    This is red pepper jelly I made today. I had to make a double batch. The first batch was so hot we couldn't eat it. I couldn't believe my DH couldn't eat it. He eats jalapenos with everything.

    Make General Tso's chicken with it. Cook Tempura chix and when done drop a few Tbsp jelly to a skillet to heat it up then add chix and toss.
    Oh Man!!! Now I'm hungry for that... :-(

    2 med green peppers

    2 med red peppers (I use all the same color, I found if I don't the jelly is muddy looking)

    10 large jalapeno ( I use a small amount of red food coloring for the red, green when I think of it)

    4 c sugar

    1 box pectin

    1/2 c water

    1/2 c cider vinegar





    Protect hands with rubber gloves (very important) while preparing jalapenos. Stem, half all peppers. I use half of the seeds. Finely chopped all peppers

    I use my food processor.



    I mix the box of pectin with a little sugar. Bring peppers, water vinegar pectin/sugar mixture. Bring to a boil you can't stir down. Add remaining sugar bring to rolling boil you can't stir down and stir ONE minute. I put the jelly in hot jars I've kept hot in the oven. You know the rest.

    We love Jalapeno jelly, the hotter the better. On an onion bagel, cream cheese, and jalapeno jelly you can't get any closer to heaven than that. We wait until they are red and then make red jelly without food coloring.
