we have an amish community by me and they have dandalion jelly for sale and I buy it all the time. It is my favorite jelly!!! It is really good, you will like it!!!
I think I will try to make the jelly this week end I am sure my husband will think I am crazy. When I was a teenager my friend's father told us how to make dandelion wine,talk about being sick. Of course we were sneaking and drunk to much at one time. The jelly is more my style now.
Loved reading about the dandelion jelly and salads. Heather, would you please post the sprout salad recipe? My husband uses fertilizer with weed killer so i don't think i will be trying the jelly this year, i will have to pick them the next year before he puts that stuff down.
I tried using the Chillover for the first time with the Izzy brand drinks- so good- it's in MJF cookbook. It was so refreshing on a hot day, like having a cold grapefruit without all the hassel!
My mother-in-law brought me a recipe she found for rhubarb freezer jam using blueberry pie filling and jello. I wonder if the Chillover would work just the same??
Question- I am thinking of trying a freezer jam, i usually do regular jam/jelly with a water bath. What kind of containers can i use for freezer jam when i am trying to rid my kitchen of plastic containers? Can i freeze in mason jars? and would it require water bath first to seal the jar?
