Red Wine Jelly Recipes

Steps:

• Combine wine, lemon juice, and pectin in a large saucepot.
• Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Add sugar, stirring until dissolved.
• Return to a rolling boil.
• Boil hard 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
• Skim foam off top, if necessary.
• Ladle hot jelly into hot, sterilized jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace.
• Tighten 2 piece lids.
• Process for 5 minutes in boiling water bath.

Steps:

• Put the red wine, sugar, star anise, clove, cinnamon stick, allspice, vanilla pod and seeds in a medium saucepan. Stir together, then heat gently to dissolve the sugar. Turn up the heat and boil for 20 mins until reduced and syrupy. Strain into a small, sterilised jam jar and leave to cool completely. Will keep in the fridge for up to 1 month.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine wine and sugar and simmer over medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes to cook off some of the alcohol.
• In a large mixing bowl combine gelatin with 3 tablespoons of water to bloom the gelatin. Let stand for 5 minutes and stir. Pour hot red wine mixture into the bowl to combine with gelatin and whisk. Add the chopped shallot, peppercorns, mint leaves, and lemon juice.
• Allow to steep for 15 to 20 minutes. Strain out solids and pour into an oiled mold. Allow to set up overnight in the refrigerator. To serve, unmold onto a plate and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil, salt and freshly ground black pepper. Garnish with some chopped fresh mint.

Steps:

• Stir the gelatin into 2 tablespoons of water, and set aside to soften. Put the sugar and wine in a saucepan, and heat to dissolve the sugar. Do not boil. Remove the wine from the heat and whisk in the gelatin until completely dissolved. Cool.
• Arrange the grapes in 6 ramekins or tea cups. Pour over the wine mixture. Cover, and chill several hours to set. To serve, run a knife around the edge of the molds and dip the bottoms into hot water for a few seconds, then invert onto serving plates.
• In a bowl, whip the heavy cream with the sugar and flavoring to serve alongside.

Steps:

• Combine wine, pomegranate juice, lemon juice, and pectin in a large pot. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Add sugar, stirring until dissolved. Return to a rolling boil. Boil hard 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim foam off top, if necessary.
• Ladle hot jelly into hot, sterilized jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Tighten 2 piece lids. Process for 5 minutes in boiling water bath.
• *Note--you can use any kind of wine you like. I like to use a pinot grigio--mostly because it is my favorite, but also because it makes a really pretty pink jelly.

Steps:

• Bring boiling-water canner, half-full with water, to simmer. Wash jars and screw bands in hot soapy water; rinse with warm water. Pour boiling water over flat lids in saucepan off the heat. Let stand in hot water until ready to use. Drain well before filling.
• Measure wine into 6- or 8-qt. saucepot. Stir in pectin. Add butter to reduce foaming. Bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly.
• Stir in sugar. Return to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 min., stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon.
• Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with two-piece lids. Screw bands tightly. Place jars on elevated rack in canner. Lower rack into canner. (Water must cover jars by 1 to 2 inches. Add boiling water, if necessary.) Cover; bring water to gentle boil. Process 5 min. Remove jars and place upright on towel to cool completely. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middles of lids with finger. (If lids spring back, lids are not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.)

Steps:

• Combine wine, lemon juice, and pectin in a large saucepot. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently. Add sugar, stirring until dissolved. Return to a rolling boil. Boil hard 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim foam off top, if necessary.
• Ladle hot jelly into hot, sterilized jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Tighten 2 piece lids. Process for 5 minutes in boiling water bath.

Steps:

• Stir wine and sugar together, set aside for 10 minutes.
• Stirring occasionally.
• Stir water and Certo together and then stir into wine mixture. Stir constantly for 3 minutes, then fill jelly jars to within 1/2" of tops.
• Wipe tops of jars and cover with lids.
• Let stand for 24 hours at room temperature, then freeze. Store in refrigerator after opening.
• Use any red, rose or white wine. Or use a cream sherry, white port or marsala.
• Sweet wines make a more flavorful jelly than dry wines do.
• Tip: I have found this works best if you heat the wine and sugar while stirring. I couldn't get the sugar to dissolve until I did. I also filled the jars with hot water while making the jelly so they were warm when I filled them. This seemed to help the lids seal better.

Steps:

• Combine sugar and wine in a large saucepan.
• Mix well.
• Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously, until sugar is dissolved.
• Remove from heat.
• Add liquid pectin and mix well.
• Skim off any foam and discard.
• Pour immediately into hot, sterilized jars and seal.
• Let cool.
