Yield: 4 (14-oz.) jars
Level: Easy
Add as much red hot chilies as you can handle. I used more bell peppers because my family can't stand too much heat.
Ingredients
15-20 red hot chili peppers, halved and seeded
15-20 red hot chili peppers, halved and seeded
2 yellow bell peppers, halved and seeded
4 red bell peppers, halved and seeded
2 cups apple cider vinegar
3 cups sugar (or to taste)
Directions
- In a saucepan, combine chili peppers, red bell peppers, and apple cider vinegar.
- Cover and cook for about 20 minutes or until the peppers have softened.
- Drain and transfer peppers to a blender, puree and strain through a sieve to remove skin.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, add pepper puree and sugar.
- Stir until sugar has dissolved and cook for about 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat when the mixture reaches a jam consistency.
- Allow to cool and transfer into jars.
Chumkie, thanks for the additions to the "jammy" collection - I haven't made my own chilli jam but love it so will have to give it a try. Cheers
