JALAPENO-LIME-GARLIC JELLY

Steps:

• Sterilize 8 - 8 oz jelly jars and lids.
• Wash and prepare the peppers: destem, de-membrane and deseed if you don't want a very hot tasting jelly.
• In a mini food processor pulse 2/3 of the peppers, and garlic along with all of the juice and zest of the limes.
• The other 1/3 garlic and peppers slice paper thin using a mandolin. (If you don't care about having some pretty sliced garlic and peppers in your jars just add it all to the food processor and skip this step).
• In a heavy pot bring sugar and vinegar to a boil and then add the jalapeno and garlic-lime mixtures. Stirring constantly untill all the sugar is dissolved and continue cooking for 10 minutes, still stirring.
• Stir in the pectin and boil for 1 minute, stir well and then remove from the heat.
• Fill the jars to within 1/4" from the top, wipe the tops and rims clear of any spills and place lids on, and tighten.
• Should set within 24 hours and then they're ready to be enjoyed.
