Southern Pepper Jelly




Source of Recipe


?


5 lbs. granulated sugar
1 pint cider vinegar
1 oz. crushed red pepper flakes
3 packages Sure-Jell
1 pint water
4 red bell peppers

Puree red bell peppers (seeds removed) in a food processor. Set aside. In a large pot, dissolve the sugar in the vinegar over medium heat. When the sugar is mostly dissolved, add the pepper puree and the crushed red pepper flakes and bring to a boil.

Meanwhile, dissolve the Sure-Jell in water. After the jelly boils, add the pectin-water mixture and bring to a boil again. Place in a plastic container and chill until set. It should be slightly thicker than honey.
Yields 2 1/2 quarts.
