Jelly from Paradise Apples

Jelly made from crab apples

Wash the apples in cold water, remove the stems, and place them in an enameled bowl. Sprinkle with sugar, add water, and set in a warm place. The next day, simmer on low heat for one and a half to two hours.

To check if the jam is ready, drop a little syrup onto a saucer and separate the drop into two halves. If they slowly come back together, the jam is done.

For every cup of apples: use 1 cup of sugar and 2 to 2.5 tablespoons of water.
