JALAPEñO JELLY

Steps:

• Prepare boiling water canner. Heat jars in simmering water until ready to use. Do not boil. Wash lids in warm soapy water and set bands aside.
• While wearing latex gloves, cut stems from fresh jalapeños, then cut peppers in half. Remove the seeds from the jalapeños for a less spicy jelly (Helpful hint: Run a teaspoon along the inside of each cut jalapeno to remove the seeds), or leave the seeds in if you'd like very spicy jelly.
• Coarsely cut peppers, then place in a food processor or blender with 1 cup of vinegar. Puree until smooth. Do not strain.
• Pour pureed jalapeño mixture into a medium pot along with the remaining 1 cup vinegar and all of the sugar.
• Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. (Be very careful here, this mixture WILL foam up and over the top unless you are careful.) Just as it starts to come to a boil, lower heat and with a ladle, skim off any foam. Then, increase the temperature under the pot to a point where it will gently boil, but not rise up and over the top.
• Boil for 10 minutes then while whisking, add one pectin pouch and boil hard for an additional minute. Remove from heat, skimming any additional foam if necessary.
• We chose not to add the optional green food coloring to our jelly. But if you'd like your jelly to be a darker green, add one or two drops and stir to combine.
• Ladle hot jelly into hot jars leaving ¼ inch headspace. Wipe rim. Center lid on jar. Apply band until fit is fingertip tight.
• Process in a boiling water canner for 10 minutes, adjusting for altitude. Remove jars and cool. Check lids for seal after 24 hours. Lid should not flex up and down when pressed in center.

JALAPENO GINGER JELLY

Steps:

• 1. In a large pot of simmering water, sterilize enough preserve jars to hold 48 ounces in water until you are ready to use them.
• 2. Place jalapenos, ginger and 1 cup apple cider vinegar in a blender and blend until VERY fine.
• 3. In large pot, place the mixture plus remaining vinegar and all of the sugar. Mix well and bring to full boil until mixture cannot be stirred down (about 8-12 minutes) and continue boiling for 5 minutes.
• 4. Meanwhile, Place lids and rings in large bowl and pour boiling water over them. Set aside until ready to use.
• 5. Remove jelly mixture from heat and add both pectin packets, blending between each addition. Return to heat and bring back to boil and continue boiling for an additional minute.
• 6. Remove jars from water and place on towel. Using a funnel and large ladle, transfer mixture into jars and fill just to the bottom screw band on the jar. Once all jars are full, wipe the rim of the jars to ensure a good seal. Place lids and rings on jars, tighten fingertip tight.
• 7. Place the jars back into the hot water bath for about 5-10 minutes. Remove and place back on towel, inverted, for 10 minutes. Turn jars right side up.
• 8. NOTES: DO NOT use aluminum pot for cooking jelly. DO NOT over tighten the jar rings or the seal will not take. DO NOT skip wiping the rim, even if you think you did not get any jelly on the rim. Even a tiny bit will cause the jar to not seal. Once you turn the jars upright, you will hear loud popping noises. This is normal and indicated that the jar is sealed.
