Ok so i made some apple jelly from the ball website. Instead of a thicker (think store bought) harder jelly, it's more soft set. It's spreadable and nice. But my question is, did I mess up or is this safe to consume?

    Still safe! Pectin set isn’t required for safety, it’s just a quality issue. Personally I prefer my jams/ jellies to have a softer set anyway!

    Still safe! I’ve actually made syrups using jelly recipes before, and just purposefully didn’t let them set.

    I like to use softer jellies as glazes for meats. I’d use the HELL out of this for pork chops.
