Hypoglycemia (Low Blood Glucose) Hypoglycemia is a condition characterized by abnormally low blood glucose (blood sugar) levels, usually less than 70 mg/dl. However, it is important to talk to your health care provider about your individual blood glucose targets, and what level is too low for you.
1 Bring to a boil and boil rapidly without stirring until candy thermometer reaches 220Â°F. (This temperature ensures that there is enough sugar for the pectin to form a gel.). 2  Remove from heat and skim off any scum that has formed on top of jelly. 3  Pour into sterilized jars.
Drop a little of the candy into cold water to cool. If the candy forms a liquid thread that does not ball up, it is in the thread stage. This stage produces a type of sugar syrup but it is not yet candy. When your candy is in the thread stage, expect the temperature to be around 230 to 235 Fahrenheit. Drop some candy into cold water. If the candy forms a soft, flexible ball it is at a temperature of 235-240 degrees Fahrenheit or at the soft ball stage.
