How to make fire & ice jelly (hot red pepper jelly)

Sterilize your jars/lids in boiling water for at least ten minutes. I boil mine while I prepare the jelly.

Finely chop your red pepper. You will need 3/4 cup.

You can use either 2 Tbsp dried chili flakes or 5-6 finely chopped hot red chili peppers. I used fresh chilis from my garden.

Chop your hot peppers finely. Leave the seeds, they add heat!

Gather lemon juice, apple juice, and fruit pectin.

In a large pot, add your red pepper and hot pepper. Add 1/4 cup lemon juice.

Add 375ml of Apple juice or Ice Wine. I used Apple juice!

Stir well and let sit for about 20 minutes.

Get your sugar ready, you will need 3 cups.

Add sugar to your pot.

Stir well.

Over high heat, stirring constantly, bring jelly to a rolling boil.

Once boiling, continue to heat, stirring constantly, for 1 minute.

Reduce heat to medium. Add Certo Fruit Pectin slowly. Stir constantly for another 7 minutes.

Keep stirring!

Get your sterilized jars ready.

Pour your jelly into jars, leaving 1/4" space at the top of the jar.

Filled jars of jelly!

Wipe the edges with a cloth dipped in boiling water.

Place lids on.

Add rings. Tighten lids, but not too tightly.

Leave jars to set, cool, and seal.

Enjoy! :-)
