Ingredients:
- 4 cups sour cherries, pitted and chopped
- 1 cup elderflower cordial
- 3 cups granulated sugar
- 1 packet 1
- 75 oz fruit pectin
- 1/2 cup water
Instructions:
The elderflower cordial and the sour cherries should be combined in a large saucepan
Over medium heat, bring the mixture to a boil
Then, lower the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes
Mix the fruit pectin and 1/2 cup water in a different bowl until the pectin dissolves
Stir thoroughly after adding the dissolved pectin mixture to the simmering cherries
Add the granulated sugar gradually, stirring constantly to ensure the sugar dissolves completely
Simmer the mixture for a further 10 to 15 minutes, or until the desired jelly consistency is achieved
During cooking, skim off any foam that appears on the surface
After turning off the heat, remove the saucepan and give it some time to cool
Leave a 1/4-inch headspace at the top of the sterilized jars when you pour the hot jelly into them
To guarantee correct sealing, cover the jars with lids and process them in a water bath for ten minutes
The jars should be left to cool at room temperature
Verify the seals, and store any jars that aren't sealed in the fridge
Put the jars in a dark, cool place after labeling and dating them
Savor the homemade elderflower jelly with sour cherries!
