Fredricksburg Texas has some of the best Texas wineries close by. While experimenting with a great port I found there, I came up with this beautiful, jeweled jelly. It's easy to make for a gift basket.

Time 4h30m

Yield 40

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups port wine
1 (2 ounce) package powdered fruit pectin
4 ½ cups white sugar
½ teaspoon butter
5 half pint canning jars with lids and rings

Steps:

  • Pour the port into a large saucepan, and sprinkle in the pectin. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring frequently. Once boiling, pour in the sugar, and stir until dissolved. Return the mixture to a boil, and stir in the butter until melted. Continue boiling for 1 minute, skimming and discarding any foam the forms on the surface.
  • Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pour the jelly into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/2 inch of the top. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

OLD FASHION BEET JELLY



Old Fashion Beet Jelly image

This is a recipe that my Great Aunt Augustine introduced me to over 25 years ago. When she first told me about, all I could think was "Beet Jelly? I don't think so!" It just sounded so strange! But we made a batch together and she then gave me a little on some bread to try. Again, "I don't think so" ran through my head but in our family we always try something before we decide whether or not we like it. I was pleasantly surprised and began making it for myself. I often make it in the fall during harvest time and reserve a few jars to give away as Christmas gifts. It is always well received, or at least it is after they have tried it! There are a couple of similar recipes on Food.com but their recipes are more water down and not as full flavoured as this one! Give it a try! You'll never look back!
