The recipe for hot pepper jam, as I've had quite a few people ask for this! And some pics to accompany the recipe. I made two batches of this today, one red and one green. I used green peppers and hot green peppers (hotter than jalapenos) and then red peppers and hot red peppers (also, mega hot!) If using fresh peppers, you would want to remove the seeds first, as the seeds add even more heat. I was given my peppers from my sister who chopped them up last year and then froze them, seeds intact. So my version is really hot! Also, for my red pepper version I used apple cider vinegar instead of white vinegar. But I'm sure either would work. Enjoy!
