Rhubarb Jelly Recipes

Steps:

• Grind the rhubarb in a food processor or grinder. Line a strainer with 4 layers of cheesecloth and place over a bowl. Place rhubarb in strainer; cover with edges of cheesecloth. Let stand for 30 minutes or until liquid measures 3-1/2 cups. Pour juice into a Dutch oven; add sugar and, if desired, food coloring. , Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Add pectin; bring to a full rolling boil. Boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat; let stand a few minutes. Skim off foam. Carefully ladle hot mixture into hot half-pint jars, leaving 1/4-in. headspace. Remove air bubbles; wipe rims. Center lids on jars; screw on bands until fingertip tight. Place jars into canner with hot water, ensuring that they are completely covered with water. Bring to a boil; process for 10 minutes. Remove jars and cool.

Steps:

• prepare juice by placing rhubarb and water in a large stainless steel saucepan on high heat.
• bring to a boil then simmer for 5 minutes, then remove from heat.
• pour through a strainer lined with cheesecloth, then tie up the rhubarb pulp into a "bag" and hang to drip overnight.
• clean jars, lids and rings in hot, soapy water. put jars in cannng kettle and bring to a boil. put lids and rings in a bowl of very hot water.
• measure juice. you should have 850 mL, if not add water to reach desired amount.
• combine juice and sugar in a large stainless steel saucepan, mixing well.
• add butter, to reduce foaming.
• bring juice and sugar to a full rolling boil over high heat.
• add liquid pectin, squeezing pouches until totally empty.
• continue to boil for 1 full minute, then remove from heat.
• skim foam from jelly.
• pour into 250 mL jars to 1 cm from rim, wipe tops if necessary.
• seal with lid, tighten ring fingertip tight.
• bring canning kettle back to a boil, process for 10 minutes.
• remove from water and place on a towel to stand for 24 hours. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Put the rhubarb into a large ovenproof dish. I find a rectangular size measuring 12 by 8 by 2 inches perfect for the job. Sprinkle over the sugar, add the orange juice and zest, and 2 cups of water, and cover, either with lid or with foil. Bake for 1 hour. Take out of oven, remove lid, and let cool.
• Strain carefully into a large measuring cup. I find this gives about 3 cups. Put the pulp aside (you can freeze it for use in the custard or trifle). If using granulated gelatin, soften it in 1/4 cup of the Muscat, about 5 minutes. Heat the mixture in the top of a double boiler over simmering water until the gelatin has dissolved, about 1 minute, and add to the rhubarb juice. Pour the remaining Muscat into the juice to bring it up to 3 3/4 cups; if not using granulated gelatin, add the Muscat as is to the juice to the required measurement. Taste; you may want some more sugar or a squeeze more orange or, indeed, more Muscat.
• Lightly oil a 4-cup jelly mold by dabbing a paper towel in some suitably flavorless oil and then rubbing it over the interior of the mold. Soak gelatin leaves in a dish of cold water until softened. Put 2 ladles of rhubarb and Muscat syrup in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Squeeze out the gelatin leaves and whisk into the syrup. When they've dissolved, pour the contents of the pan back into the measuring cup. If you want to make sure everything's well enough blended, you can pour from the cup to the pan and back into the cup again. Pour into the jelly mold and place in the refrigerator to chill and set, about 6 hours or overnight.

Steps:

• Toss the rhubarb, strawberries, sugar, lemon zest and juice and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a large saucepan to combine, then mash slightly to release some of the berry juice. Set aside for 10 minutes to allow the mixture to macerate and the sugar to dissolve. Meanwhile, place a small plate in the freezer to chill; this will be used to test the doneness of the jam.
• Place the saucepan over medium-high heat. (See Cook's Note for flavor additions.) Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to medium low, stirring frequently. Continue to cook until the jam becomes thick and syrupy, about 1 1/2 hours. To test doneness, place a small amount of the jam onto the chilled plate and freeze for 2 minutes. Drag your finger or spoon through the jam. If the jam holds its shape and thickness, remove from the heat. If it's runny, continue to cook and test again in 5-minute increments. Once the jam has reached the right consistency, transfer to jars and cool completely before storing, covered tightly. Jam will keep in the refrigerator for up to 6 months.

