  • 3 notes:.
  • 4 you can substitute habanero peppers for the jalapanos, however; you might want to increase the bell pepper and decrease the hot peppers so the jelly won;t be too hot!
  • 5 i like to use some red bell peppers to give some color.
  • 6 i strain the jelly while it is hot and pour into the jars, then stir the peppers into each jar for even distribution of the peppers.
