Grape Conserve

Ingredients

• 1/2 peck grapes
• 2 oranges, juice and rind
• 2 lemons, juice and rind
• 1 cupful chopped nuts
• sugar
• 1/2 teaspoonful salt

Instructions

Wash the fruit. Remove the grapes from the stems; remove the skins from the pulp. Cook the pulp until soft; strain, to remove the seeds. Place the strained pulp and skins in a preserving kettle. Extract the juice from the oranges and lemons, then put the rinds through a food-chopper. Add the lemon and orange juice and rind to the grape mixture and cook for 1 hour. Measure the mixture. Then add an equal quantity of sugar and the nuts and salt. Continue cooking until thick (see Jams). Pour into sterilized glasses. When cool, seal and cover as directed for Jams.
