Jelly. Blackberry.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Prepare jelly glasses by placing them on a folded wet towel.

  2. Fill the glasses with jelly, placing a spoon in each glass if desired.

  3. Use fruit that is not overripe for better quality jelly.

  4. To prevent mold, cover the surface of the jelly with ¼ inch of fine sugar.

  5. To test if the jelly is done, dip some into a cold saucer and place it on ice.

  6. If it hardens at the edges without spreading, it is done.

  7. Alternatively, dip a spoonful into a glass of ice-cold water; if it drops to the bottom without mixing, it is done.
