Categories     Mango

Time 1h

Yield 8 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 fresh jalapeno chilies (6 to 9 oz.)
6 cups coarsely chopped peeled ripe mangoes
3/4 cup lemon juice
1 (1 3/4 ounce) package dry pectin, for lower-sugar recipes
4 cups sugar

Steps:

  • Broil chilies on a small baking sheet 3 to 4 inches from heat, turning as needed, until chilies are charred and blistered all over, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool. Remove and discard skin, stems, and seeds. Coarsely chop chilies.
  • In a 6- to 8-quart pan, combine mangoes, chilies, and lemon juice.
  • Mix pectin with 1/4 cup sugar and stir into mangoes. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat - keep stirring. Add remaining 3 3/4 cups sugar and stir until mixture returns to rolling boil. Stir and boil exactly 1 minute longer. Remove from heat.
  • Ladle into clean canning jars to within 1/8 inch of top. Wipe jar rims. Set clean, flat lids on top. Screw on bands. Invert jars for 5 minutes, and then turn upright. Let cool at least 24 hours. Check seals by pressing firmly on centers of the lids. If a lid pops back, it's not sealed; store it in refrigerator.**.
  • **Modern preserving guidelines call for leaving 1/4" headspace in the jars and boiling water bathing for five minutes at sea level. Remove to a protected countertop to cool, undisturbed, for 24 hours. Do not invert the jars as it can affect the sealing compound's ability to form a tight seal to the edge of the jar.

Can I use this jam as a glaze for roasted chicken?

I followed the recipe exactly, but my jam didn't turn out as thick as I expected. Any tips?

This jam is delicious, but I wish it was a bit thicker. I had a hard time spreading it on my toast.

The flavor of this jam is a bit too one-dimensional for me. I was hoping for more complexity.

This jam is a bit too spicy for my taste, but I can definitely see the appeal. It would be great for those who enjoy a bit of heat.

This jam is a delightful addition to my cheeseboard. It adds a touch of sweetness and spice that complements the cheese beautifully.

The balance of flavors in this jam is exceptional. The sweetness of the mango pairs perfectly with the warmth of the chili peppers.
