Ingredients
- 1/2 pound ghost peppers chopped (about 20-30 ghost peppers)
- 4 cups granulated sugar
- 1 1/4 cups cider vinegar
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 ounces liquid fruit pectin
- 4 drops red food coloring if preferred - NOTE: I didn't use any for this recipe.
Instructions
- Finely chop the ghost peppers and add them to a large pan.
- Add sugar, vinegar, lime juice, and salt.
- Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Strain out the ghost peppers and return the mixture to the pan.
- Return heat to high and bring liquid to a boil. Stir in pectin and boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
- If using food coloring, add it now and stir.
- Ladle the hot liquid into clean jars and screw on the lids.
- Cool overnight in the refrigerator. The mixture will solidify into jelly.
Notes
- Makes 4 8-ounce jars.
- Heat Factor: HOT. Ghost peppers have a great amount of heat, even though you're straining them out. Keep the ghost peppers in the mix for a ghost pepper jam.
