pineapple pepper jelly recipe

19 years ago

I know that I recently read a pineapple pepper jelly recipe somewhere I thought on this forum, but I cannot find it now that I've harvested a boatload of peppers. Can anyone help me with this recipe? All I can recall is that it could be made with frozen pineapple juice.

Thanks,

Ali aka mabel

    Found this one Pineapple Pepper Jelly recipe but I'd leave out the butter for safety issues. It's optional anyway.

    I think there was also a recipe in one of the earlier "What have you put up this year?" discussions but can't dig it out. You might want to scroll thru them. Good luck. ;)

    Dave thanks for the tip on the what have you put up posts, I'll look through them. I love these GW forums but the search engine frustrates. I had bookmarked the pineapple pepper jelly page but now get the page not found message, grr.

    The first is the one referenced by Dave; the second is one I copied from an earlier thread -- but I can't tell you which one or which forum:

    Adding this recipe per a request on the forums. Number and type of peppers can be adjusted to suit your own personal taste.
    by Jellyqueen
    3 1/2 pints
    1 1/2 hours 1 hour prep

    3 cups juice (2 medium fully ripe pineapples, see directions below)
    3 jalapeno peppers, finely ground (I would use a mini chopper)
    6 1/2 cups sugar, measured into separate bowl
    1/2 teaspoon butter (optional)
    2 (3 ounce) envelopes Certo

    1. BRING boiling-water canner, half-full with water, to simmer. Wash jars and screw bands in hot, soapy water; rinse with warm water. Pour boiling water over flat lids in saucepan off the heat. Let stand in hot water until ready to use.

    2. Drain jars well before filling.

    3. PARE and finely chop or grind pineapples. I prefer grinding because it releases the juices better.

    4. Place 3 layers of damp cheesecloth or jelly bag in large strainer over bowl.

    5. Pour prepared fruit into cheesecloth. Tie cheesecloth closedand let drip into bowl until dripping stops. Press gently.

    6. Measure exactly 3 cups juice into 6- or 8-quart saucepot. You should have enough juice, but if you don't you can add up to 1/2 cup water, or unsweetened canned pineapple juice.

    7. Add finely ground peppers to juice.

    8. STIR sugar into juice in saucepot.

    9. Add butter to reduce foaming, if desired.

    1. Bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly.

    2. STIR in pectin quickly. Return to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly.

    3. Remove from heat & skim off any foam with metal spoon.

    4. LADLE quickly into prepared jars, filling to within 1/8 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads.

    5. Cover with two-piece lids.dd boiling water if needed.

    6. Cover; bring water to gentle boil & process 5 minutes.

    7. Remove jars and place upright on a towel to cool completely.

    8. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middle of lid with finger. (If lid springs back, lid is not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.
