Directions
Roasted Garlic Jelly, This makes a wonderful glaze for meat or a spread or warm bread The recipe calls for white balsamic vinegar because it will create a light cover jelly If you are unable to find it make it with the dark balsamic but the jelly will be darker and have a more robust flavor Remember when making jellies to not squeeze the jelly bag to speed juice collection, doing so may produce a cloudy jelly This is from the Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving The recipe is for under 1, 000 feet elevation so adjust it for your area , I love this jelly! It made 9 – 4oz jars this was my first experiment with a savory jelly Had to try it because who doesn’t love roasted garlic, wine and balsamic? I serve it with triple-brie and water crackers delicious I did make it with 25 year old barrel-aged vinegar not the white (Olivier brand from Williams-Sonoma), This makes a wonderful glaze for meat or a spread or warm bread The recipe calls for white balsamic vinegar because it will create a light cover jelly If you are unable to find it make it with the dark balsamic but the jelly will be darker and have a more robust flavor Remember when making jellies to not squeeze the jelly bag to speed juice collection, doing so may produce a cloudy jelly This is from the Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving The recipe is for under 1, 000 feet elevation so adjust it for your area
