I was digging through my canning recipes looking for a recipe
for a friend and tucked in the back 40 acres of recipes I have collected
was an Herbed Apple Jelly Recipe on an old Ball brochure.

3 cups apple juice
1 pkg Ball 100% Natural Fruit Pectin
2 four inch springs fresh herbs (basil, rosemary or thyme)
4 1/2 cups of sugar

combine apple juice and pectin in a large saucepan. Tie herbs in a
cheesecloth bag and add to juice mixture. Bring mixture to a boil over
high heat. Add sugar and return to a rolling boil. Boil hard for 1
minute, stirring constantly. discard cheesecloth bag. Remove from heat
and skim foam if necessary. Cafefully ladle into hot sterilized jars,
leaving 1/4" head space. Adjust caps. Process 5 minutes in a boiling
water bath canner. Yield@ 4 8 oz jars. :-) Let us know how it tastes
if you try it!!! Best wishes! Fern

Stuffed Peppers
6 medium, square peppers
boiling water
1/2 cup butter (divided)
1 tsp dill seed
1 tsp paprika
1 1/2 tsp salt (or less)
1 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp or so ground coriander seed
3 cups hot mashed potatoes
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
(the original recipe calls for 1 tsp dried dill weed instead of seed, 3 Tbs
fresh coriander instead of the seed, and 1 tsp asafoetida powder) Slice
lid off pepper, cut away center piece of lid. Gut pepper. Plunge pepper
into boiling water for 2 to 3 minutes, remove, and drain upside down. Pour
4 Tbs of the melted butter into a saucepan over low heat. Saute the dill,
paprika, salt, basil, and coriander. (If using the asafoetida, saute that
first for a few moments, then add the rest of the herbs. ) Saute briefly,
remove from heat. (You could just mix the herbs and the melted butter
together if leaving out the asafoetida and should be fine). Mix potatoes,
3/4 of the cheese, and the herbed butter in a bowl until smooth. Stuff
peppers. Sprinkle rest of cheese on top. Replace lids. Place in a baking
dish, brush with rest of butter and bake at 350F) for 30 to 40 minutes or
until the peppers are tender and lightly browned.

Yield: 6 servings

6 Fresh cleaned trout
6 Rosemary sprig, fresh; or
1 T Rosemary, dried
3 oz Butter; softened
18 Mint leaves, fresh; or
2 ts Mint leaves, dried
2 ts Thyme, dried
6 Sage leaf, fresh; or
1 ts Sage, dried; scant
1 ts Sea salt
1/4 ts Pepper, black

Put one sprig or generous shake of rosemary down the middle of each
fish. Chop all the other herbs and seasonings and mash them into the
soft butter. Use this to coat the fish generously on each side.
Griddle, barbeque or grill it for 4-5 minutes on each side or till
the skin is well browned and the flesh flaking off the bone. Baste
now and then with the butter which runs off. Serve at once with lot
of fresh bread and a salad or a simple green vegetable.

The herbs are what might have been used in Anglo-Saxon East Anglia,
but use whatever you might fancy. Try to use fresh, although dried is
acceptable.
