Easy Jalapeno Pepper Jelly Recipes

Steps:

• Mix peppers, sugar, and vinegar in a large nonreactive saucepan.
• Bring to a boil, and boil for 5 minutes.
• Let cool at room temperature for 1 hour.
• Add pectin and optional food coloring.
• Return to heat, and bring to a full rolling boil for 1 minute.
• Pour into hot, sterilized half-pint canning jars to within 1/2" of top.
• Wipe tops of jars.
• Center lids on top of jars, and screw on bands firmly.
• Fill a canning kettle or large pot (with bottom rack) with water, and bring water to a boil.
• Gently lower jars into water.
• Water should cover jars by at least 1".
• Bring water to a full boil.
• Reduce heat to a gentle boil, cover, and process for 5 minutes.
• When processed, carefully remove jars from water using tongs or a jar-lifter.
• Place upside-down on a rack or thick towels, and let cool without moving for 12-24 hours.
• Jars will make popping sounds while cooling if sealed.
• Check seal on each jar by pressing down on lid; if it doesn't push, it's sealed.
• If it does push down, store in refrigerator until used.
• Otherwise store in a cool, dark place.
• Makes about 5-6 half-pint jars. To serve, stir to soften, pour over an 8 oz block of cream cheese, and spread on assorted crackers.
• Or use like any other jelly; it's great for a spicy peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine sugar, apples, vinegar, green pepper, jalapenos and water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes. Strain mixture and return to pan. Stir in food coloring. Bring to a full rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in pectin. Continue to boil 1 minute, stirring constantly. , Remove from heat; skim off foam. Ladle hot mixture into five hot half-pint jars, leaving 1/4-in. headspace. Wipe rims. Center lids on jars; screw on bands until fingertip tight. , Place jars into canner with simmering water, ensuring that they are completely covered with water. Bring to a boil; process for 10 minutes. Remove jars and cool. Serve with cream cheese on crackers.

Steps:

• Wash the jars, lids and bands in hot, soapy water; rinse well. Put the jars in a large pot and cover with water. Boil 10 minutes, then reduce the heat and simmer until ready to use. Meanwhile, put the lids and bands in a separate saucepan of simmering water until ready to use (do not boil). Just before filling, carefully remove the jars from the water with a jar lifter or tongs, shake out the excess water and transfer to a clean kitchen towel.
• Remove the ribs and seeds of the bell peppers and jalapenos. Roughly chop and pulse briefly in a food processor until finely minced. You can also finely mince by hand. Add the peppers to a medium-to-large, heavy bottomed pot set to medium-high heat.
• Add the vinegar and sugar to the pot; stir to combine. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, add powdered pectin. Continue boiling, stirring occasionally, for 1 minute.
• Ladle the mixture into sterilized jars. Set aside to cool before capping and refrigerating. Once cool, cap and refrigerate jars. The jelly will thicken as it cools. Will keep up to 2 months refrigerated.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Sterilize canning jars and set aside.
• Prepare all peppers by seeding and mincing.
• Place peppers in a large saucepan over medium-high heat.
• Add apple cider vinegar and powdered Pectin.
• Bring heat to high and stir constantly until you reach a rolling boil. Remove from heat once you reach a rolling boil.
• Mix in sugar and return to pan to high heat.
• Return to a rolling boil and let boil for 1 minute.
• Fill jars with jelly until it reaches 1/4" from the top of the jar.
• Screw lids on jars and place in a large pot filled with hot water. Be sure jars are completely submerged.
• Heat water with jars over high heat until it reaches a rolling boil, then boil for 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and let jars sit in water until cool.
• Check seals by pressing down on the center of the lid when cool. If the lid pops when pushed, it can be stored at room temperature, otherwise store in the refrigerator.
• Pour jelly over cream cheese and serve with crackers.

Steps:

• 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.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan stir all ingredients together over low heat until the jelly and marmalade are melted and the mixture is blended.
• Cool and chill for a minimum of 8 hours before serving.

Steps:

• Combine the green bell pepper and 12 jalapeno peppers in the container of a food processor or blender. Process until finely chopped. This can be done in batches, if the peppers do not fit.
• Transfer the peppers to a large saucepan, and stir in the cider vinegar. Bring to a boil, and let simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Strain the mixture through at least 2 layers of cheesecloth, and discard pulp. You should have about 1 cup of liquid.
• Return the liquid to the saucepan, and stir in the salt and sugar until dissolved. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. When the mixture comes to a rolling boil (one that cannot be stirred down), boil for one minute, then stir in the liquid pectin.
• Stir in the remaining jalapeno peppers, and ladle into sterile jars leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Seal jars in a hot water bath. Refrigerate jelly after seal is broken.

Steps:

• Prepare boiling water canner. Heat jars in simmering water until ready for use. Do not boil. Wash lids in warm soapy water and set bands aside.
• Purée peppers in food processor or blender with 1 cup (240 ml) cider vinegar until smooth. Do not strain purée.
• Combine purée with remaining 1 cup (240 ml) cider vinegar and sugar. Bring to a boil over high heat. Boil 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add Ball® RealFruit™ Liquid Pectin, immediately squeezing entire contents from pouches. Continue to boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim foam if necessary.
• Ladle hot jalapeño jelly into hot jars leaving ¼ inch (6 mm) headspace. Wipe rim. Center lid on jar. Apply band until fit is fingertip tight.
• Process in a boiling water canner for 10 minutes, adjusting for altitude. Remove jars and cool. Check lids for seal after 24 hours. Lid should not flex up and down when center is pressed.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Sterilize three ½-pint jars and their lids or similarly sized lidded storage containers.
• In a food processor, combine the jalapeños and the bell pepper and process, scraping down the sides as needed, until the peppers are very finely chopped, 15 to 20 seconds. (They will let off quite a bit of liquid; this is okay.)
• Transfer the contents of the food processor to a 4-quart stainless-steel or enameled Dutch oven. Add the sugar and vinegar and bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring continuously. Boil, still stirring, for 3 minutes, then squeeze in the pectin. Return the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring continuously, and cook for 1 minute. Immediately remove from the heat and let rest until the foam has settled, about 1 minute. Skim off and discard any remaining foam.
• Spoon the jelly into the sterilized jars and let cool for 1 hour. Seal the jars and refrigerate until chilled before using. The jelly will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 months and up to 2 years if processed in a hot water bath and kept in a cool, dry place.

Steps:

• Bring boiling-water canner, half-full with water, to simmer. Wash jars and screw bands in hot soapy water; rinse with warm water. Pour boiling water over flat lids in saucepan off the heat. Let stand in hot water until ready to use. Drain well before filling.
• Place peppers in 6- or 8-qt. saucepot. Add vinegar and butter. Stir in sugar. Bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly.
• Stir in pectin. Return to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 min., stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon.
• Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with two-piece lids. Screw bands tightly. Place jars on elevated rack in canner. Lower rack into canner. (Water must cover jars by 1 to 2 inches. Add boiling water, if necessary.) Cover; bring water to gentle boil. Process 10 min. Remove jars and place upright on towel to cool completely. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middles of lids with finger. (If lid springs back, lid is not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.)
