CHOKECHERRY JELLY WITH LIQUID PECTIN
To extract the juice, wash all fruits thoroughly before cooking. Add enough water to cover the washed fruit and cook 15 minutes or until fruit is soft. DO NOT CRUSH OR GRIND THE SEEDS WHICH CONTAIN A CYANIDE-FORMING COMPOUND THAT CAN BE TOXIC. When fruit is tender, press lightly through a colander. Then, let juice drip through a double layer of cheesecloth or a jelly bag. Excessive pressing or squeezing of cooked fruit will cause cloudy jelly. One pound of fruit should yield at least 1 cup of clear juice.
