Hot Pepper Jelly
Ingredients:
3 to 4 hot peppers, jalapenos or other green ones, seeded
1 medium mild green pepper, seeded ( I am pretty loose about this, if I have a bell pepper that is fine, but another mild chili is ok too)
6 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups white vinegar
2 (3oz) pouches of liquid Pectin
7 half pint jars
In a food processor combine half the peppers and 1/2 cup of the vinegar, puree. Add this to the sugar in a large pot and then repeat with the other half the peppers. Add the last 1/2 cup of vinegar.
Bring to a rolling boil. I like to do this step slowly, I feel that it helps the jelly be clear (but I might imagine that)
Add pectin, boil for one minute
Remove from heat, skim off foam.
Fill jars, process for 10 minutes.
If you have a lot of jalapenos only do one batch at a time, when we tried to do multiple at once they did not end of very clear.
