WARNING: Make sure you have an expert with you. If you mistake Queen Anne' s Lace for, say, hemlock or snakeroot, both of which are poisonous!
Queen Anne's Lacy Jelly
15 large flower heads
3 1/2 cups of boiling water
Place flower heads in boiling water, remove from heat, and allow to steep for fifteen minutes. This yields 3 cups of infusion.
3 cups of infusion
3 3/4 cups of sugar
1 box of powdered pectin
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Add pectin to infusion and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly.
Add sugar, all at once, and lemon juice, stirring over high heat. Bring to a full rolling boil for one minute, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat, skim off foam, and pour jelly into sterile jars.
