A blog I read regularly (FoodieRachel) had a recipe for Jalapeno Jam and it got me thinking that I should make some with the Garden Salsa peppers we grew this summer. So last Saturday we "jammed", as Barron calls it.
Sealing them up. Hope it works!
Tada! It worked!
This was my first time canning anything, so I was pretty nervous about it all. Thankfully Barron was there to help, or we wouldn't have been successful. It was so exciting hearing the lids popped, indicating they sealed!
Barron had never had pepper jelly before, so he was skeptical, but he came around after trying it with some cream cheese. Since we were successful on our first attempt, he wanted to make strawberry jam, so we headed to the store for some strawberries and repeated the process. It went more smoothly the second time and we've been enjoying jam all week long! Will I do it again...well, maybe next year when I forget the process.
