Comments
Makes no sense to use 3 different units of measure in this recipe (pint, cups, pounds...)
Anyone reading this, please be aware that inverting to seal a jar is no longer considered to be safe, and any jelly or jam to be kept on a shelf must be processed appropriately.
This is a silly and outdated recipe, as noted by other comments.
