I made my first batch of red pepper jelly for the holidays. It is great on top of goat's cheese or cream cheese, or added to a sandwich.
I'm in charge of appetizers this weekend when the girls go away for Greenery Day. We head up to a friend's cottage and cut greenery for our Christmas pots. But is is really all about the eating. One of the appetizers will be this red pepper jelly on goat's cheese.
RECIPE:
4 red peppers finely chopped in food processer (not pureed)
3/4 cup of white vinegar
1 package of Certo light
3 1/2 cups of white sugar
Add the chopped peppers to a pot with the vinegar and white sugar.
Bring to a full boil and cook for 1 minute.
Remove from burner and add certo, constantly stirring.
Return to burner, bring to a full boil for 1 minute.
Remove pot and pour jelly into waiting sterilized jars and seal with sterilized lids.
Then sit down with a book and a cup of tea and listen as the lids pop to seal!
