I use the oven to get all of the good stuff out of a lemon I'm going to cook with. I bake it on about 150 to 200 until it swells a bit. Take it out, let it cool enough to handle (with a towel because I'm a bit impatient) cut off only one end. Using a fork scramble it like and egg, over a bowl with a flour strainer. Only the white stuff (piff 😊) and the seeds are left in the strainer. If I need it I then use a cheese grater (usually the small side) to get the zest from the then flat peel. After seeing this great video I'll make sure to save and dehydrate my peels from now on. Thanks for the time and effort you put into these videos. Great work. They are very informative and nice to watch.
My mouth has been watering through the whole process. I'll bet this really is delicious. How fortunate to receive this gift of lemons because they are so expensive. Have a Blessed day.
I had purchased an abundance of lemons reduced in price for a quick sale and I ended up I made some lemon curd for the first time I turned out really good
I just made this recipe two weeks ago. I can’t stress enough to get every little bit of the white pith off the lemon before boiling it. It makes the jelly just slightly bitter if even a sliver is left on. I learned the hard way.
I have been using the lemon jelly in a mini sugar cookie cup that I bake in a mini muffin pan. Then fill with lemon jelly and add a raspberry on top. A crowd favorite
Oh, my. My sister in law, now in heaven, was a wonderful cook and food "preservist" (is that a word? lol). Seeing your jelly bag vividly reminded me of seeing her do the same thing with the concord grapes she and her husband grew in their garden. Oh, the things she could have taught me. But i was young and arrogant and she was gentle and humble, not one to push. I love lemon and would gladly follow Phil's example. Just give me a spoon! Yum...looks absolutely wonderful. Leisa. (:
I have a huge lemon tree. I've been juicing and throwing them in ice cube trays. We go around the block with bags and bags of lemons giving them away to neighbors. I think I'll try this instead, and give them a really nice upgraded surprise! Thanks Leisa!
I can hardly watch this. It makes my juices flow. I'm drooling just watching the video. We love lemon drop candies. I dug looking to see if I had any left I take half of my stash to Pop he adores them as well. I'm so gonna do this. Well done Leisa. Thanks for sharing.
I've never heard of lemon jam before. I guess it's similar to our orange marmalade. I think it would make a great filling for a lemon drizzle cake with lemon icing on top.
I was looking through an old CWA (Country Women’s Association - an Australian group) cookbook the other day and they had a couple of lemon marmalade recipes. My neighbour has a lemon tree and is inundated at the moment so I’m thinking I might give it a try.
Very labor intensive but it looks delicious. Instead of using the jelly bag could the fruit, peels, etc. be boiled in a steamer/juicer and the juice drawn off through the hose apparatus?
I tie my cheese cloth either on my pot handles like a sling suspended inside my pot or on my lid handle, then flip my lid inside out and hang the cloth inside my pot from the lid.
Try cutting the lemon like you would segment a grapefruit. Points (nubs) face left and right, cut lemon in half, Slice off tips to stablize lemon, trim the white segment all around the lemon and scrape out with spoon.. it may be easier. Im going to try this. Thank you for sharing. May your family stay healthy in these times. Im going to try it as a pre sweetened hot lemon drink.
I made your Baked Bean recipe the other day, and it is amazingly delicous, you're a winner, winner baked bean dinner! Thanks you so much. The Lemon Drop Jelly looks wonderful too! Little lemon tarts, yumo!
I will have to keep this in mind next yr when our lemon trees are ready to harvest. I usually juice the lemons, freeze the juice and make lemonaid (and use in cooking/baking recipes) throughout the yr. Whatever lemons we cant use we give to friends and family. Thank you for the recipe!!
Leisa, such a gorgeous color and it’s probably delicious. Lemon jelly is hard to find, but I love to make tarts and I bet Thad would taste great. 👍👍🌹🌹❤️
Looks just delicious! Maybe just squeeze the lemons and get the juice out and then shave off the skins with a shaver. You wouldn’t have to wait for them to drain overnight in a cheesecloth and then you would be sure to have enough.
My grandmother had a jelly bag that she would put all of the hot stuff into and then she would tie the top and hang it from the side of her big tall pot. :-)
Got a bunch of lemons today for $2.98 and Target 🎯 had a lot of canning jars I made a double batch oh lemon jelly. 😋. Fiesta beans are next. Then #25 lb ground beef from freezer. Then more corned beef. And so on and so on. Pineapple and pineapple salsa was yesterday. I love my new toy 🤩
I love lemon drops so I know I will like this. As I do with any recipe that is new to me my mind immediately goes to trying variations. Maybe make orange or Satsuma.
Okay. I'm in the process of making this now. I have 6 myer lemons and 2 regular lemons. I hope it turns out great. I didn't have cheese cloth or jelly bags so I used 2 coffee filters.
I believe lime would be delicious. Jams and jellies water bath is always 15 minutes. My best marmalade was lime,mandarin, lemon, orange and grapefruit. I also use this to sweeten tea. I think lemon juice from bottle would be great. Lemon rind grated would work especially if you have only 1-2 lemons.
Wonder how would be in dressing for fruit salad? Just bought that canning book!! Thanks for bringing it up might have never seen it!! God bless and stay safe!! Janell
Another way to get that pith out of the picture would be to cut the lemon in half and use a grapefruit spoon to scoop out the fruit; not sure it would be faster, but I'll let you know, because this jam is on my "to do" list.
Couldn't you cut up the rind into strips and leave it in, like in marmalade? It would add a little bulk and maybe nutrition. I usually peel my citrus and let the peels air dry. It usually only takes a few days then either throw the peels whole into tea or grind in spice grinder for seasonings. I don't feel the need to dehydrate them. Just thought I'd share that. (I'm the one who chatted with you in your live stream about a week ago who lives in East Jordan, nail of the ring finger lol)
Hey, I'm Laura and I find myself looking every day for your videos. Im retired and prep. Love canning and preserving. I love this idea. I don't have the lemons but will be buying some soon. Im looking to can different types of fruit lemonades. too
Marybeth, lemon marmalade is very good too...unless it's the texture of marmalade you don't like. My very favorite though is grapefruit, orange and lemon marmalade.
lovely recipe for jelly. I would not use bottled lemon juice. All together different :/ taste. I have a Hugh lemon tree, two crops a year and I make lots of marmalades and fig jam (fig tree too). We eat a jar of ( cuties mandarin orange marmalade ) a week no pectin required... no kidding, husband loves it and so do I. If you interested..I can't help but mention this because its so delicious and super, super easy pressure cooker recipe/video. It is on Salted Peppers videos. it can also be made with lemons.

