Blackcurrant and gooseberry jelly for the winter

Blackcurrant and gooseberry jelly has a good sweet and sour taste and useful properties. These berries ripen at the same time, which is very convenient for making such a dessert from them. For high-quality jelly, the correct choice of berries is important, because their color does not always correspond to maturity. The berries should be ripe, but not too hard or soft. In this recipe, you are encouraged to prepare the jelly "raw" option. It is prepared from currant and gooseberry juice. The calculation of the juice is as follows: from 1 kg of black currant - 500-600 ml of juice, from 1 kg of gooseberries - 400 ml of juice.

If the consistency of the jelly is not dense enough, depending on the variety of berries, add a little sugar to it and heat it so that the sugar dissolves, just do not bring it to a boil.

The finished jelly should drain slowly from the spoon and the drop of jelly should not spread on the saucer. Divide the jelly into dry sterile jars and seal tightly with lids.
