Directions

Toss the rose petals, lemon juice, and 1 cup sugar together in a bowl until the petals are evenly coated. Let stand at room temperature overnight.
Bring the water to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in the rose petal mixture and reserved 1 cup of sugar; stir until the sugar has dissolved. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and simmer 20 minutes. Increase the heat to medium-high, and return the mixture to a boil for 5 minutes. Stir in the pectin, and boil for 1 minute.
Pour the jam into 4 sterilized half-pint jars. Seal with rings and lids, and store in a cool dark place.

I love the idea of this jam, but could not make it by following this recipe. There is no indication what kind of pectin to use. BALL pectin will not work with these instructions. I tried it. Different brands of pectin CANNOT be substituted for each other. Pectins from different companies act very differently.
