canning apple jelly ~ 2nd batch
10 apples went into the Breville this afternoon, juice was cooked with 5 cups of sugar and almost 2 boxes of pectin. My vote is that 5 cups of sugar has a better taste than the 7 I made earlier in the week, just like I thought ~ intuitive cooking! This was a really really good batch! I realized as I stood by the pot stirring that the pot had a familiar aroma and that it was essentially apple cider made into jelly. Yum, next on the agenda will be apple cider with mulling spices from Williams-Sonoma. Hopefully there will be a chill in the air again soon!
