Ingredients for Strawberry Jalapeno Jelly
- 2 cups Strawberries:chopped in food processor or blender
- 1 Bell Pepper:Green, Red, orange, or yellow bell peppers, finely chopped. I cut up pieces of red, orange and yellow to make about one bell pepper to add more color
- 1 cup Hot Peppers:Use peppers of your choice, finally chopped. I used about 4 to 5 jalapenos
- 1 cup Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1 package Powdered Pectin
- 5 cups White Sugar
Detailed Steps to Make Strawberry Jalapeno Jelly
First step is to rinse the strawberries and remove the stem.
Finely chop the strawberries and peppers in a food processor. If you touch the inside of the hot peppers, wear gloves. Thisjalapeno corerworks great! Add all of the chopped ingredients to a large pot.
Add the vinegar and pectin to the pot, stir well, heat on high heat and bring to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly.
Add the 5 cups of sugar. I usually measure the 5 cups of sugar into a bowl and have it ready to add. Stir well, bring back to a full boil and boil for 1 minute.
Remove from heat and skim off foam. Ladle the hot jelly into jars, using a canning funnel. Leave a 1/4 inch headspace.
Wipe the rim of the jar with a damp rag, remove the air bubbles and add the lids. Add the canning jars to the boiling water bath and process jars at a hard boil for 10 minutes. I use theBall electric water bath cannerand love it.
Remove the hot jars from the hot water bath after the processing time with ajar lifterand place jars on a kitchen towel on the counter. Do not disturb for 24 hours.
Enjoy!
