Okay, so I am making grape jelly today... weather is yucky so I am staying in for now... but my question is WHY does the recipe with certo call for 7 cups of sugar and the recipe in the ball blue book without certo calls for only 3. why does the recipe need so much sugar for the pectin formula. why even use the pectin to make the recipe?
