MINT JELLY
Found this recipe at recipegoldmine while looking for a mint jelly that does not require apples or apple juice. Made this up and my DH who so loves mint jelly with his lamb (I don't) loves this. This is an easy recipe, and I will never have to run to the Market to buy Mint Jelly again when we have lamb. Yipee!!!

Steps:
- Crush mint leaves (I did a rough chop). Add water. Bring to a boil.
- Remove from heat, cover and let stand 10 minutes. Strain and measure 3 cups of mint infusion.
- Add food coloring and lemon juice. Add Sure-Jell, dissolve and bring to a rapid boil.
- Add sugar. Cook fast, stirring occasionally until it comes to a rapid boil that cannot be stirred down, then cook 1 minute more.
- Pour into sterilized jelly glasses and seal. I processed in the steam canner for 10 minutes to insure a good seal.

CANNED MINT JELLY
This easy to make mint jelly is a perfect accompaniment to lamb or as an added surprise to an exotic sandwich. It's even great on toast. By coarsely chopping the mint leaves and using a good abundance of green food coloring, you get a full-flavored resort with a tempting and appetizing color. Bon Appetit!

Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids and screw on rings.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat; carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.

MINT JELLY
One whiff is all it takes to tell what we grow on our farm-peppermint! Harvesting 300 acres is hard work, by the invigorating scent keeps our taste buds tuned for minty treats. I use fresh mint or mint oil frequently in my cooking and baking. Try this aromatic jelly on lamb or oven-fresh biscuits.-Kandy Clarke, Columbia Falls, Montana

OLD FASHION APPLE-MINT JELLY
Warning honey sweetened jellies require longer cooking times than sugar jellies. I have not put in amounts because the juice you get from the apples will vary. I put the proportions of the other ingredients in the directions.

Steps:
- Wash the apples and remove the stems and dark spots. Quarter but do not peel or core. Place in a medium size enamel pot.
- Add just enough water to half cover the fruit. Cook over low heat until fruit is soft (about 1 hour) place cooked apples in a jelly bag and drain out the liquid. You will get more juice if you squeeze the bag but the jelly will be cloudy if you do.
- Measure the juice. Add 1/2 c honey for each cup of juice. Boil until jelly is done.
- To test if your jelly is done remove the syrup from the heat and scoop up a small amount of jelly with a cold metal spoon. Raise it about a foot above above the pot away from the steam and wait about 20 seconds. Tip the spoon so that the syrup slides off the side of the spoon. If the syrup forms two drops that flow together and slide off the spoon in one sheet the jelly should be done. If it slides off in several separate drops cook it longer.
- Add 1/4 c mint leaves for every quart of juice. Stir and allow to cook 1 minute further.
- Remove leaves and ladle into hot sterile jars. Seal and process in a boiling water bath for 5 minutes or as according to canners instructions.
- For special occasions you can pour hot jelly into buttered molds.
SPICY LEMON-MINT JELLY
This easy jelly, which you can store in your refrigerator for a week or so, adds a jazzy note to lamb, pork, even an oily fish. The mint's coolness is balanced by tart lemon, and a tone of red-pepper flakes answers them both. Think of it as a musical riff on the old staid green mint jelly.

Steps:
- Use a vegetable peeler to remove the zest (yellow part only) from 4 of the lemons. Cut the zest into fine julienne. Remove the peel and pith from all of the lemons and cut the sections out from between the membranes.
- Place the julienned lemon peel, lemon sections, water, sugar and pepper flakes in a large nonreactive saucepan and mix well. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat slightly and simmer for 20 minutes. Place a small saucer in the freezer.
- Add the mint sprigs to the mixture and simmer for 10 minutes longer. Check the jelly by placing a spoonful on the saucer and returning it to the freezer for about 5 minutes. If the mixture jells when you push your finger through it, it is ready. If not, simmer a little longer and test again.
- Remove the pan from the heat and let cool. Remove the mint sprigs and stir in the chopped mint. Place in a clean container and store in the refrigerator.
