Scuppernong jelly!

Made two jars of muscadine this evening. I used the recipe that includes pectin.
It begins to congeal much faster with the pectin added. The recipe makes two, 16oz jars.

I was at work the other day and walked outside for a short break. The smell of muscadines caught my attention.
Low and behold there was a vine full of them and the ground was covered in them as well.
In 30 minutes I had picked enough to make that batch of jelly.
 
I miss Mama.......
Mine has been gone for almost 4 years Brother, a big piece of my heart went with her.
My Grandmother has been gone for several more. When I tried this newest batch of jelly it made me get all choked up. It tasted just like the stuff my Grandmother used to make......My goal was achieved.
 
We have 2 huge vines at my grandparents...I guess I need to go over there and start picking this weekend. Would love to make some wine, mead or jelly with it all.
