Grape Jelly

I was remembering making jam and jelly over a campfire out in the woods in Newark Valley from wild berries and green apples when I was 15 or so... so when I found these wild Concord grapes growing out front of MKS with a wild apple tree nearby I decided to make some grape jelly in the same fashion.



Green apples of course contain pectin. Fancy folks make the pectin separately, but it does work to just throw the green apples right in the pot, quartered.

Added some crab apples for the heck of it. sugar. covered with water, simmer for an hour, strain, reduce. Ended up with about 6 oz. of good jelly.
