Ingredients
- 1 green bell pepper
- 12 jalapeno pepper
- 1 1/2 cups apple cider vinegar
- 1 pinch salt
- 4 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 4 ounces pectin liquid
- 4 jalapeno pepper seeded and finely chopped
Instructions
- Combine the green bell pepper and 12 jalapeno peppers in the container of a food processor or blender.
- Process until finely chopped. This can be done in batches, if the peppers do not fit.
- Transfer the peppers to a large saucepan, and stir in the cider vinegar.
- Bring to a boil, and let simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Strain the mixture through at least 2 layers of cheesecloth, and discard pulp. You should have about 1 cup of liquid.
- Return the liquid to the saucepan, and stir in the salt and sugar until dissolved. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. When the mixture comes to a rolling boil (one that cannot be stirred down), boil for 1 minute, then stir in the liquid pectin.
- Stir in the remaining chopped jalapeno peppers, and ladle into sterile jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
- Let the jars cool completely before securing lids and storing in the refrigerator or freezer.
- Optional: You can also seal jars in a hot water bath. There are instructions in this post, below the recipe card. Refrigerate jelly after seal is broken.
