Mango Jam

Yield: 6 Servings



4 cup mango pulp (buy about 6 lb)

1/4 cup lemon juice

6 cup sugar

1 pkg dry pectin



Wash fruit, peel, seed %26amp; cut in cubes. Mash with a potato masher

or run through a food processor or blender - try NOT to puree. In

a 10 qt pan, mix fruit, lemon juice and pectin. Place over high

heat; stirring constantly, bring to a rolling boil that cannot be

stirred down. Still stirring, add sugar. Return to a boil that

cannot be stirred down, then boil for exactly 2 minutes. Remove

from heat; skim off foam. Ladle hot jam into prepared half-pint

jars. Wipe rims clean. Place lids on jars and firmly screw on rings.

Process in boiling water bath for ten minutes. Makes about 6 1/2

cups.





Mint Jelly



2 cups sugar

1 cup water

1/2 cup white vinegar

1/2 lemon juiced

6 large sprigs of mint ( 4-5" in length)



Stir sugar and water over medium heat to boil until sugar dissolves.

Add vinegar and lemon juice and return to steady boil. Boil over

medium heat 15-18 minutes (skimming as required).



Wash and drain the sprigs of mint and add to the boiling syrup.

boil one minutes. Take off heat and let cool to room temperature.

Store in closed container in refrigerator. One traditional way to

use this is to dip leaves of lettuce in it and eat. It is also

good to drink. A little bit in a glass of cold soda water.

Strawberry Jam

(Makes 3 pints.)



4 pints strawberries, washed and stemmed

2-ounce package low-sugar pectin (such as SlimSet)

3 cups honey



In a large saucepan, gently mash berries. Add pectin to mashed

berries. Bring to a vigorous boil, stirring frequently, boil for

1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in honey. Quickly and carefully

ladle jam into 3 hot sterilized pint jars, filling to 1/4 inch from

tops.



Wipe rims of jars, top with lids. Screw on bands. Place jars on

rack in canning kettle of hot water, adding water if necessary to

bring water level to 1 inch above tops of jars. Bring water to a

rolling boil, boil for 10 minutes. Remove jars carefully and cool

on a wire rack.





I am not sure what rockmelon is?
