Grape Jelly Hack - from Store Bought Juice, Easy and Simple: Canning Inspiration

Grape Jelly Hack - from Store Bought Juice, Easy and Simple: Canning Inspiration.
Today I am making some grape jelly using store bought juice.
I hope this inspires you to try something new if you have never canned before or re-inspires you if you have not canned in a while.
I was inspired by other youtubers such as
Chef Jeffrey at / oldschoolsoulfood
and the Kneady Homesteader at: / thekneadyhomesteader
I used:
6 cups welches no sugar added grape juice
7 cups sugar
1 to 2 Tbls butter
2 boxes of original Surejel

Leslie, you may want to give Acres Homestead a watch. Becky gardens and is a preservationist and cans about everything. You never have to explain why you chose to do what you do. People admire you for many reasons and the "haters" are far less than those that appreciate you!

[@Kristine6188]

Becky is amazing and well worth watching.

[@TheFarmingPastorsWife]

I have watched them I enjoy them!

[@susanhafner6906]

When my mama made grape jelly I stood there and waited so she could give me that foamy grape stuff off the top it was my favorite nothing better than hot grape jelly on fresh baked bread

[@virginiawimer8064]

That jelly that doesn't set up makes delicious syrup.

[@janedavis81]

I have made grape and apple from 100% grape juice not from concentrated. It turned out so much better than the fresh fruit to me. Delish!!!!! I bought my juice at the Dollar General

[@berlyn3014]

This video brought back so many memories. When I was little before my mom lost her eyesight she would can a lot every year. We had the old fashioned jar funnel like you had in a previous video. I can remember her letting me "help" with the grape jelly. We had funnel shaped strainer with a stand and a wooden thing you used to mash the juice out of the fruit. Now I know she would let it cool down a bit and had already gotten most of the juice out but she would let me help mash the grapes in that strainer and get some juice out. Thanks for the memories.

[@lindaelkins3563]

I make my grape jelly the same way, and girl, try making the Mango/Peach jelly using the juice!!! It's soooo good

[@barbaramelchert8621]

I'm canning some jelly!! Woo hoo!! Thank you for sharing!!

[@beckyholder1896]

That’s like my Mother-n-law when my kids were little she would put butter on her plate and some jelly and mix it together then put it on her biscuit. My son does that too.

[@diannabeal1876]

I have made this and also with sugar free apple juice that I added cinnamon. Yummy!! Thank you Leslie, you are such a sweet person and I love your channel.

This brought back memories of going with my grandparents to get concord grapes so she could make jelly...i was just a kid but i loved going with them...oh and boy was that jelly delicious...i sure miss them to this day.. this recipe looks so much easier and i bet its great too...thanks Leslie...😘🙏💖🍇🍇🍇

[@bonniemacdougall4589]

You set my timer when you instructed Alexa. Second time you've done that to me today. Cracks me up!

[@Trippledna]

Thank you for this recipe❤

[@MNTNSTARZ80.]

Before anyone gives you grief about putting butter in the jelly... the USDA canning cookbook actually says to put butter in jams and jellies to reduce foaming. It also has jelly recipes for making with unsweetened store bought juices

[@helenguilford7510]

Thank you for showing me a new way to make jelly. I am going to try apple jelly. I love it on French Toast.

[@bamagirl6403]

That's great. That cut out alot of work. I love BlackBerry jelly. I will have to see if they have that juice. Thanks Leslie!

Hello Leslie! Thank you for sharing the way you make grape jelly. You make it look so simple, and it looks delicious with sausage! Good for you! God bless!

Jelly has gone up a lot, I just ran out of a couple of different kinds and went to the store and it is outrageous, so thanks for showing how to do it

You are so welcome!

[@teresacompton4896]

I made some grape jelly from juice the other week and also some strawberry/kiwi jelly from the juice as well. I tried looking for a recipe for the strawberry / kiwi and couldn’t find anything on it so I just followed the recipe for the surejell apple juice and it was so good. Love watching your videos and your food looks so good. Thank you for sharing your family and your life with us. God bless y’all.

[@roberthicks5704]

Nothing better than homemade jams and jellies. My daddy always made the most delicious pear preserves from a neighbors tree. They were super yummy with a homemade hot buttered biscuit on a cold winter morning.

