Dandelion Jelly

4 cups yellow parts of dandelion blossoms
3 cups boiling water
4 1/2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 package powdered pectin
1 teaspoon yellow food coloring (optional)

Pull the yellow blossoms apart from the green parts. Get lots and lots of blossoms.. While you are
collecting them, you can freeze what you already have. Make sure there are no green parts since
the green parts have a bitter flavor. More blossoms mean more flavor for the jelly.
