This Tangerine Pepper Jelly was a perfect way to use the tangerine puree from our Colombian Puree project (see more about that here). Check out the recipe below for an amazing spread for breads, charcuterie boards, and more!

Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4 Jalapeño peppers Medium or small-sized works well.
  • 2 Bell peppers We used one red and yellow, but any color would do.
  • 2 Serrano chilis
  • 1 Habanero pepper Small
  • 1 quart Tangerine purée Could also use orange puree or juice here too.
  • 2 tbsp Lime juice You may need a few limes to accomplish this.
  • ¼ cup White vinegar
  • 4 cup Sugar
  • 1 ½ package Fruit pectin

Instructions

  • Start by washing and finely dicing all peppers (either with a knife or food processor), making sure to remove the ribs and seeds. Lightly sauté in a large stock pot over medium heat.
  • Once the peppers have turned almost translucent (3-5 minutes), add tangerine purée, lime juice, and vinegar to the mixture and stir well to combine.
  • Stir in the pectin next. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred), stirring constantly for 5-10 minutes.
  • Stir in the sugar. Return to full rolling boil for exactly one minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, skimming off any foam with a metal spoon (if necessary).
  • Boil water and pour it into mason jars to prevent cracking when adding the jelly. Pour out water and pour the jelly into the jars carefully with a funnel until about 1/4 inch of space is left, covering tightly with lids.
  • Keep in the fridge for up to 3 weeks (once opened), or boil the jars in a saucepan, with water covering 1-2 inches above the lids for 10 minutes to seal and keep in the pantry (a cool, dark place) for up to 1 year. Jars are sealed when you can press the tops of the lids and they don't pop or bounce back.

Notes

  • *If making jelly to preserve fruits/vegetables and not for immediate use, prepare water-bath canner, jars, and lids according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
