Directions
Lavender Jelly With Chamomile, What a beautiful gift! Having trouble sleeping give this a try Add to a cup of tea, glass of ice tea, lemonade, sauces, salad dressing, glaze a chicken or salmon, top a fruit tart, or spread on a scone for a delicate sweet flavor Sweeten a vodka martini with a touch of this and garnish with fresh lavender Take note: 2 minutes – soft gel which would make this great for easy dissolving into ice teas lemonades 4 minutes – medium gel for spreading on anything you desire , I made this last night at the request of a friend who purchased lavender just for this recipe She gave me 1/3c of lavender flowers and after reading some of the reviews with regard to lemon juice, I decided to use all of the lemon juice listed and use 1/3c of the lavender The flavor is excellent and amazing and it set up perfectly I’ve never had anything like this before I felt very sophisticated and elegant this morning eating this jelly on my English muffin I think this jelly would be wonderful on lemon grilled chicken, lemon scones, or even raspberry sorbert used 4 drops of purple food coloring and the color is like a blush wine color–very pretty I am so glad to have tried this recipe! Thanks so much for sharing; I am planning on growing my own lavender this summer just for this recipe!, This jelly is delicious and unique I like to make jam and jelly for gifts, and I like this because it’s different Next time I will cut down on the lemon juice a bit, it’s such a delicate flavor the lemon overpowers it a little bit And definately use fresh lemon juice, if it’s bottled you can really tell
