3 pounds sour cherries fully ripe (4 cups prepared fruit)
7 cups sugar
1 6-ounce bottle liquid pectin
2 to 3 drops almond extract (optional)
Wash, stem, and pit cherries. Chop fine in food processor or blender. Measure fruit into very large saucepan; add sugar and mix well. Place over high heat; bring to full rolling boil; boil hard 1 minute. Remove from heat; immediately stir in pectin. Skim off foam with ametal spoon; continue to stir and skim for 5 minutes. This will cool the mixture slightly and will help to prevent floating fruit. Add optional almond extract. Ladle at once into hot, sterilized jelly jars. Cover with 1/8 -inch paraffin or seal with appropriate canning lids for storage or gift giving following manufacturer's instructions.
