Ingredients

Directions

  1. Sterilize jelly jars and lids in boiling water according to manufacturer's instructions.
  2. Wearing gloves, remove stems and seeds from jalapeños; discard excess peppers, keeping only 1/4 cup of finely chopped jalapeño.
  3. Core and seed the green bell pepper, then finely chop it.
  4. Measure 1/2 cup of the chopped green bell pepper.
  5. Combine the 1/2 cup green pepper, 1/4 cup jalapeño, sugar, and cider vinegar in a large saucepan.
  6. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over high heat, stirring frequently to dissolve the sugar.
  7. Boil hard for exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  8. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool for 5 minutes.
  9. Stir in the pectin and green food coloring until fully dissolved.
  10. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove all pepper solids.
  11. Ladle the hot liquid immediately into the sterilized jars.
  12. Wipe rims, seal with lids, and process in a water bath canner for 10 minutes or store in the refrigerator for up to one month.
