1/4 cup 36g / 1.3ozHot peppers - seeded and roughly chopped

Recipe Instructions

Mince the peppers together very fine (or use a blender or food processor). You can leave them coarse if you like a chunkier jelly.

Mix with the sugar and cider vinegar in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Let boil down uncovered until thick like corn syrup. Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes.

Add the Certo and stir thoroughly, then stir in a few drops of food coloring.

Pack while hot in sterilized jars (baby food jars make excellent containers for this) and seal.

Makes 3 to 4 pints.
