Waste not! A bit unusual but it's fun to find uses for things you might otherwise toss out to the compost bin...
CORN COB JELLY
12 sweet corn cobs 4 c. water 4 c. sugar
l box fruit pectin
Bring water with cobs, to a boil; boil for l0 mins. Measure 3 c. liquid & strain through a cheesecloth. Put strained fluid into a large saucepan, add pectin. Bring to rolling boil. Add sugar; bring mixture back to a boil. Simmer for 3 mins., then skim. Add food coloring, if desired. Pour into scalded jars & seal. Jelly will be clear & taste like apple-honey.

I can remember to dry the silk and make tea, but never remember to save the cobs for anything... What else can we do with those cobs anyway?? Wonder how many uses they have???
