Candied Jalapenos - Cowboy Candy Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by JimMac

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 pounds fresh jalepeno peppers, sliced
2 pounds onions, diced
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup water
6 to 8 cups sugar
2 tablespoons mustard seed
1 teaspoon turmeric
2 teaspoon celery seed (optional)
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ginger

Steps:

  • Slice Jalapenos into thin slices and dice onions. (Wear a pair of rubber gloves for handling jalapenos, personal experience, do not touch your face!) Place in pan with water and vinegar, bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer about 10 minutes or until tender. (Do not breath fumes.) Add the sugar and spices and bring to soft candy temperature to completely dissolve sugar, about another 10 minutes. Place boiling mixture into jars, leaving 1/4 inch head space. Adjust caps. Seal in a canner, or store in your refrigerator. Best to let them sit in the jars at least two weeks to soak up all of the goodness.
