CORN COB JELLY
12 ears of corn cut off kernels (I froze them)
5 cups of water
1 box pectin
4 cups sugar
yellow food color (optional)
Boil cobs 10 minutes
remove and discard cobs/strain liquid through cheesecloth
Measure out and use 3 cups of the liquid
return to pot and add pectin
bring to full boil, add sugar and boil 1 full minute
remove from heat and skim foam off, add color if desired
pour into prepped jars, top and lid, turn upside down 5 minutes
turn over and listen for jars to pop.
Enjoy! It did not look like it would set, but it did just fine in a few hours.
*edited to add that the original recipes stated to use field corn, so that is also an option, I used sweet
