Source of Recipe

From "The Canning Kitchen" by Amy Bronee


Recipe Introduction

"Fall in love with the tropical flavors in this jelly made with juicy mangoes and zingy jalape�o pepper peppers. Try it with grilled fish or coconut prawn skewers for a warm taste of the tropics. I adore the look of this jelly as much as its sweet and spicy flavor."

List of Ingredients

� 3 cups diced mangoes (about 2 large mangoes)
� 2 cups cider vinegar, divided
� � cup minced jalape�o peppers
� 1 package regular powdered pectin
� 5 cups granulated sugar


Recipe

Combine the diced mango and 1 cup of the vinegar in a blender. Pur�e until smooth.

Pour the pur�e into a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Stir in the remaining 1 cup of vinegar, minced jalape�o, and pectin powder. Bring to a full rolling boil over highest heat, stirring frequently. Stir in the sugar. Bring the works back up to a full hard boil for 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Skim off and discard any foamy scum.