Steps:

• Set out your canning tools, boil the jars and warm up the lids.
• Set aside and get ready for the hectic dance that is jellymaking.
• Dice rhubarb.
• Place in large saucepan with 2 cups water.
• Bring to boil and simmer until rhubarb has disintegrated.
• Pour into jelly bag and let drip.
• Squeezing the bag is okay here since rhubarb juice is not crystal clear anyway.
• Squeezing will not make it cloudy as with other jellies.
• Measure EXACTLY 3 cups juice into 8 quart canning kettle.
• If necessary, add ½ cup water to make 3 cups of juice.
• Stir in vinegar, rosemary, pectin and butter or margarine.
• Bring to a full rolling boil while stirring constantly.
• Stir in sugar all at once.
• Bring to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Remove from heat.
• Skim off foam, trying not to skim out too much of the chopped rosemary.
• Place 1 spear of rosemary in jar, ladle in jelly mixture to within 1/8 inch of the top.
• Wipe jar and threads, cover with lid and set on rack to cool.
• Repeat until all jars are done.
• Process in boiling water bath for 5 minutes, set on rack to cool and wait to hear the lids plink.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, add the rhubarb, sugar, and water; bring to a boil. Cook for ten minutes.
• Add the package of jello and boil for one more minute.
• Remove from heat and let cool. Store in the refridgerator in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Very lightly grease a 1-litre jelly mould with oil, then make the rhubarb layer. Put the rhubarb and caster sugar in a pan with 250ml water, cover with a lid and simmer for 5-8 mins until the rhubarb is really soft, then remove from the heat. Put the gelatine in a small bowl of very cold water to soften.
• Line a large sieve with muslin or a J-cloth, place over a bowl and pour in the rhubarb liquid, then leave to drip through. Once all the liquid has dripped through, return the juice to the pan over a low heat. If your rhubarb juice isn't very pink, you can add a drop of food colouring. Once soft, remove the gelatine from the water and squeeze out any excess, then add to the warm rhubarb juice, stirring until the gelatine dissolves. Pour half the rhubarb liquid into your jelly mould and put in the fridge to set for 3 hrs. Leave the remaining rhubarb juice at room temperature.
• Meanwhile, make the custard layer. Put the milk, cream, and vanilla pod and seeds in a pan, heat gently until just simmering, then remove from the heat. Soak the gelatine in a bowl of very cold water. In a large bowl, whisk the sugar, egg yolks and custard powder until smooth and pale. Pour over the warmed milk, whisking to combine. Pour the hot mixture into the pan and heat gently until thickened slightly, then remove from the heat. Remove the gelatine leaves from the water, squeeze out any excess liquid, add to the custard and stir well. Leave to cool.
• Once the first layer of jelly has set, pour over half the cooled custard layer. Chill for a further 3 hrs.
• Repeat the process with the remaining jelly, making sure each layer is well set before you add the next. If the jelly starts to set at room temperature, you can reheat it very gently on the hob - just make sure it doesn't boil, as this will stop the gelatine from setting. Once the jelly has had its total setting time, ease the edges away with your fingers, then turn out onto a plate (you may have to give a little jiggle to dislodge the jelly) and serve.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the rhubarb, sugar, orange zest, orange juice and water. Bring to a boil, then cook over medium-low heat for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until thick. It will thicken more as it cools.
• Ladle into hot sterile jars, and seal with lids and rings. Store opened jars in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• I juiced the rhubarb using a Back to Basics steamer/juicer, which really simplified things, but if you don't own one simply grind the rhubarb in a food processor or grinder. Strain through a jelly bag, reserving 10.5 cups of juice.
• In a very large pot or dutch oven, add sugar and food coloring and bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
• Add pectin and return to a full rolling boil. Boil 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Allow to sit a few minutes and skim off foam.
• Pour hot into hot, sterilized jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Adjust caps. Process for 10 minutes in a boiling water bath.
• FOR SYRUP: To use up any remaining juice, add 1 cup of sugar to every 1/2 cup of juice. Boil until sugar is dissolved. Can be preserved in jars as the jelly or put straight into the refridgerator.

