Equipment

  • 1 Jar
  • 1 large pot

Ingredients

  • 2 Gallons whole, ripe Mayhaw berries
  • 1 Pkg Sure-gel 
  • 50g Sugar
  • 4-5 Prepared Pint jars with lids

Instructions

  • 2 gallons of mayhaw fruit should be added to a big pot along with just enough water to just cover the fruit by an inch. till soft, boil mayhaw. Strain off pulp and seeds in colander, catching the juice in another container. Once the juice is reasonably clear, pass it through a small mesh strainer. Some people add a few drops of red food coloring to make it seem prettier and give it a brighter color.
  • Stir 1 box/packet in a 5- to 7-quart pot. Add 4 cups of Mayhaw Juice, 1 teaspoon of Sure-Jell, and pectin to decrease foaming. On high heat, while stirring continuously, bring to a full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop boiling when stirred). 5 cups of sugar should be added, then the mixture should be boiled for exactly one minute while stirring. Get rid of the heat. Remove any foam by spoon-skimming.
  • Ladle the mixture into the prepared jars as soon as possible, filling them to 1/8" below the lids. Clean the threads and jar rims. Cover with the flat top and band-shaped 2 piece lids and firmly screw them on. Put the jars in the stockpot or canner. Make careful to cover the tops of the jars with water by at least 1-2 inches (add boiling water if necessary). Put a lid on it and gently boil. Take five minutes.
