First time jelly maker!! This jelly has a really neat sweet/hot taste and turned out rather pretty! I made this jelly and pomegranate jelly to give as gifts this year for Christmas (red and green). I can't believe I did it and I can't wait to see what my family has to say! Thanks a lot - I definately recommend this recipe to others.

This is the best Pepper Jelly made by anyone, anywhere, at any time. I put in equal amounts of Jalapenos and Sweet Red Peppers and it is just the right amount of heat and sweet. Can't wait to serve it to my friends. Thanks so much.

I use this jelly to dip Southwestern Egg Rolls, off this site, in. Fantastic!

HOT...SWEET...my jelly set up nice and quick. Try boiling ingredients on medium heat for 10 minutes, add pectin and boil for 5 minutes. Also, I used fresh jalapenos. 1 1/2 pounds. Don't forget the gloves and glasses.

Great recipe. I substituted apple cider vinegar for white, which gave it a nice flavor. I also used one green, one yellow, and one orange pepper to vary up the colors a bit and left out the green food coloring (turned out a clear-yellowish color). I think the key to getting the jelly to set, is to load your diced peppers into a towel and squeeze out all the excess liquid.

I love the flavor of this jelly. Although, I have tried four different times to make it and it will not set up. I have followed the directions to the "T" and nothing. It makes a good sauce.

I've always like pepper jelly, but ti's hard to find. This recipe is great and I can make it in varying degrees of heat. Makes a great gift item!

The flavor of this is wonderful! I had a problem with it gelling though, it turned out more like a sauce. I halved the recipe though so that might have caused the problem.

Great taste and texture. Made during Christmas so, I did follow the suggestion about red bell peppers, making a very festive green and red mixture. It went very fast and many guests took home the extra jars as gifts. thanks!!

Not sure why but my jelly didn't set well. Stayed pretty runny. not sure what I did wrong, I followed the recipe exactly. Still tasted good though. Just wasn't something I wanted to give away as gifts -- who wants runny jelly?

DO NOT double this recipe!! I was making it for gifts for about twelve people and so I doubled the ingredients. Big mistake, I found out after my jelly did not set that you are never supposed to double a jelly or jam recipe. I hope this will save another first time jelly maker from making this mistake.

I absolutely love this recipe! It was super easy to make and took no time at all. This was the first time I ever tried making a jelly, but defintely not my last! I gave the first 2 jars to my family to try and they loved it and took 2 more! Thanks for the great recipe Brenda!

Very good taste! It was enough for eight 250ml jars. For all you cooks north of the border: 6 fluid ounces liquid pectin translates to 170 ml (two packages at 85 ml).

AWESOME recipe! Very easy to make and DELICIOUS! I use about half the amount of peppers for a milder jelly. I also use my food processor to mince the peppers. Makes a great gift! Can't go wrong with this recipe!

Wonderful Recipe! This is sooo easy to make and the flavor is WONDERFUL!! I am asked repeatedly for this recipe. My entire family enjoys it and I have to make it year round. Delicious with cream cheese and tortilla chips or crackers. I use my Quisinart to mince/mix the peppers before adding them to the saucepan.Both green & red bell peppers make an attractive jelly. I can make this in 30 minutes or less.Thank you Brenda!

This jelly is wonderful! My sister & I have made 4 batches of it to give to family & friends. Everyone loves it! We made 1 batch without the cayenne pepper to use as strictly a sweet & sour sauce. YUMMY!!!
