Prickly Pear Jelly���from Under a Turquoise Sky

This orange fruit matures in August in the Southwest deserts of the United States.

Perhaps an acquired taste???

The worst part���I think���would be removing the spines.

Kudos to fictional Delores Yazzie for mastering this not-so-simple jelly.

Anyone out there ever made this?

I’d love to hear about your process and recipe.
