KICKIN' PEPPER JELLY
My very good friend Jody Richards sent me some pepper jelly she had made for Christmas one year and I have been hooked on it ever since. She gave me the recipe so I could make my own. I added some sliced Serrano peppers since we like a little bit of heat, but you could leave those out if you preferred. I thought I had lost this...

Steps:
- 1. Sterilize jars and lids.
- 2. Wash, dry and prepare all your peppers. I use my food processor on pulse for all the peppers except the Serrano peppers, but you can fine dice them by hand.
- 3. To a large pot add all the peppers, vinegar and pectin.
- 4. Bring to a rolling boil stirring all the while. * A rolling boil is when it still boils as you stir it.
- 5. Now quickly add the sugar while stirring. Return to full boil and boil for 1 minute ONLY. Turn off heat.
- 6. Skim the foam off the top.
- 7. Ladle into jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Wipe rim of jar with damp clean cloth or paper towel before placing lid on, then rings. Finger tighten the lids.
- 8. Lower into water bath canner. Make sure water is boiling good. Return to a boil and boil 5 minutes. Remove jars from canner right away. I like to place them on a dish towel and place another towel over them to protect from drafts. After a day or so you can remove the rings.
- 9. This recipe makes 6-7 half pint jars.
