Making one's own jelly gives one access to all kinds of flavors one cannot buy. Jelly can be sweet or savory as a marinade and rub. In this hands-on class, students will use seasonal fruit to prepare a simple jelly recipe. This class will cover the basics of making jelly at home and talk about both sweet and savory jellies: selecting and preparing the fruit, making the juice, preparing and filling the jars, and processing. Each participant will leave with their own half pint of jelly and the confidence to make more at home.
