 MUSCADINE JELLY
Here's a recipe, along with some tips, that allow you to cook up a batch of your very own Muscadine Jelly.
First you need to find a local farmer that grows Muscadine Grapes or check with your local farmers market.
We found our grapes through Ben Burkett with B&B Farms/Indian Springs Cooperative located in Petal, MS.
Then we went and picked our own, what an experience!
METHOD
Now that we have the grapes lets get started!
1.  Discard stems and leaves.
2.  Wash the muscadines in plain cold water.
3.  Place in 6-8 quart sauce pan, cover with water and bring to a boil.
     Reduce heat & simmer for 10 minutes.
4.  Crush fruit so it extracts the juice.
5.  Place 3 layers of cheesecloth or jelly bag in large bowl. Tie cheesecloth closed.
     Hang and let drip into bowl, pressing gently.
6.  Measure 4 cups of juice. Pour in sauce pan add 7 cups of sugar.
     Bring to a boil, then add 3 oz liquid pectin bring to another boil.
7.  Let sit for one minute, then scrap off foam that is on top and discard.
8.  Quickly ladle into jars, leaving 1/8 inch space on top. Wipe rim and threads.
9.  Cover with the lid Place in hot water bath with 2 inch of water over jars and leave

10. Take jars out of water bath (tongs are useful here) and let sit overnight.
