The whole family loves jelly desserts. And now there are a lot of sweet cherries in the garden, so you definitely need to make cherry jelly! This recipe is very clear, all proportions are convenient for conversion. And the description is detailed, I love such recipes, even a beginner can handle this) By the way, I shared it with my friend, who had never made jelly and she succeeded! Well, I got six glasses of excellent dense jelly with pieces of fresh ripe cherries. I used a variety of cherries crossed with black cherries, so the dessert turned out sweet, juicy and bright. The jelly itself is a bit like chewing marmalade, which children are incredibly happy about)

My jelly was very rich, so it’s hard to see in the photo what a wonderful ruby ​​color it has. It's easy to do. I’m always surprised to see people buying dry jelly concentrate, because it contains nothing except sugar and dyes. Thanks for the recipe, Maria. It’s great when a dessert is not only beautiful and tasty, but also healthy.
