Red Pepper Jelly ### Ingredients

2 large red bell peppers, finely chopped
1 cup apple cider vinegar
5 cups granulated sugar
1 package (1.75 oz) fruit pectin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (adjust for spiciness)

Instructions

Prepare your jars: Sterilize your canning jars and lids in boiling water to ensure your jelly remains fresh and safe to use.
Combine the peppers and vinegar: In a large pot, combine the finely chopped red bell peppers and apple cider vinegar. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
Add sugar: Gradually stir in the granulated sugar and return the mixture to a rolling boil. Ensure that the sugar is completely dissolved.
Incorporate pectin: Stir in the fruit pectin, and bring the mixture back to a boil for 1-2 minutes. Make sure to stir frequently to prevent sticking.
Season: Add salt and crushed red pepper flakes, adjusting the spice level to your preference. Mix well and remove from heat.
Jar it up: Carefully pour the hot jelly into your prepared jars, leaving about 1/4 inch of headspace at the top. Wipe the rims of the jars with a clean cloth to remove any spills before sealing.
Cool and store: Seal the jars with lids and let them cool at room temperature. Once cooled, store in the refrigerator or a cool, dark place.
