Concord Grape Juice
Ingredients:
grapes, red or green (european type, such as thompson seedless), raw
water, bottled, generic
sugars, granulated
Directions:
Combine the grapes, water, and sugar in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan and bring to a slow boil, then simmer until the grapes have broken down, about 1 hour.
As they cook, gently mash the grapes with a slotted spoon to help them release their juices.
Your kitchen will begin to smell like grape-flavored bubble gum: this is a good sign.
Once the grapes have surrendered most of their juices and begun to look more like raisins, remove from the heat.
Using tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the grape carcasses and transfer to a fine-mesh sieve set over a large bowl.
Pour the juice over the grapes and press down on them to get every last bit of juice out of them.
(We compost the remaining skins, seeds, and stems.)
Use the grape juice right away, or store it in an airtight container in your fridge for up to 1 week or in your freezer for up to 1 year.