Steps:

• Cover and cook rhubarb in water over low heat until tender (about 15 minutes).
• Cut candy orange slices (gumdrop type) into rhubarb.
• add lemon and cook slowly--stirring frequently--till thick.
• Pour into jelly jars.
• Grated lemon peel can also be used to enhance flavor.

Steps:

• Wash the rhubarb under cold running water and slice into 2cm pieces. Tip into a large ceramic or plastic bowl and add the jam sugar, lemon zest and juice, and chopped stem ginger. Finely grate the peeled ginger directly over the rhubarb.
• Stir the mixture thoroughly, cover loosely with cling film and leave to one side for about 2 hrs to allow the sugar to dissolve into the rhubarb juices. You may need to stir the mixture occasionally to encourage this process along.
• Pop a few saucers in the freezer. Scoop the fruit and all the sugary juices into a preserving pan and set over a medium heat. Stir until the sugar has completely dissolved, and bring to the boil. Continue to cook at a fairly swift pace until the rhubarb is really tender and the conserve has reached setting point - this should take about 10-15 mins.
• To test for a set, drop ½ tsp of the jam onto a cold saucer, leave it for 30 secs, then gently push it with the tip of your finger. If the jam wrinkles the setting point has been reached. If not, continue to cook for a further couple of minutes and test again.
• Remove the pan from the heat and leave to one side for 2-3 mins before pouring into sterilised jars. Seal immediately and label with the date once completely cold.

Steps:

• Cut rhubarb into 3 cm chunks
• Put rhubarb, sugar, and vanilla pods into a frying at low heat. When sugar dissolves, add lemon juice and put at higher heat for about 10 min.

Steps:

• Place rhubarb, strawberries, lemon juice, fruit pectin, and butter into a large kettle over medium heat. (Butter is optional but helps keep jam from getting too foamy). Stir the fruit mixture to help the juice start to form, and add sugar, about 1 cup at a time, stirring constantly until sugar is dissolved and the juice is starting to simmer. Turn up heat to medium-high, bring the mixture to a full rolling boil, and cook and stir for 1 minute. Skim off any foam that forms.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. With a jelly funnel and a soup ladle, pack the jam into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 5 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. To help the jam set, don't move or touch the jars until cooled. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine the rhubarb, 2 cups sugar, cinnamon, allspice and cloves. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cook, uncovered, over medium heat until thickened, stirring occasionally. Cool completely., Line a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan with waxed paper. Grease the paper; set aside. In a large bowl, beat eggs for 3 minutes. Gradually add remaining sugar; beat for 2 minutes or until mixture becomes thick and lemon-colored. Stir in extract. Combine dry ingredients; fold into egg mixture. Spread batter evenly in prepared pan. , Bake at 375° for 15-17 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched. Cool for 5 minutes. Invert onto a kitchen towel dusted with confectioners' sugar. Gently peel off waxed paper. Roll up cake in the towel jelly-roll style, starting with a short side. Cool completely on a wire rack., Unroll cake; spread filling evenly over cake to within 1/2 in. of edges. Roll up again. Place seam side down on a serving platter. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving. ,

Steps:

• Put a small plate in the freezer. Put the rhubarb into a preserving pan or your largest saucepan with the sugar and halved vanilla pods. Heat gently, stirring, until all the sugar has dissolved, then squeeze in the lemon juice and increase the heat.
• Boil for about 10 mins, skimming off the scum as you go (the fruit should be soft). Test for setting point by spooning a little onto your chilled plate. After 1-2 mins, push your finger through the jam - if the surface wrinkles it is ready, if not, keep cooking for 2-min intervals, testing in between. (Or if you have a sugar thermometer it should reach 105C)
• Once the jam is ready, let it cool for about 15 mins before ladling into warm sterilised jars and sealing. Will keep for 6 months in a cool, dark place.

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.
• Trim rhubarb; cut into 1-inch pieces. (Do not peel.) Put through food chopper, using finest blade. Or grind, in batches, in food processor or electric blender. Place three layers of damp cheesecloth or a jelly bag in large bowl. Pour prepared fruit into cheesecloth. Tie cheesecloth closed; hang and let drip into bowl until dripping stops. Press gently. Measure exactly 3-1/2 cups juice into a 6- or 8-qt. saucepot.
