2 lb. fresh cranberries
4 c. boiling water
4 c. sugar

Wash cranberries, pick through and discard any that are firm. Put into large pan with boiling water. As soon as water comes to a boil again, lower heat and cover, tipping lid so steam can escape. Cook very slowly for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Mash berries and add sugar. Bring mixture to a quick boil, boil for 4-5 minutes. Rinse a 6 cup mold in cold water and fill with jelly. Chill, unmolded to serve. Can be put in jars. Makes 3 pints.
