jelly or Wine!!!
Ingredients You'll Need
5 lbs scuppernong grapes (squished seeds and all)
3 cups sugar
1 package (3 oz) Strawberry jello
Directions
Squeeze and break down grapes so the juice can escape during cooking.
Boil over medium heat until you get a lot of juice at the bottom of the pan. Takes about 15 minutes on med-low heat.
Remove from heat, let cool.
Strain the grapes to get all the juice back into the pan but no skins or seeds
Bring to a boil and then lower to med-low to simmer, add 3 cups of sugar.
Add pkg of jello.
Let this boil down until its thickened and is over 220 degrees.
Add to jars and seal.
