Green Pepper Jelly


From the Kitchen of:  Sylvia
Source:  Keeping the Harvest

This unusual jelly is excellent with cream cheese on crackers or melba toast as an appetizer. It also can be used as an accompaniment for meat or game.

Mix peppers, sugar, and vinegar in a stainless or enameled pan and bring to a brisk boil. Boil for 3 minutes. Add pectin and boil for 1 minute longer. Remove from heat and let stand 5 minutes. Pour into hot, sterile jars, leaving 1/4 inch headroom, and adjust seals. Process in a boiling-water canner for 15 minutes. Remove jars from canner and let them cool.

Yield: Six to eight half-pints
