This recipe works very well as an alternative dip for corn tortilla chips in place of sour cream based or cheese dips. For a quick off the shelf version, melt three tablespoons of raspberry jelly in the microwave for one minute, and add one tablespoon ( more of less depending on taste ) of jalapeno salsa.

I wasn't sure if I was to use liquid or powder pectin. Only had outdated liquid pectin and used whole pouch and it did not set but being one not to waste and the flavors were outstanding I used as a sauce that I added meatballs to and heated thru. Will get in touch for help on this one - would love to try again.

Made this in 2006. Gave as Christmas gifts. Grandchildren have requested their own loaf of bread,#72180, which I use the bread machine to mix and proof, but put in 2 one lb loaf pans and bake at 375 degrees for 35 minutes. and 8 oz bottle of this Jelly. and 8 oz of cream cheese. This is their favorite jelly and way to eat it. Too many grandchildren to make for Christmas so they get it for their birthdays instead. Did not strain the peppers, Also I have found I prefer 1 cup of vinegar for the recipe. It has jelled wonderfully for me.

I'm really just learning how to cook, but I hope that my skills at eating will really guide me in this endeavor. ;-) I think that sharing recipes on the internet is better than any cookbook. Of course, I founded Recipezaar, so I might be a little biased.
