PEPPER JELLY



Pepper Jelly image

I love pepper jelly. This recipe is a mix of sweet and heat. My favorite way to use it is: Pour some pepper jelly over a block of cream cheese and serve with crackers. You can't get any easier than that for an appetizer and it has always been a crowd pleaser. I like to have both items on hand, just in case I have unexpected guests. This recipe makes 3 cups of pepper jelly and it will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 months. It also makes a great hostess or neighborly gift!

DR PEPPER BBQ SAUCE



Dr Pepper BBQ Sauce image

My family is stationed in Italy with my husband, Lieutenant William Robert Blackman. William grew up in Memphis, Tennessee, and I'm from Texas, so the dish that spells "home" for us is a good ol' barbecue. I have my own recipe for barbecue sauce that we like to pour all over sliced brisket. Eating it reminds us of weekend barbecues with our families. -Tina Blackman, Naples, Italy

Tips and Tricks for Making Dr. Pepper Jelly:

- Use a variety of peppers. Combining different types of peppers, such as jalapeños, serranos, and habaneros, adds depth and complexity of flavor. - Roast the peppers before using. Roasting the peppers enhances their sweetness and smokiness. - Use fresh Dr. Pepper. Fresh Dr. Pepper provides the best flavor, so avoid using flat or old soda. - Cook the jelly to the right consistency. The jelly should reach a temperature of 220°F (105°C) and have a thick, spreadable consistency. - Let the jelly cool completely before storing. This allows the flavors to meld and the jelly to set properly. - Store the jelly in a cool, dark place. The jelly can be stored in jars or containers for up to a year.

Conclusion:

With its unique blend of sweet, spicy, and tangy flavors, Dr. Pepper jelly is a versatile condiment that can be used in various ways. Whether you enjoy it as a spread on sandwiches or crackers, a glaze for meats, or an ingredient in sauces and marinades, Dr. Pepper jelly adds a delightful kick to any dish.
