Wash and halve the crab apples and put them in a pan with 1.25 litres of water
Boil it until fruit is soft. Strain through jelly bag. I strain it through sieve first.
Measure the juice obtained. Don't try to rush it as if residue goes through the jelly will be cloudy.
Measure amount of liquid as you will need to know to add the right amount of sugar: -800grams of sugar per litre of juice
Add also six cloves and two tablespoonful of lemon juice per litre of juice. Return to hob and bring to the boil.
Boil until it reaches set point.
Pot and cover.
Heat treating may be advisable.
