Serve this jelly atop goat cheese or cream cheese with crispy crackers for a last-minute appetizer. Ingredients:
6 1/4 cups sugar |
2 cups water |
1 cup white vinegar |
1 seeded and thinly sliced jalapeño pepper |
1 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves |
20 drops red liquid food coloring |
2 (3-ounce) packages liquid fruit pectin |
Directions:
1. Bring first 6 ingredients to a boil in a large saucepan. Add pectin, and bring to a full rolling boil. Boil 1 minute. Remove from heat. Remove and discard cilantro leaves; skim off any foam.
2. Pour hot mixture immediately into hot, sterilized jars, filling to 1/4 inch from top. Remove air bubbles; wipe jar rims. Cover at once with metal lids, and screw on bands.
3. Process in boiling-water bath 5 minutes.
4. Note: Jellies usually require only 5 minutes of processing because of their higher acid content.
