Clementine Pepper Jelly
Report
Fabulous for appetizers, glazes and gifts. Oh, and it's insanely delicious on warm biscuits with butter!

Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cup fresh clementine juice from about 8-10 medium clementines
- ¾ cup rice vinegar
- 4 cups sugar
- 1 jalapeño pepper halved seeds removed
- ½ teaspoon butter
- 1 3- ounce CERTO Fruit Pectin pouch
- 1-2 teaspoons Chili garlic sauce
Instructions
- Combine clementine juice, rice vinegar, sugar, jalapeño and butter in a medium-large saucepan (at least 6-quart size). Stir and bring to a boil. Reduce to a steady simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Watch carefully to keep the mixture from boiling up over the top of the pot.
- Add Certo pectin and stir constantly for exactly one minute. Remove from heat and skim off any foam with a metal teaspoon. Remove jalapeno and add one teaspoon Chili Garlic Sauce. Taste (be careful, it's hot!) and add more, to taste. Ladle into clean jars, leaving ½ inch headspace at the top. Cover jars and allow to sit at room temperature for 24 hours then refrigerate for up to 3 weeks or store in the freezer for up to 6 months. Makes about 4½ cups of jelly or 9 4-ounce jars.
- Jelly can also be processed with a water bath at this point. I never do this as I'm a bit lazy and have plenty of freezer space. If you do go with the water bath method, you should switch the vinegar to regular white vinegar or another vinegar with at least 5% acidity. Rice vinegar is typically between 4% and 4.3% and is not acidic enough for canning.
