Mint Jelly Recipe • Homemade Jelly for Savory & Sweet! | Club Foody

Every April or early May, depending on the weather here on the West Coast, David and I start our herb garden along with some fruits and vegetables. We don’t start them from seeds but buy them in those little containers with the herb already growing. From there, we transplant them… it’s much easier. There is one that we can leave outside all winter and it comes back each spring; it’s mint.
 
I have a wide selection of homemade condiments; from Sweet & Savory Homemade Ketchup, Thai Yellow Curry Paste, Mornay Sauce to Strawberry Butter and many more… These really help to enhance the flavor in recipes or a great accompaniment for dishes such as my Mint Jelly!
 
As you know, Mint Jelly is typically paired with lamb and in particular with Lamb Chops or Roasted Leg of Lamb. I also like to mix some jelly with my horseradish and rub it on pork roast. Another great use for this condiment is to make Mint Thumbprint Cookies along with Strawberry Thumbprint Cookies for the Holidays. It is such a beautiful festive presentation… You can bake other cookies like linzer and sandwich.
 
While making it, many of you will expect to see that green color in the jars at the supermarkets and restaurants. Don’t be surprised to see a golden honey color instead. The simple way to achieve that “commercial” green color is to add a few drops of natural food coloring.
 
Making your own Mint Jelly is quite easy plus you’ll be avoiding the “commercial food coloring”. Also, it is quite economical to make from scratch and these little jars are a great gift to give to your friends and family this Christmas…
Bon Appétit!
