Can I 'redo' my jelly?

Post: # 165677Post Penny Lane »

Made some blackberry & apple jelly a couple of days ago but I completely underestimated the setting point so the jelly is still quite runny.
Is it possible to put it back in the pan & boil it up to the correct setting point?

Thank you :flower:

Yep no worries. Just make sure you clean, steralise and reheat your jars again before filling them. No problemo.
