Apricot Jalapeno Jelly image

I love the jalapeno-fruit recipes to have at home and to give as gifts. With a nice wheat cracker, a little cream cheese and dollop of the jelly you have a nice snack or appetizer. The 'heat' from the jalapenos depends on how many of the seeds you leave in the jelly. A friend likes this on hotcakes, and we also like the jelly on biscuits.Try this, it will surprise you!

Time 20m

Yield 7 half pints

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup fresh jalapeno pepper, stemmed, seeded, and cut up
1 large red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and cut up
2 cups apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 cups dried apricots, chopped
6 cups granulated sugar
1 (3 ounce) package liquid pectin

Steps:

  • Place the jalapenos, pepper and vinegar in a blender (or food processor).
  • Pulse until small chunks remain.
  • Combine apricots, sugar and the pepper/vinegar mixture in a large saucepan.
  • Bring to a boil; boil rapidly for 5 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat; skim off any foam that forms.
  • Allow mixture to cool for 2 minutes.
  • Mix in the pectin.
  • Pour into sterilized jars, seal and cool.
  • (At this point I turn the sealed jars over several times as they cool for about 10 minutes at a time to keep the fruit nicely distributed in the jar).
  • * Note; It is an excellent idea to wear rubber gloves when working with hot peppers, they otherwise may make the hands burn. And don't rub your eyes!

This jelly is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my jelly turned out too runny. I think I might have overcooked it.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but this jelly is surprisingly mild. The apricot flavor really shines through.

This jelly is a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be great on a cheeseboard with some crackers and fruit.

I used this jelly to glaze some grilled chicken and it was amazing! The jelly caramelized beautifully and gave the chicken a wonderful flavor.

This apricot jalapeno jelly is a delightful blend of sweet, spicy, and tangy flavors. It's the perfect addition to a cheeseboard or charcuterie platter, and it also makes a great glaze for chicken or fish.
