Candied Jalapenos Recipe
- 1 gal Sliced jalepeno peppers, (the pickled kind found in the ethnic area of most supermarkets). Either the plain or possibly mixed with carrots are good.
- 4 c. Sugar
- 5 pt Canning jars with sealing lids, (Kerr)
- Another great treat for a side that I may (or possibly may have not) mentioned in the past - sometimes I have a senior moment and forget - are Candied Jalapenos.
- These are made just about the same way and taste great alongside a plate of ribs or possibly brisket.
- Place the strained jalapenos with the sugar into a stockpot.
- Heat slowly till the sugar melts.
- Increase heat till the mix boils.
- Reduce heat and immediately begin to fill jars.
- Fill to within 1 inch of the top and make sure the peppers are covered with syrup.
- Place 1 Tbsp.
- sugar on top of the peppers.
- Wipe off the top of the jar and seal with the lid and band (the lids should be in boiling water to soften the rubber seal).
- Screw the bands on gently making sure which the lids are seated.
- Place in an area out of drafts till completely cooled.
- Allow to age for 3 or possibly 4 days before opening the first jar.
- Chill after opening jars.
- These are great!
- The sugar tempers a bit of the heat and makes a sweet mix of flavors.
