POMEGRANATE JEWELS

(THIS IS A RECIPE TO CELEBRATE WITH FOR NATIONAL POMEGRANATE MONTH! (NOVEMBER)

1/2 ounce unflavored gelatin (2 envelopes)
2/3 cup pomegranate juice (Bought in a grocery store or squeezed from the pomegranate seeds)
4 tbsp. sugar
4 tbsp. corn syrup
1/2 tsp. lemon juice
granulated sugar for rolling
pomegranate seeds (optional, for decoration)

Lightly wet a pan. ( 8x8 square) Stir the gelatin with 4 tbsp. water in a small bowl; let soften.
Combine the pomegranate juice, sugar, and corn syrup in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil and stir in gelatin, stirring until gelatin dissolves. Pour hot jelly into prepared pan and allow to cool and set overnight in refrigerator.
Once jelly is set, it can be cut with a wet knife or cookie cutters. Finished jellies can be rolled in granulated sugar or left plain.
Serving Suggestion: These candies are beautiful when stacked and layered on top of each other. Try alternating sugared and plain candies, and try topping them with pomegranate seeds.
