ORANGE JALAPENO JELLY
2 to 3 fresh jalapeño peppers, seeded and minced
1 (4 oz.) jar pimentos, drained well
5 T. minced green bell pepper
1 1/2 C. freshly squeezed orange juice
1 C. white wine vinegar
6 1/2 C. granulated sugar
3 (3 oz.) pkg. liquid fruit pectin
Combine all ingredients except pectin in large kettle or Dutch oven. Stir well. Bring to a hard rolling boil, and boil 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat and let stand 5 minutes. Skim foam from top with metal spoon.
Add pectin and stir well.
Quickly ladle into hot, sterilized half-pint jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Wipe rims of jars with damp cloth; cover at once with metal lids and screw bands; seal tightly.
Process filled jars in hot water bath, or refrigerate immediately after cooling. Turn jars frequently during cooling to distribute pepper evenly throughout jelly. Makes 6 half-pint jars.
