Ingredients

  • tablespoons rosemary leaves fresh chopped
  • 0.5 ounce gelatin powder unflavored
  • pound rhubarb trimmed
  • 3.3 cups sugar 
  • 1.8 cups water 
  • 0.3 cup white-wine vinegar 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • sieve

Directions

  1. Cut enough rhubarb crosswise into 1/2-inch slices to measure 3 cups. In a 4-quart kettle bring rhubarb, 1 1/2 cups water, sugar, vinegar, and rosemary to a boil and simmer 15 minutes (rhubarb will disintegrate).
  2. While rhubarb is simmering, in a small bowl sprinkle gelatin over remaining 1/4 cup water and let soften 1 minute.
  3. Remove kettle from heat and stir gelatin mixture into rhubarb mixture until gelatin is just dissolved.
  4. Pour mixture through a fine sieve into a large bowl, gently pressing on solids, and discard solids. Skim off any foam and immediately pour jelly into sterilized jars, filling to within 1/8 inch of tops. Wipe rims of jars with a dampened cloth and seal jars with lids. Cool jars completely. Rhubarb rosemary jelly keeps, chilled, 2 months.
