Ingredients

• ✓ gooseberry
• white sugar
• liquid pectin

Instructions

1. 1 Remove blossom and stem ends from gooseberries. Force berries through a food mill. Measure 4 cups of berry mash into a large pot. Stir in sugar. Bring to a full rolling boil over high heat, and boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, and stir in pectin. Skim off any foam with a large metal spoon.
2. 2 Sterilize jars and lids in boiling water for at least 10 minutes. Alternate skimming the foam and stirring the berry mixture while letting it cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Ladle into hot, sterile jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
3. 3 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 10 minutes.
4. 4 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). Store in a cool, dark area.
