- Wash jars in hot suds and rinse in scalding water. Put jars in a kettle and cover with hot water. Bring water to a boil, covered, and boil jars 15 minutes from the time that steam emerges from the kettle. Turn off heat and let jars stand in hot water.

HOT PEPPER GARLIC JELLY
I have made several different recipes for hot pepper jelly and decided that I had tweaked them all to the point of newness. Here is my interpretation of a good, hot jelly that works well as a glaze on chicken or pork or on top of a brie or over some cream cheese. Heck I have even had it on celery with peanut butter but that's a whole other story. I use a variety of colored peppers for really pretty jelly, yellow, red green, etc. I think habenaros give the best flavor and heat. My instructions are kind of long but I thought the details of canning might be helpful to someone. Wear rubber gloves whenever handling hot peppers or you'll be sorry. Makes a great addition to a gift basket. Hope you enjoy it.

Steps:
- I begin by putting my jars and rings in a big pot of water on the stove and bring to a low boil.
- Leave them boiling slightly till you are ready for them.
- Have your jar flats ready on the counter along with a damp rag to wipe the rims of your jars after filling.
- Put peppers, green pepper, garlic, vinegar and sugar in a large pot and mix well.
- Bring to a boil, stirring often.
- Boil for 5- 6 minutes.
- Remove from heat and add Certo and stir.
- Pour into 1/2 pint jars.
- As soon as you fill a jar wipe the rim, put a flat in the ring and twist onto jar and invert jar on cloth towel to seal (heat from jar, ring and jelly should seal it).
- Leave them on the counter for a while to finish sealing.
- If you notice the peppers settling just give the jar a little shake every once in a while.
- After they have cooled and sealed (you will not be able to push down on the flat at all) you can turn them over and tighten the rings again and you're done!
- **NOTE FROM CHEF** One packet of liquid certo will work just fine, the jelly will "looser". I actually prefer it with one packet myself.
ROASTED GARLIC & ONION JELLY

Number Of Ingredients 9
Steps:
- Cut top off each garlic head and drizzle with olive oil. Roast in a regular conventional oven at 275 degrees for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Cool completely. Caramelize onions: chop onions into small pieces (save half of 1 onion and cut into large slivers; set aside to be used later as a garnish). Place 2/3 cup sugar in a large skillet over medium heat and cook until melted; mix in butter until melted. Add onions and cook until coated by caramelizing mixture (onions should be soft and pierce easily with a fork). Caramelize large slivers and set aside. Add garlic cloves from one head and simmer 5 minutes. Add vinegar and mix while still over medium heat; mix in 4 cups water and simmer 5 more minutes. Sieve mixture through a jellybag or cheesecloth, allowing to drip until all liquid is through. Measure 5 cups of the garlic/onion liquid into a saucepan and add pectin. Bring to a full boil and add all the sugar at once. Cook at full rolling boil, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Remove from heat and ladle mixture into hot, sterilized jars. Garnish top of each jar with a large sliver of caramelized onion and a clove of roasted garlic. Put lids on and process 10 minutes in boiling water bath. Store in a cool, dark place.

JALAPENO-LIME-GARLIC JELLY
This is the ultimate flavor combination. Uses are endless from a topping for cream cheese to a grill sauce for lamb chops or mix well with sour cream for a dip for quesadillas! The pretty green color comes from the zest of the lime, not food coloring. You can make this as spicy as you like by including the pepper's seeds and membranes, or not. The 24 hour cooking time is just the time it takes for the jelly to set up. Enjoy!

ROASTED GARLIC JELLY
This makes a wonderful glaze for meat or a spread or warm bread. The recipe calls for white balsamic vinegar because it will create a light cover jelly. If you are unable to find it make it with the dark balsamic but the jelly will be darker and have a more robust flavor. Remember when making jellies to not squeeze the jelly bag to speed juice collection, doing so may produce a cloudy jelly. This is from the Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving. The recipe is for under 1,000 feet elevation so adjust it for your area.

GARDEN MINT JELLY WITH A HINT OF GARLIC
My mint has gone crazy this year so am trying to save some for the winter months, this was a mixture of several recipes plus a few bits of my own and it is DELICIOUS, even DH who hardly ever comments asked me to make more! I put only a hint of chilli in but feel free to add more if that is to your taste. This would be great with a hot curry I think. This Jelly will be a very dark green colour, just from the mint.

Tips:
- Use fresh garlic: Fresh garlic has a stronger flavor and aroma than jarred or powdered garlic.
- Roast the garlic first: Roasting the garlic mellows its flavor and makes it sweeter.
- Use a high-quality olive oil: The olive oil you use will greatly affect the flavor of the jelly. Choose a flavorful, extra-virgin olive oil.
- Be patient: Making garlic jelly takes time. The longer you simmer the jelly, the thicker and more flavorful it will be.
- Experiment with different flavors: You can add different herbs, spices, and sweeteners to the jelly to create different flavor variations.
