The one downfall was that the recipe I used took 2 days to make. Have you made it and had it take two days as well? My recipe was from a Better Homes & Gardens canning magazine.

I could eat with a spoon!!! Also, I boiled the watermelon mixture for 15 minutes (I didn't mess with the whole thermometer thing). Added the pectin and Jello then Boiled another 5 minutes (I added 6 tablespoons of Ball pectin powder and it set perfectly) I wanted more of a thick jelly as opposed to a thinner jam.

I only used 1.5c sugar and about a half packet of pectin (the other half went into this same recipe but with honeydew melon!) and it set perfectly. I had to follow their instructions on amount of sweetener and pectin to use because it's a little different than yours, but boy does it taste great! Thank you so much for this!!!

I grew up on a farm in the 1950's & '60's, & that's all we ever used for non-reactive pots & pans. I sold a lot of homemade jams, jellies & pickled foods, & always used only stainless steel for cooking. <br /><br />Do not use aluminum or tin, etc. Try cooking tomatoes, lemon juice, tomato sauce, etc. in one of those pots & see what happens to the pot. Plus, I'd hate to taste the resulting product.....<br /><br />Love the watermelon jam/ jellies, they're great! ~Karen~http://www.facebook.com/krp1956noreply@blogger.com
