Note
Marmalade may be made up to 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.
Reheat the marmalade gently in a saucepan or microwave before serving.
For a vegan option, use sugar instead of honey.
Adjust the amount of jalapenos based on your desired heat level. Leaving some seeds in will increase the spiciness.
