Red currant jelly

Yesterday my mother gave me a bunch of berries and vegetables from her own garden. I'm desperate to recycle. The first sample from the land series is red currant jelly. By the way, I fell in love with this drink, like almost all other gastronomic pleasures, as an adult and realized how much I had lost when I gave up the jelly made by my grandmother and mother.

Ingredients :

Base

Making recipe:

We wipe the berries and squeeze out their juice.

Pour the squeezes into 1.7 liters of water, bring to a boil, and leave for 10 minutes.

Strain, add sugar, pour in lemon juice, bring to a boil and cook until the sugar dissolves.

We dilute starch in cool currant juice.

Pour the juice and starch into the bubbling syrup and, stirring, bring to a boil again. Turn off the heat, cool the jelly, pour into glasses and serve.

Have a nice one. Mmm. In general, more pleasure from the jelly for you!
