Recipe Introduction
This is intensely hot, but absolutely delicious. Use just a bit in Patsy's Bacon Dip. See Appetizers.
List of Ingredients
2-4 pounds jalapeno peppers (actually any chile will do, none of the heat is lost.)
2 pounds onions
1/4 cup vinegar
1/4 cup water or more if needed
6-8 cups sugar, 8 cups if you like sweet
2 tablespoons mustard seed
2 teaspoons turmeric
2 teaspoons celery seed
1 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Recipe
Wash and cut jalapenos and onions into thin slices
Place in large covered saucepot, with water and vinegar. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until tender, about 10 minutes. Pour off most (90%) of the vinegar water. Add remaining ingredients. Bring to a soft candy temperature on a candy thermometer. Pack in jars leaving 1/4-inch headspace; adjust lids. Yield: about 7 pints.
