Jalapeño Raspberry Pepper Jelly

Ingredients

• 2 cups bell peppers (red, green or both)
• 1 cup raspberries
• 1 or 2 fresh jalapeño peppers
• 6 cups granulated sugar
• 1 1/2 cups vinegar (5%)
• 2 or 3 pouches liquid pectin
• Few drops red or green food coloring (optional)

Instructions

1. Grind or chop the bell peppers and jalapeños. When handling the jalapeños, USE GLOVES to avoid burns. (I use a food processor.)
2. Combine with sugar and vinegar. Bring to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and let stand 15 minutes.
3. Bring to a boil again for 2 minutes.
4. Add pectin and bring to a rolling boil. Remove from heat and stir for 5 minutes.
5. Add coloring, if desired. Pour into hot jelly jars and seal with lids.
6. Store in a cool dark place.

Notes

Jelly may take up to 3 to 4 weeks to set.
