Concord Grape Conserve
 
3 cups grape pulp (see below)
2-1/2 cups sugar
1 cup thinly sliced oranges, cut in 1/2" pieces
1/3 cup thinly sliced lemons, cut in 1/2" pieces
1/2 c seedless raisins
1 tsp ground allspice
1-1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground clove

Combine the above in a microwave-proof bowl with plenty of head
room to prevent it from boiling over. Cook on high power for 20
minutes and then stir. Then cook on medium power for 10-15 minutes
until it passes the jelly test.

Place in sterilized jars and cover with paraffin to seal. Or place
in jars and store in the freezer until ready for use.

Grape pulp: place washed, stemmed grapes in a large saucepan, adding
about 1/4 cup water. Cook covered on medium until the skins begin
to burst. Cool. Run these through a food mill, removing the skins
and seeds.
