Watermelon Jelly
by bertscannery on July 16, 2009 in Canning
Recipe Description
If you like the flavor of watermelon you will like this!
Preparation Instructions
Food process or blend watermelon until completely smooth. That should make about 2 C of juice.
At this point I strain mine, but you do have to.
In a 6- to 8-quart Dutch oven combine the watermelon puree, sugar and lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a full rolling boil (a boil that cannot be stirred down) over high heat, stirring constantly.
Stir in the pectin all at once. Return mixture to a full rolling boil; boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Take off heat. Skim off foam.
Ladle jelly into clean hot half-pint jars, leaving 1/4-inch head space.
Process in a boiling water bath canner for 10min. Allow to cool completely away from drafts, then store in cool, dark place. Makes 4 half-pints.

If you are lucky enough to live where the cherries are aplenty I advise you to print out this Sweet Cherry Vanilla Jam recipe and tape it somewhere that you will not forget about it when the cherries come into season! Or you can use frozen cherries like I did.
This recipe was made using the new Ball Jam & Jelly Maker but you can make it the traditional way also.

I’m going to give this a shot. Never had watermelon jelly before. It may be a great glaze to finish off a ham. I’ll submit a review with the results.

Nope. No good. The jelly didn’t set. Any ideas on how to correct the problem? Guess I’ll need to stick with standards like plum jelly.
Valerie {mayday81} on 9.18.2009
My jelly, as well, did not set! In fact, once canned the jelly separated…. I have floating watermelon on top, and what I can only assume is a thick syrup on the bottom. Haven’t opened my jars to investigate ’cause they look so pretty… *grin* Any idea what might have gone wrong? My boil wasn’t a simmer — it was raging! I used Ball powdered pectin; perhaps I should’ve gone with SureJell? Would that make a difference?
ellieb on 10.26.2009
mine didn’t set either – it is a runny watermelon syrup..
I’m thinking of freezing it and making watermelon vodka cocktails with it?
redhen on 11.3.2009
I’ve made watermelon jelly successfully. After you blend the melon the contents will settle. Only use the pulp and not the liquid. My friend and I both used the same recipe. Her’s did not set up but mine did. The only difference was that I only used the pulp and not the whole contents of the blender. It’s like summer in a jar.

Thank you for this recipe! I love watermelon and will make this in the summer, Janet
redfox on 8.4.2011
I just pulled mine out of the water bath, and it looks really runny inside the jars too. I wish I had read the reviews first. I used the juice only, not the pulp
