dogmom4 Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 (edited) I used to be pretty good at searching the forum but I can’t seem to bring up a recipe for pepper jelly. Anyone care to post a favorite? I was gifted with peppers and tomatoes and I need to do something with them. Edited August 18, 2018 by dogmom4 Quote Link to comment
TheCG Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 (edited) I found this thread by using google search: http://www.mrssurvival.com/topic/40823-pepper-jelly/ Doesn't really have a recipe, but it's the only one that came up in here. Edited August 18, 2018 by TheCG 1 Quote Link to comment
dogmom4 Posted August 19, 2018 Author Share Posted August 19, 2018 Twilight, I am already doing salsa Fresca with the tomatoes and peppers from my own garden. I’ve been dehydrating and have put some in the freezer. This morning a friend offered me a watermelon from her garden so I’m passing on some tomatoes and peppers on to her. This is the season that everything ripens all at the same time (or so it seems). When I was younger I could keep up with it...now it’s harder. 3 Quote Link to comment
Andrea Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 This is late and the peppers have either been eaten or rotted by now, but my favorite pepper relish recipe is the one inside the liquid Certo Pectin box. In fact, I need to make two batches for Christmas gifts. Sigh . . . it's that time already. 3 Quote Link to comment

Annarchy Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Andrea, I have been thinking of you a lot lately. Christmas! So not ready. The pepper plants we planted in the spring, survived the summer heat and are beginning to flower. 1 Quote Link to comment
euphrasyne Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 This is what I make a few times a year. My recipes are in my crazy shorthand, so please forgive the sparse directions. Pepper Jam 6c pepper puree 6c sugar 3/4 c vinegar 1/4c salt Clean and remove stems and seeds from about 20 red (or green or whatever color) bell peppers. Cook down to mush and run through a sieve to remove skins. Combine all and cook to jellying point. Pour into hot jars with 1/4 in head space. Process 1/2 pints for 10m in hot water bath. Makes 8-9 half pints. *Sometimes I add a bit of tobacco sauce or toss in a hotter pepper for extra heat 2 Quote Link to comment
The WE2's Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 We seldom eat jelly or sugar. Honey or Stevia is out normal sweetener. Quote Link to comment
Mt_Rider Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 WE2...if you alter a recipe, I know honey takes a bit of figuring but how does Stevia work out in recipes? MtRider Quote Link to comment
TheCG Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 We tend to use an erithrytol/stevia blend instead of sugar, using the same quantities, but I'm not sure how the preservative qualities would compare. Quote Link to comment
