Recipe Summary Homemade Jalapeno Pepper Jelly

Jalapeno and bell peppers make up this tangy green jelly that is traditionally served on crackers with cream cheese.

Ingredients | Blancmange Jelly

3 green bell peppers, seeded and finely chopped

2 (4 ounce) cans diced green chile peppers, drained

1 ½ cups distilled white vinegar

6 ½ cups white sugar

½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (Optional)

1 (6 fluid ounce) container liquid fruit pectin

5 drops green food coloring (Optional)

Directions

Combine the bell peppers, chile peppers, vinegar, sugar, and cayenne pepper in a large pot. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently. When the mixture comes to a rolling boil that cannot be stirred down, stir in the pectin. Cook for 5 more minutes at a boil, then remove from the heat. Stir in the green food coloring, if desired.

Ladle jelly into hot sterile jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Process jars in a boiling water bath for 5 to 10 minutes to ensure a good seal.
