Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds Grapes Any variety
  • 1/4 cup Lemon Juice
  • 1 3/4 ounces Powdered Pectin
  • 6 cups Granulated Sugar

Instructions
 

  • Run the grapes through a food mill to quickly separate the grapes from their skins and seeds.
  • Pour the milled grapes and lemon juice into a large sauce pan. Bring to a boil and then let simmer, stirring frequently.
  • Prepare your canning supplies. Bring the temperature of the glass jars up by processing them in hot water for several minutes, and heat a few cups of water in a small saucepan for the lids.
  • Stir in the pectin until dissolved. Bring back to a boil, and then add in the sugar all at once. Boil hard for a minute longer.
  • Skim off any foam and ladle the hot jam into the hot jars, leaving 1/4″ headspace.
  • Place the lids and bands on top, screwing on the bands just until fingertip-tight. Place the full jars back into the boiling water and process 10 minutes.
  • Remove from the water and place the jars on a towel. Let the jars cool. The seals should suck down (you'll hear a popping noise as they do). Makes 5-6 eight-ounce jars.