Those look beautiful. Try a spoonful in a cup of tea. Add a splash of rum.😋
Wow! That's a winner!! Jelly filled doughnuts, anyone??
Ooooohhhhhh!!! Drool!

Can you zest the lemons BEFORE you bake them?

Yes, and the ones in the grocery stores are horrible quality!
@@LeeLynn-vq8yq for sure.
Mmmmmm. That would be so good in thumbprint or Linzer cookies! 💖💕
I had purchased an abundance of lemons reduced in price for a quick sale and I ended up I made some lemon curd for the first time I turned out really good
Would be great on baked trout!

“Get out of the jar! Get out of the jar!” Your hubs is my spirit animal lol!
OMG I love anything Lemon but never thought of making lemon jelly. Thanks for sharing.
Love the POP too! It’s better than applause.

I love Lemon Everything! Going on my To Can list! Cannot wait to try! Thank You Leisa! Hi to Phil! XOXO Lisa
I have a lemon addiction I swear lol
This would be so good with pasta or even a sauce over lobster ravioli !!!!!!
Very nice! Been canning over 20 half pints of lemon jelly also tried my hand at orange and grapefruit but lemon Is the clear winner
I have a huge lemon tree. I've been juicing and throwing them in ice cube trays. We go around the block with bags and bags of lemons giving them away to neighbors. I think I'll try this instead, and give them a really nice upgraded surprise! Thanks Leisa!
Dang! I wish I was your neighbor! lol
@@Imjetta7 HAHA!!!!

Would be great over a pound cake
I would love this! I love lemon anything!!!!
I've never heard of lemon jam before. I guess it's similar to our orange marmalade. I think it would make a great filling for a lemon drizzle cake with lemon icing on top.
I want all of that, it sounds divine.

