Immediately fill all containers to within 1/2 in. of tops. Wipe off top edges of containers; cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Cover and let stand overnight or until set. But not longer than 24 hours., Jelly is now ready to use. Refrigerate up to 3 weeks or freeze up to 1 year. Thaw frozen jelly in refrigerator before serving.

ORANGE JUICE JELLY

Steps:

• Place the orange juice concentrate, water, and pectin in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Once the mixture reaches a boil, add the sugar, and return to a simmer, stirring constantly. Boil hard for 1 minute, then remove from the heat and skim off any scum that has formed at the top.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pour the jelly into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/2 inch of the top. 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, then 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 5 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all).

ORANGE JELLY

Steps:

• Place your jars into your canning pot, fill with water and bring to a boil. Because this jelly is only processed for five minutes, you need to add this jar sterilization step.
• Put your lids in a small pot and bring to a very gentle simmer (180 degrees) while you make the jam.
• In a large, non-reactive pot, combine the sugar and orange juice and bring them to a boil. Cook at a boil until they're greatly reduced. Using an instant read thermometer, watch until the pot reaches 220 degrees (this is important. Skip this step and you'll end up with orange syrup in place of your jelly). Add the liquid pectin and allow to boiling for an additional five minutes (the goal is to reach 220 degrees again and maintain it for at least three minutes).
• Pour the jelly into prepared jars. Wipe rims, apply lids and screw on bands. Process in a boiling water canner for five minutes.

Steps:

• Core apples but leave on peel.
• Pour apple juice and concentrate into a large, heavy pot. Add apples, 4 cinnamon sticks, and ground cinnamon. Bring to a boil and cook until apples are soft, about 15 minutes.
• Remove apples with a slotted spoon and place in a food processor. Pulse until no longer chunky, then put back into the pot and cook for another 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, inspect five pint-sized jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until jelly is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
• Use a fine mesh strainer to strain out apples, and place applesauce in a container and refrigerate to eat later. Strain juice again using many layers of cheesecloth. Pour the liquid back into the pot with the cinnamon sticks.
• Add sugar and pectin and bring to a rolling boil, adding butter just before it boils to keep it from foaming.
• Ladle into the prepared jars, adding a fresh cinnamon stick to each jar if desired. Place the seals and lids on the jars, making sure to clean the rims of any syrup that may have gotten on the mouths of the jars.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 20 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place them upside down on a towel for 45 minutes to help the lids to seal. Turn jars over and let rest for 12 to 24 hours.
