  • Notes:

    Sterilize jars and lids: Wash jars, lids, and screw bands in hot, soapy water, then rinse well. Dry screw bands. Put empty jars on a rack in a boiling-water canner or a deep 8- to 10-quart pot and add enough hot water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, covered, then boil 10 minutes. Remove canner from heat, leaving jars in water, covered. Heat lids in water to cover by 2 inches in a small saucepan until thermometer registers 180°F (do not let boil). Remove from heat. Keep jars and lids submerged in hot water, covered, until ready to use.

Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 1 pounds - Red bell peppers
  2. 1/2 pounds - Green bell peppers
  3. 6 1/2 cups - Sugar
  4. 1 1/2 cups - Cider vinegar
  5. 2 teaspoons - Dried hot red pepper flakes
  6. 9 ounces - Liquid pectin

Directions:

Cut the bell peppers into 1-inch pieces and in a food processor chop them very fine. Transfer the chopped peppers to a deep kettle, add the sugar, vinegar and red pepper flakes, and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Stir in the pectin and boil the mixture over moderately high heat, stirring, until it reaches the jelly stage (222°F on a candy thermometer). Transfer the jelly to sterilized Mason-type jars (sterilizing procedures in notes below), filling the jars to within 1/4-inch of the tops, wipe the rims with a dampened towel, and seal the jars. The jelly keeps, sealed, in a cool dark place indefinitely. Serve the jelly as a condiment with grilled meats or with cream cheese on crackers.
