Canned Grapes

Canned grapes give excellent flavour, the juice resulting after standing some weeks being, if properly made, like a sweet wine. Wash and cut grapes from the bunch leaving a bit of stem on each. Make a syrup with a quart of water to each pound of sugar. Place the fruit in heated jars in an outer vessel of cold water and let heat gradually. Fill nearly full with the syrup and let cook ten minutes; add more syrup and seal immediately. (White grapes or seedless grapes are very delicate prepared this way or in grape juice.)
