Corn Cob Jelly

Cover 12 ears of cobbed corn in large pot, just to cover the corn. Boil 10 minutes. Use 3 cups of the liquid and strain through a cheesecloth into a smaller pot. Add 3 Tbsp. lemon juice and boil again. Measure 4 cups sugar and pour in all at once. Boil again. Add 1 box Surejell liquid pectin while stirring. Remove and add yellow food coloring to make a butter cup color. Skim off any foam as needed. Pour into warm, sterilized jars, removing any last foam. Water bath for 5 minutes.

RE: Corn Cob Jelly

It's great on bisquits and cornbread. I thought it was one of those old southern recipes that someone in my family cooked up (pardon the pun). But, I googled it once, and it's an old Native American recipe and has been around for about as long as corn!

Wow. Does this bring back memories. My mother used to make this when I was a child.
