INSTRUCTIONS
In a 2 to 2.5 quart pan, combine garlic or shallots and vinegar.
Simmer gently, uncovered, over medium heat for 15 minutes. Remove from
heat and pour into a 1 qt. glass jar; cover and let stand at room
temperature for 24 to 36 hours. Pour flavored vinegar through a wire
strainer into a bowl pressing garlic or shallots with the back of a
spoon to squeeze out as much liquid as possible; discard residue.
Measure liquid & add vinegar if needed to make 2 cups. To use liquid
pectin: In a 5 to 6 qt. kettle, combine flavored vinegar, water and
sugar. Bring to a full rolling boil over medium high heat. Stir in
pectin and bring to a boil that cannot be stirred down. Boil, stirring
constantly, for 1 minute. To use dry pectin: In a 5 to 6 qt. kettle,
combine flavored vinegar and pectin. Bring to a full rolling boil
over medium high heat, then stir in the sugar. Stirring constantly,
bring to a boil that cannot be stirred down, and boil for 2 minutes.
If desired, stir in 2 drops red, yellow or orange food coloring. Skim
off and discard foam, then spoon hot jelly into hot sterilized 1/2
canning jars to within 1/4 inch of rim. Wipe rims clean with a damp
cloth; top with scalded lids and bands. Place jars on a rack in a
canning kettle and cover with boiling water. Bring to simmering and
simmer for 10 minutes. Lift jars from canner and set on folded towels
to cool. FROM: ANDREA BOTTINI (GTDD49B) From Gemini's MASSIVE
