CHIPOTLE MANGO JELLY

Steps:

• 1. Sterilize and prepare pint canning jars and lids as directed.
• 2. Put 3 cups fresh mangos and the drained chipotle peppers in food processor or blender. Blend until smooth.
• 3. In a heavy 6 quart pan, add 6 cups sugar and 2 cups apple cider vinegar. Stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved.
• 4. Once sugar is dissolved add mango pepper mixture. Bring to a rolling boil that you can not stir down for 10 minutes. Turn off heat and let cool for ten minutes.
• 5. Add 6 oz or two pouches of the liquid pectin. Bring back up to a rolling boil for 5 minutes. Turn off heat.
• 6. Ladle into jars. I use the hot water bath process. Some people just put the lids turn the jars upside down and the lids seal either way.
• 7. Enjoy as a snack with bagels and cream cheese. I use the jelly to make crostini appetizers and I use it for cooking.

HOT-PEPPER JELLY

Steps:

• Place a few small plates in freezer. Combine apples and 2 1/2 cups water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook, partially covered, mashing occasionally with a potato masher, until fruit is very soft, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer fruit to a fine sieve set over a heatproof bowl; let drain without pressing on fruit, 4 hours. Strain again through sieve lined with damp cheesecloth. (You should have 2 cups.)
• In a saucepan, bring juice, vinegar, salt, bell pepper, and hot pepper to a boil. Add sugar; return to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Cook, stirring, 11 minutes. Turn off heat. Place a small spoonful of jelly on a chilled plate; return to freezer 1 minute. Remove and push your finger through mixture; if it wrinkles, it is done. If not, return to a boil for 1 to 2 minutes, then check again. (Or cook until a thermometer registers 221 degrees.) Skim foam from top.
• Ladle into clean containers, leaving 3/4 inch of headroom; let cool completely. Cover, label, and refrigerate up to 1 month, or freeze up to 1 year.

MANGO JALAPENO JAM

Steps:

• Bring to a full boil, one that cannot be stirred down, stirring occasionally.
• Add the rest of the sugar and return to boil for one more minute.
• Remove from heat. Remove any foam.
• Ladle into hot prepared jars, leaving 1/4 inch at the top. Wipe and process in hot water bath using good canning procedures.