Phil is kind of adorable!😉
OMG I've got to get my hands on lemons to make this!!!
My Meyers trees are looking loaded. Thanks for the idea!
Love lemon anything. Thank-you for sharing this with us today. Have a wonderful evening. Stay safe and take care.
I tie my cheese cloth either on my pot handles like a sling suspended inside my pot or on my lid handle, then flip my lid inside out and hang the cloth inside my pot from the lid.
They are sunshine in a jar I love lemons
I love lemon!! Haven't had a lemon drop in forever. I can't wait to make this!!! Drooling and puckering through the whole video!!
Jelly-n is my new love. Can not wait to make this. I think this would probably be a perfect summer breakfast, oh yea!
Omg! Lemons are my favorite!!!!🤗😋

Next time I make this I think I will try it in some doughnuts!
put them lemon seeds in a big flower pot with miracle grow and you will have your own lemon tree :-)
This looks amazing
Love this Leisa! We are lemon heads and will be trying this for sure. Thanks.
Leisa, such a gorgeous color and it’s probably delicious. Lemon jelly is hard to find, but I love to make tarts and I bet Thad would taste great. 👍👍🌹🌹❤️
Looks delish! Love sweet lemon things.
Absolutely loving your whisk. Please share the make, model, and where you got it?
I have a whole bunch of Meyer lemons on my tree...don’t you know I’ll be making this jelly as soon as possible!
Ohhh yummmmm!! Your kitchen must have smelled soooo good...

That looks so great. I shall have ago at making this. Thanks fir sharing👍😎
That looks so delish!
I too was gifted lemons now I’m going to try this.
Yay! Was waiting sooo long for this one!
I love lemon drops so I know I will like this. As I do with any recipe that is new to me my mind immediately goes to trying variations. Maybe make orange or Satsuma.

This is so delicious. I ended up with 6 quarter pints and I don't want to share.
My question is after all that work of removing all the pith, why would you want to strain it? I understand getting rid of the peels.
Sounds great! Love lemon anyway.
I will have to try this Lisa , I know Phil loved it😊
Looks so pretty!

The ball book said 10, that's what I went with.
Depends on altitude
Can't wait to try this!!
Making this today
Wonder how would be in dressing for fruit salad? Just bought that canning book!! Thanks for bringing it up might have never seen it!! God bless and stay safe!! Janell

I am thinking thumb print cookies, inside a powdered jelly donut.
How much strained lemon juice? Thanks.

Cretia Laisure I love marmalade so if (when...I love lemon drops!!) I plan on leaving some of the peel in.
Yum!
I love that whisk. Do you have a link?
Beautiful!!!🤗
Mmmm sounds delicious 😋
Will definitely make this!!
Would be good on salmon.
Wonder if I can do this with limes. I have a lime tree in my yard.
Yes you can!
A tip for ya book, put a clothes peg or a bullnose clippy on there, that'll show 'em who's boss!
You can buy several lemons at the store so can you double this recipe? Also can you add some of the zest in with it?
Yes, you CAN add zest!
Where did you get the awesome whisk!
I save and freeze until enough for marmalade
Hey, I'm Laura and I find myself looking every day for your videos. Im retired and prep. Love canning and preserving. I love this idea. I don't have the lemons but will be buying some soon. Im looking to can different types of fruit lemonades. too
I will be trying this then I think I will try it with oranges. Love the taste of oranges but don't like marmalade. I like anything lemon too.
Marybeth, lemon marmalade is very good too...unless it's the texture of marmalade you don't like. My very favorite though is grapefruit, orange and lemon marmalade.
@@margaretbedwell58 It is the texture of the marmalade. I prefer jam or jelly.
@@marybethsmith6458 Oh...Ok. I like it all (unfortunately)
Let the man eat!!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Hahahaha!
You didn’t mention how long they stay in the water bath?
10 minutes
Can u use an apple peeler to peel these lemons???? Should work
That’s how I peel mine. Works great. No pith with the peel at all.
lovely recipe for jelly.
I would not use bottled lemon juice. All together different :/ taste.
I have a Hugh lemon tree, two crops a year and I make lots of marmalades and fig jam (fig tree too).

Peth is were pectin is. Peth is what use to commercial pectin
Pith
Yum that looks sooo good, but why peel the lemon?
I am assuming that it's because of the additional lemon flavor.
I would think more flavor maybe
what size is that cute baby jar and what brand?
How long did you process it for? It looks delicious
It's usually 10 minutes for jelly/jam.
I want that whisk!!
Can you wash and reuse the strainer bags?
Yes
