Can you make rhubarb jelly from frozen rhubarb? Does anyone have any recipes.
I have an abundance of frozen rhubarb from last year & need to use it up. |

I've never made just straight rhubarb jelly before but I have cooked it with apples and made apple/rhubarb sauce that turned out pretty good. I also made rhubarb/strawberry preserves and I got that recipe out of a blue ball canning book.

I have never made rhubarb jelly if it were previously frozen. I do know that rhubarb loses it's crunchy texture when it defrosts. I don't think that the rhubarb can withstand the heat of the boil.

Sheila, Any chance you could give us all your rhubarb jam recipe? I have some rhubarb in the fridge and I can't make up my mind on what to make. If I have everything in stock, I think I'd like to make jam.
Thank you! |

I made rhubarb marmalade last year from frozen rhubarb, it turned out great.

Here's the rhubarb jam recipe :)
2 1/2 lbs rhubarb, sliced thinly or chopped. Mix with 1 cup water in saucepan and bring to boil, simmer for about a minute until soft, and then measure out 4 1/2 cups of this prepared rhubarb and return to saucepan. Stir in 6 1/2 c sugar and bring to hard boil. Boil hard for 1 minute, add 1 pouch of liquid Certo, return to boil and boil hard for 1 minute. Remove from heat and place into warm clean jars; process in boiling water bath for 10 min.
Yummmmmm!!
