Ingredients
4largejalapenos (or 6 small)
1cupapple cider vinegar
3cupsgranulated sugar
1tsp.butter
1/4cupliquid pectin (a little less than a 3 oz. package)
Instructions
Remove the stems of the jalapenos. Slice in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and ribs. Chop into big chunks then add to a food processor or blender. Add apple cider vinegar. Process until very finely chopped but not smooth.
Add jalapeno mixture to a saucepan along with the sugar and butter. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil. Cook, boiling, for 3 minutes. Stir in liquid pectin and boil another minute. Remove from heat and carefully pour into jars.
Leave jars on the counter without their lids until they have cooled to room temperature. The jelly will thicken as it cools.
