Jalapeño Jelly
This Jalapeño Jelly combines chopped jalapeños, bell pepper, Fresno chiles, and green apple cooked with vinegar and sugar to create a sweet and spicy preserve. It offers a balanced heat with fruity undertones thanks to the inclusion of apple and bell pepper. The jelly is cooked until thickened, allowing it to hold shape when chilled, making it ideal for spreading or glazing.

Notes
- Removing seeds and membranes from the chile peppers lowers the spiciness for a milder jelly.
- This recipe yields six 4-ounce jars, suitable for sharing or gifting.
- Keep the jelly refrigerated in an airtight container, consuming within one month.
- For longer storage, freeze the jelly up to six months but leave headspace in jars for expansion.
