Add to Shopping List

Instructions

  1. In a large stainless steel or enamel pot, combine diced peppers, sugar and vinegar
  2. Over high heat, bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and boil for one full minute
  3. Stir in liquid pectin, bring back to a boil, and boil hard for one full minute.
  4. Remove from heat and ladle into hot, sterilized jars.
  5. Put on lids and twist screw bands just finger tight
  6. Process in boiling water bath 10 minutes
  7. Allow to cool, in which time you should hear the pop of the sealing jars, and your jelly will thicken

Notes

  • If you prefer a spicy pepper jelly, use hot peppers, or a combination of sweet and hot depending on your desired spice level. This recipe will make about half a dozen 4 oz, or three 8 oz, (or ½ pint)  jars
  • It's important to sterilize your jars: Wash them in hot, soapy water, rinse well, and then boil for 10 minutes.
  • Keep the water that you sterilized your jars in boiling so that you can process your filled jars in it.
  • The diced peppers in your jelly will float to the top of the jars. To keep this from happening and suspend them throughout the jelly, turn the jars upside down and then upright a few times during the cooling time. As the jelly cools and gels, the particles will stay suspended.
