Name: Cactus Jelly
Ingredients: See below

Make careful choice of the books which you read: let the Holy Scriptures ever have the preeminence. Let Scripture be first and most in your hearts and hands and other books be used as subservient to it. While reading ask yourself: 1. Could I spend this time no better? 2. Are there better books that would edify me more? 3. Are the lovers of such a book as this the greatest lovers of the Book of God and of a holy life? 4. Does this book increase my love to the Word of God, kill my sin, and prepare me for the life to come?

INSTRUCTIONS

Do not double recipe. Gather about 1 qt. of fruit to make 2-1/2 C. of
juice. If most of the fruit is very ripe, try to include some under-ripe
ones to add pectin. Wash fruit and place in kettle with just enough water
to cover. Boil until quite tender and soft (extracts pectin and flavor).
Strain through two thicknesses of cheesecloth and set juice aside so
sediment will settle. For clear jelly, do not use sediment portion. For
each 2-1/2 C. juice, add one package of powdered pectin (more successful
than liquid). Bring to fast boil, stirring constantly. Add 3 T. lemon or
lime juice and 3-1/2 C. sugar. Bring to a hard boil (one you can't press
down with a spoon) and boil for three minutes. The timing is very important
to get a product that will jell. Remove from heat, skim and pour into
sterilized jelly glasses. Cover with a layer of melter paraffin. (I am
experimenting with a non-sugar version using apple, pear and white grape
juice concentrate but at present have it all in freezer waiting for some
time to try different quantities, etc.) By Barbara Barte, courtesy of Pima
