Pineapple Habanero Jelly Recipe 425 Food

PINEAPPLE HABANERO PEPPER JELLY

Steps:

• Place the finely chopped fresh pineapple in a strainer set over a bowl. Press on the pineapple with the back of a spoon to release as much of the juice as possible. Allow the pineapple to drain while you're prepping the other ingredients.
• Combine the sugar, vinegar, apple, bell pepper, habanero, red pepper flakes, butter and exactly 3 cups of the well-drained pineapple in a large pot. (If you have extra pineapple save it for your morning yogurt or something else. Don't try to add more than 3 cups.)
• Stir until dissolved. Bring the mixture to a full rolling boil and cook for 10 minutes. Watch the pot carefully and lower the heat a bit if the bubbling jelly rises near the top.
• Add Certo and lemon juice and bring the mixture back to a rolling boil. Cook for exactly 1 minute, stirring frequently.
• Remove pot from heat and skim off any foam on the surface. Ladle jelly into clean jars leaving a 1/2-inch space at the top. (this will allow for expansion in the freezer.)
• Cover with lids and allow the jelly to sit for 24 hours, then place in freezer.
• If using the hot water bath method, use sterilized jars and immediately proceed with the water bath canning method. Jelly may take 24 hours to set completely.

PINEAPPLE HABANERO JAM

Steps:

• Cook pineapple, ground habanero, and half the water over medium heat until pineapple is quite soft. This may take up to 10 or even 15 minutes. If the water boils away before the pineapple is soft enough to produce its own juices to cook in, add the rest of the water. Keep stirring and mashing the pineapple to break it down as much as possible.
• Whisk together pectin with 150 grams sugar, then measure out the remaining 150 grams sugar in a separate container and set both aside.
• When the pineapple has softened and the water has mostly evaporated, use an immersion blender to pulverize it until no large chunks remain.
• While stirring, add the pectin and sugar mixture to the pineapple. Add the lemon juice, and stir to combine. The mixture should begin to thicken pretty quickly. Then add the remaining 150 grams sugar and stir well.
• Bring the mixture to a boil and cook, stirring constantly until desired consistency is reached.
• To check the consistency, put a small dollop (about ¼ tsp) on a plate (not plastic) and stick it in the fridge for 30-60 seconds. Then try spreading it with a spoon or knife. If it's too liquid-y, keep cooking a little while longer. If it spreads like jam, it's done. You can keep cooking if you want a thicker jam but it will become firmer as it cools so better to pull it a bit early than cook it a bit too long.If it's still too chunky, you can use the immersion blender again at this point, just be careful because the sugar is quite hot!
• Transfer the jam to a glass jar for canning, or to any airtight container for immediate use and storage.

PINEAPPLE HABANERO JELLY

Steps:

• Grind pineapple chunks in a food processor. I left a few chunks, but for the most part, it was very small chunks.
• Place the pineapple in a strainer and drain for about 5-10 minutes. I have found I get more consistent results draining some of the liquid off.
• Pour into a large heavy bottom pan.
• Now, to prep the peppers, cut off the top. Remove seeds and veins if you choose, there is plenty of heat stored in those seeds and veins, so this will be up to you. I have done it with and without. We love both ways
• Throw them in the same processor you pulsed the pineapple in. Make sure you pulse this into pretty small pieces. My husband likes the bigger chunks, but I like it smaller and more evenly distributed.
• Add to the same pan as the pineapple.
• Now, turn on medium heat. Add in the sugar, salt, and crushed red pepper and vinegar. Heat until sugar is dissolved, it should be either boiling or really close
• Add in pectin and bring to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes.
• Pour into sterilized jars or freezer containers. If you are going to freeze, simply allow the jelly to cool, then place in freezer. If you are canning. Pour into jars. Immediately process in a water bath.
• Just know, it took mine almost overnight to thicken. So, don't stress if it doesn't set up right away.
• Now, sit back and enjoy. You deserve it!

• Add the sugar and stir until dissolved.
• Add the pectin and the Habanero halves. Stirring frequently, bring to a rolling boil that cannot be stirred down. Cook for 2 minutes more, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

• Process jars in hot water bath for 10 minutes.

HABANERO PINEAPPLE JAM

Steps:

• Drain pineapple well, reserving 1/2 cup pineapple juice.
• Inspect 8 half-pint jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water. Place jars and lids on a rack in a large pot of boiling water; sterilize for about 5 minutes. Remove jars from water and place on kitchen towel or wooden board.
• Mix sugar, apple cider vinegar, and salt together in an 8-quart pot and cook over medium heat to dissolve the sugar. Bring to a boil and add the pineapple, reserved pineapple juice, minced bell pepper, habanero peppers, and carrots. Bring back to a rapid boil for about 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Add powdered pectin, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing well after each addition. Let jam boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and ladle into sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch at the top. Wipe off any spillage around the rims of the jars using a damp paper towel.
• Screw on tops and rings. Place the sealed jars back in boiling water for 5 to 10 minutes. Remove jars from boiling water and place on kitchen towel or wooden board. Allow to cool completely, 12 to 24 hours. Listen for a "pop" as jars cool and seal.
