Hot Pepper Jelly

I finally got around to making one batch of  Hot Pepper Jelly. This is a favorite amongst many of our friends and family. So, I will have to make a least one more batch to get us through the year.


The batch yielded eight 1/2 pint jars.

In order to keep the pepper pieces from floating to the top, I keep turning and shaking the jars until the jelly is cooled. It usually takes about two hours to cool down enough to keep the pieces suspended throughout the jelly.

    That looks good. I feel the need for some chilli jelly coming on. Shame I didn't grow any chillis this year. Oh well, there's always next year!

    Pepper jelly looks beautiful! I like your technique of turning and shaking the jars to keep the pepper pieces suspended in mid-jelly.

    Always love the way this looks but believe it or not, i have never tried hot pepper jelly. Big fan of spicy foods and salsa but never bought one of these. It always amazes me what us gardeners have never tried. Enjoy!

    How colorful! I tried pepper jelly for the first time a couple of years ago and was rather skeptical about it until I tasted it with some Brie cheese on a whole wheat cracker. Delish!

    This pepper jelly looks absolutely amazing. Any chance you would share the recipe? I would love to try my hand at making my own rather than buying from the store. Then I can control how hot or sweet it is.
