Does anyone have a Muscadine Jelly recipe (easy please)?
Muscadine Jelly Makes 8 – 10 pints 4 quarts ripe Muscadine grapes 2 2/3 cups sugar 2 pkg. of pectin Take off the stems and wash Muscadines in a large pot. Rinse several times. Then mash the Muscadines and fill pot with water just about 2 inches covering over them. Simmer for 25 minutes. Pour the juice into another pot through a colander to catch the seeds and skins. Strain through cheesecloth back into the original pot. Heat to boiling. Boil juice for 5 minutes and then add the sugar. Turn down heat to a simmer and cook until it reaches 220 degrees on a candy thermometer. This took me around 30 minutes. The directions on the pectin will tell you how to test it by letting the juice sheet from a cold spoon. I was not sure what this looked like so I put mine in a spoon in the fridge to cool.

You should sterilize jelly conta