[@rebeccajones9735]

I made both grape and apple jelly from store-bought juice and used the Kneady Homesteader's recipe. That was a couple years ago. I gave it for Christmas presents.

[@ruthmccormick3246]

I have made jelly from fresh and from juice I canned. yummy,.great memories. This is the first year I haven't canned inbyears, I do miss it. I enjoy listening, visiting with you while you cook or whatever you do!! God bless you and yours❤🙏🙏❤

[@bettehuwe3766]

I just got done making both jam and jelly out of red globe grapes I got from a food give away. It turned out great. It was a true blessing to me to get the free grapes and I had everting else on hand.I may have to try this recipe..

[@grandmaking]

I would have never thought of using Welch’s Grape Jelly. I always used my own grape juice that I put up. I always enjoyed making jelly. You’d looks like it turned out great!

[@bypassgirl]

I love grape jelly on my sausage biscuits, too. I'm getting into canning and plan to make jelly....you made it look easy, thanks!

I'll have to try this with strawberry or cranberry juice. I love cranberries. Daniel loves strawberries.

Hi Leslie, your jelly looks really good. I am a big fan of grape jelly. My peanut butter and jelly sandwiches have to have grape jelly and Jif peanut butter. Keep being you and what you do and don't worry about it.

I love Rachel and Todd and the 1870 homestead 😊

[@pamelamontuori4717]

Leslie, you brought back memories! Thank you. I am 67 years old and made this same jelly in 7th grade Home Economics. That year we learned to fry egg in a hole with an orange sauce from concentrate. I so appreciate all you share on your channel. Congratulations on your doctor visit, you look great!

[@susieyarbrough9845]

One of the first things I learned to make in 8th grade home ec was biscuits and grape jelly from juice.

[@loriupton5090]

My grandmother made hundreds of gallons of jelly from fresh berries and from concentrate, and she would stand and skim that froth off by hand with a big spoon, and we would always open a jar of jelly and oh it was soooo good, thank you for the wonderful memories

[@bypassgirl]

My soul sista!!!! I grew up eating scrambled egg sandwiches with mayo and grape jelly!!! Never met anyone else that likes grape jelly on their eggs!

[@maggieslifeisawildride512]

I helped my sister make grape jelly and juice once...from picking the grapes, mashing and straining them, all the way through the process. It is a tedious task but so worth it. I can't wait to try this because cutting out all the steps up to having the actual juice is fantastic! My mom and I like to eat our jelly kind of the same but instead of toast we would make fried cornmeal mush. YUM!!!! You really do inspire because I'm gonna have to make some mush now just to eat some grape jelly...Lol! Perfect timing because we are finally dropping our temps and it's really beginning to feel like fall. The perfect time for tummy-warming foods.

[@graceandglory1948]

I made strawberry jam this year, and it didn't set right, either. I use mine for pancake syrup. Delicious. :)

[@donnahawkinsharper8344]

Good morning Leslie. I haven’t been watching you tube that much cause I too have been canning. I have put up snap beans, peach preserves, cinnamon applesauce, spiced apples and plain applesauce. Now! I’m definitely going to make your grape jelly! Yum! Going today & get the grape juice. I bet you could make apple jelly with juice as well. Thank you sweet friend. Oh by the way the hay has been being cut and baled here in the mountains too. Fall is definitely here in the mountains. As I type this it’s 46 outside & quite breezy. The leaves are beginning to change color. Such a wonderful time of year. Bless all of you! Have a wonderful day. 😊🙏❤️💕❤️

I used the frozen concentrate juice to make jelly. After I wash my jars, I put them in 9x13 cake pans with a little water and set my temperature at 250 deg. Leave in there untill your ready to fill.

[@annlee368]

Leslie I was always taught to spoon the foam off

[@TheFarmingPastorsWife]

Yes if you have alot of foam you need to spoon it off. The butter helped me in not having much so I didn't have to spoon much off.

[@bjquilts29]

It works with apple juice too. I like to use the cinnamon apple juice. It has to be 100% apple juice.

You can also use the "Juicy Jucie " juice all the different flavors... Possibilities are endless.
