  • Clover jelly is simple and easy to make. Learn how to make clover jelly the easy way. Clover jelly has only a few simple ingredients: clover flowers, sugar, pectin, and lemon juice!
    We show you the easy old fashioned way how to make and can clover jelly. It's very easy to make but it is time consuming. You just have to pick the flowers, remove the stem, and make clover tea. Once you have the tea, it is easy to make clover jelly and can it in mason jars using the open kettle method with NO WATERBATH. Enjoy the bounty of spring clover even during the winter!
    We use this jelly on homemade southern biscuits and toast for breakfast. Clover jelly has the taste of honey and is perfect for breakfast on late spring mornings.
    Making jelly is a big part of the summer at most homesteads. Clover jelly signals the start of late spring and the canning season. Eating this wild flower jelly is a pleasure.

    Thank you, Jamie! I get kind of crazy about cleaning the jar rims. Love these jellies, all of the storms the last week has about destroyed the Honeysuckles.

      Same here. I get almost stupid about making sure they are clean. Those storms are now in north Alabama tonight! The clover jelly is actually super easy compared to honeysuckle or dandelion jelly.

    Never done this before, too bad my husband sprays around our yard, so doubt iI'll get to try. : (. But it looks delicious.

      That's a good point. Never would have thought about that when trying something like this

    My Grandmothers always wiped the rims of the jar with a towel damp with vinegar and I do it most of the time but I have used a Star San and water solution.

    I love your videos! I live in Etowah County Alabama and I’m so happy to have found a fellow Alabamian that does these kinds of videos. I’ve always heard to wipe your rims with vinegar instead of water. Do you just use water? I wonder if it even matters. I’m going to start canning one of these days! I’m thankful to have your videos to help me!

    • @useful.knowledge
      @useful.knowledge  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Thanks!! I’m in Morgan county so we are not too far from each other. I’ve always just used water on the lids because the hot jelly is going to destroy any contaminants when you turn the jar upside down but that vinegar idea is a real good one. Just pick you something like a jelly you want to make and give it a try. You will get hooked on canning!

    I saw your video yesterday and I went out today and picked my clover flowers. They are currently steeping now. Is there better flavor depending on when the flowers are picked? It was late afternoon when I picked mine, but I wonder if early morning has more nectar. I am so excited to make them into jelly tomorrow. Thank you for sharing how you do this. I'm inspired!

    • @useful.knowledge
      @useful.knowledge  Před 2 měsíci

      Excellent question but I don’t think so because I’ve made two more batches since everyone loves it so much and haven’t noticed a taste difference. I even picked 3 cups about 8 pm and made jelly about midnight. Thanks for watching and all the best on the jelly!

    just finished making this. Now waiting for my pings. IF one does not get all the film out, will it affect the flavor?

    • @useful.knowledge
      @useful.knowledge  Před měsícem

      Hi. I won’t affect the flavor and most of it will be on the top of the jelly when you open the jar. You can just remove it then. Just a heads up that sometimes skim will look like mold after a few months but it’s obviously not mold.
