More than 30-40 minutes. Best advice is to get a candy thermometer. They only cost a few bucks, and you may well even find them in your grocery store. And Tom, I just want to thank you for opening up the world of jelly-making to me with this wonderful recipe. Since making it last fall (I'm the Cindi from above), my 11-year-old nephew won't eat regular store-bought anymore. I have to make special batches just for him. And now I'm embarking on adding other fruits to this apple recipe as well - starting with the peach-apple I've got cooking right now. So thank you. :) Amber, I know from personal experience it takes a LONG time. More than 30-40 minutes. Best advice is to get a candy thermometer.

If you don't have a thermometer try the spoon test. Here's a link that shows how it should look when it ready to jar up: http://www.uga.edu/nchfp/how/can_07/jelly_point.html Another tip, you want a pan that is wide and allows a lot of steam to escape.

My question still remains... How long do you cook the jelly? I don't have a thermometer so I just hard boiled it for about 30-40 min. The jars are still cooling, but it doesn't look like they are setting up. I might alot of syrup on my hands :) Please advise about how long do you boil the juice after you have added the sugar. Thank you in advance. Amber Well, I just tried my first batch as well. My question still remains… How long do you cook the jelly?

Just boil a few fresh sprigs of rosemary in the jelly solution and remove before canning. Time for me to make some as well; next batch is Apple Rosemary Jelly, one of my favorites.

The first batch has actually gone to good use - I made caramel apple brownies with one jar of it which was a huge success with my coworkers! Once I'm done with it all, I may have to actually TRY to recreate that for more. ;) So the last batch came out perfect, and I'm preparing to make another, so this is fantastic. Thanks again so so much for all your help in making this possible. Hey, no problem.
