Name: Violet Jelly
Brand: DeMoss
Place of Purchase: DeMoss Pumpkin Farm in Ames, Iowa
Country/Region of Origin: Ames, Iowa
Price in Iowa: $5.00 for 6-oz
Description: Bright purple , clear jelly.
Flavor: It tastes like citrus, apples and sweet cherry.
Aroma: Floral and citrus.
Texture/Mouth-feel: It's jelly. Not terrible sticky, though. Which is kind of nice.
Notes: The farmers' markets are open now. Not only can I stock up on my supply of sweet pepper relish, but there are more opportunities for exotic local fruits and preserves. This violet jelly was an interesting treat. I think that, like the geranium jelly from last month, this violet jelly is probably better with something savory. But I could see adorning appetizers or petite fours with this amethyst-colored preserve.
