“Oh, red pepper jelly, how I love you! You tantalize the taste buds and hit all the senses. The red pepper flakes and the vinegar in this recipe balance the sugar, producing a sweet heat.”—Suzanne Vizethann
1 (28-oz.) can roasted diced red peppers, drained
2 tsp. red pepper flakes
1 tsp. kosher salt
¾ cup apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp. unsalted butter
6 cups granulated sugar
2 tsp. apple pectin
Place the red peppers in a food processor and pulse 4 to 5 times until peppers are broken down and puréed.
Pour peppers into a medium saucepan, add pepper flakes, salt, vinegar, butter, and sugar and bring to a full boil. Once mixture has reached a full boil, slowly mix in pectin, whisking vigorously until slightly thickened.
Return to a boil and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes, remove from heat, and cool. This will keep for about 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
