This year, I was able to get a bunch of grapes from Grandma. They were a little more sour this year than in the past. Knowing that my husband and I would never eat them all, I decided to try and make some jam.
First I took the skin off of the grapes, saving the skins in a bowl, while cooking the seeds out of the rest of the grapes.
The seeds did start coming out of the grapes. When this happened, the hard part was next. I had to drain the seeds out of the grape mush. This took a long time. The grape mush did not want to drain through anything. When the seeds finally came out, I put the mush back into the pan and added the grape skins with enough sugar to make it sweet.
The rest was easy. All I had to do was cook it on low, and stir occasionally. Finally, I had jam!
It was pretty good. We enjoyed some on our cheesecake cookies, and then later on some toast. It didn't make a lot of jam, but it was worth it.
