Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 can(s) crushed pineapple 20 oz can in 100% juice
10 medium jalapeno's peppers fresh ( i use 5 green and 5 of the red ones for color)
3 medium habanero pepper, fresh
1 c apple cider vinegar
6 c sugar
1 pkg liquid fruit pectin 6oz (both pouches)

Steps:

  • 1. Sterilize and prepare pint canning jars and lids as directed.
  • 2. Cut stems off of Jalapeno's. (Be sure to wear plastic gloves.) Cut the Jalapeno's in thirds or quarters. Put cut up Jalapeno's in food processor.
  • 3. Cut stems off of Habanero peppers and remove seeds. (Be sure to wear plastic gloves. Habanero peppers can burn your skin) Add to food processor. Chop into small pieces.
  • 4. In a heavy 6 quart pan add 6 cups sugar and 1 cup apple cider vinegar, and the 20 oz can of crushed pineapple in juice to pan. Stir over med heat until sugar is dissolved.
  • 5. Once sugar is dissolved add Pepper mixture. Bring to a rolling boil that you can not stir down for 10 minutes
  • 6. Turn off heat and let cool for ten minutes.
  • 7. Add 6oz or two pouches of the liquid pectin. Bring back up to a rolling boil for 5 minutes. Turn off heat.
  • 8. Ladle into jars. I use the hot water bath process. Some people just put the lids turn the jars upside down and the lids seal either way.
  • 9. t takes about 24 hours for the spread to finish thickening. Not quite as thick as your standard jelly.
  • 10. Be creative, this has so many versatile uses.
