- Category: Breakfast & Brunch
Ingredients
- 4 Jalapeño peppers (medium or small sized work well)
- 2 Bell peppers, one red and yellow
- 2 Serrano chilis
- 1 Habanero pepper, small
- 1 qt Tangerine purée
- 1/2 Lime, juiced
- 1/4 c White vinegar
- 4 c Sugar
- 1 1/2 pkg Fruit pectin
Instructions
- *If making jelly to preserve fruits/vegetables and not for immediate use, prepare water-bath canner, jars and lids according to manufacturer’s 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 1 min., stirring constantly. Remove from heat, skimming off any foam with metal spoon (if necessary).
- Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of tops.
