Diablo Jalapeno Jelly

Recipe Instructions 1. Sterilize jelly jars and lids according to manufacturer's instructions.

Remove seeds from green pepper and chiles (Be very careful with chiles -- don't touch your eyes.) Fit the steel knife blade into the bowl. Chop green pepper into 1/4-inch pieces. Measure 1/2 cup. Reserve rest for another purpose. Chop jalapenos into 1/4 inch pieces. Measure 1/4 cup for jelly.

Place the 1/2 cup green pepper and 1/4 cup jalapenos, sugar and vinegar in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Continue to boil 1 minute. Remove from heat, let cool 5 minutes. Stir in pectin and food coloring.

Strain mixture through a fine strainer to remove pieces of peppers. Pour strained liquid into sterilized jars. Cover tightly and store in a cool place up to 6 months. Makes 2 cups.
