Re: A little bit of everything


Hi, Cathy. This is from "Florida's Incredible Wild Edibles" by R.J. Deuerling and P.S. Lantz, and published by the Florida Native Plant Society.

1-1/2 quarts washed beauty berries [might take half a lifetime to collect that many]
3 quarts water
Boil 20 minutes and strain to make infusion.
Use 3 cups infusion, bring to boil, add 1 envelope Sure-Jell and 4-1/2 cups sugar. Bring to second boil and boil for 2 minutes. Remove from burner and allow to stand until foam forms. Skim off foam. Pour into sterilized jars and seal.

Chris, the purple berries of Calllicarpa americana are used to make jelly. I've got a recipe around here somewhere.
