Wstermelon Jelly! 🍉

Look at this… 👀 https://pin.it/6wJxtpR

Watermelons are one of the top selling Summer fruits. Next to Strawberries. When I was looking for today’s post yesterday this caught my eye. It combines two things I love: watermelons and canning. Yes! This jelly would be like have quailty watermelon year round.

This site shows how to extract the juice out of a watermelon. Hint: you don’t need a steam juicer. That’s what I thought at first. From there you mix pectin and sugar. Follow regular procedures for making jelly.

I said above that you would have watermelon year round. What to hell am I talking about? We have access to watermelon year round. How is the quality of the watermelon compared to ones you get from a local farmer? What about the cost? Yes! The local Kroger has watermelon year round. The quality isn’t the best. Whereas you go to a farmer’s market or roll up to someone with a truck load of watermelon is going to be far better. Just stick in in a cooler full of ice before cutting. Or cut it the day before you want to serve it. Plus, you jeep a local Farmer in business.

Hello y'all! I have hit a point in my life that I miss the simple dishes and times that my parents grew up in. People were kind to each other and the food was homemade from scratch. Before convince food was everywhere. Oh, those were the days... Let's reclaim them and start cooking from scratch again.
