The green peppers make up a lot for the pepper jelly, and the jalapenos add the perfect bite to finish it off. There are no exact measurements for this recipe because it is a family secret recipe. However, if you watch Grey Goose Gourmet tutorial on YouTube, you can get an idea and eyeball the measurements. Although there are no measurements, she gives the basic principles that can be applied to your own when cooking the pepper jelly. This would be good to eat with crackers and cream cheese. If you’re into charcuterie boards, this would be the perfect jelly to add. Pepper jelly gives a creamy sweetness with a nice kick in the end.

Ingredients:

  • green bell pepper
  • jalapenos
  • lemons
  • apple cider vinegar
  • pectin
  • sugar

Directions:

First, start off by washing and preparing the green bell peppers and jalapenos.  Then, placing them into the food processor and puree them until a smooth consistency is reached. Then, let the puree sit for a little while to let the foam go down.

Overall, she gives tips and tricks on how to make your own pepper jelly with no steps skipped.

Some people use pepper jelly to glaze on top of pork chops, but it’s a versatile condiment that has many uses.
