Stir in 5 cups sugar and return to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with a spoon.", "Immediately ladle the mixture into prepared jars, filling to 1/8\" below the tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with the 2 piece lids (the bands and the flat top) and screw the lids on tightly. Place jars in canner/stockpot. Make sure to cover jars with water at least 1-2 inches over the tops (add boiling water if necessary). Cover and bring to a gentle boil. Process 5 minutes.""
