Beet Juice Jelly - Vintage Recipe Thursday - Recipe Round Up


Vintage Recipe Thursday is meant to preserve your own original vintage family recipes, or out-of-print, copyright-free recipes from old cookbooks, magazines, newspapers or postcards.

You're invited! Get the details by clicking to the Vintage Recipe Thursday Homepage.
 


This recipe came from my grandmother's good friend and neighbor, Phyllis. She, like my grandmother, seemed to be constantly cooking, baking or preserving something.


Beet Juice Jelly

6 cups beet juice
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 (1 3/4 ounce) boxes Sure-jell pectin
8 cups sugar
1 small package Jello (strawberry, raspberry or cherry)

In large heavy pot, combine juices and pectin. Bring to a full rolling
boil and boil 1 minute. Add the sugar and Jello, bring back to full
rolling boil and boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and pour into hot
sterilized jars and seal. Process pints for 10 minutes in a boiling water
bath.
