Crab Apple & Clove Jelly..!!

:thumb: Crab Apple and Clove Jelly

2.5kg crab apples
6 cloves
warmed sugar

Chop the crab apples without peeling or coring them and put into a pan with the cloves and 1.75 litres water. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer until soft and pulpy.
Tip the contents of the pan into a scalded jelly bag over a large non-metallic container and allow to drip undisturbed for 8-12 hours - don't squeeze the jelly bag at all or you'll end up with cloudy jelly!
Measure the juice and pour into a clean pan. Add 450g warm sugar to every 570ml juice and heat gently, stirring until the sugar has dissolved.
Raise the heat and boil hard for 10 minuntes until setting point has been reached. Remove from the heat and skim off any scum from the surface. Pour into warm, clean dry jars, cover and seal and leave overnight to set. Store in a cool, dark, dry place.
