Jalapeno Pepper Pie Recipes

JALAPENO POPPERS

Steps:

• Take one whole chilli and using a small sharp knife make an incision along the length without cutting all the way through. Open up the cavity and using the end of a teaspoon scrape out and discard the seeds and the membrane. It's very good idea to wear gloves when you're preparing chillies in this way, and make sure you wash your hands thoroughly afterwards. Repeat with all the other chillies.
• Mix the cream cheese with the mozzarella, season with salt and pepper then use it to fill the chillies. Push them gently to close them up and wipe off any excess.
• Put the flour, egg and breadcrumbs in separate shallow bowls or dishes and roll the stuffed chillies first in the flour then egg then breadcrumbs then repeat so they get a good double coating.
• Heat the oil in a large saucepan until it reaches 160C. Carefully lower the chillies into the oil using a slotted spoon and deep fry in batches for around 2-3 mins or until deep golden brown. Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper to soak up the excess oil.
• Once the chillies are fried season them with pepper and salt and spread out on a plate or board so everyone can help themselves. Great with beer and a movie.

JALAPENO HOT SAUCE

Steps:

• Give the jalapenos a good rinse and de-stem them. Be sure to wash your hands after handling them. More info on handling hot chiles.
• Saute a roughly chopped 1/2 onion and 2 whole, peeled garlic cloves in a glug of oil over medium heat.
• Once the onion is browning you can add 1 teaspoon Mexican oregano, some freshly cracked black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon cumin (optional). Briefly cook until fragrant and then add: the de-stemmed jalapenos, 3/4 cup white vinegar, 1/2 cup water, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer and then add everything to a blender.
• Add 8-10 sprigs cilantro and the juice of 1 lime to the blender. Combine well or to your desired consistency. I usually leave it a bit chunky but you can always blend it thinner.
• Add mixture to three 5 oz. bottles or a small Mason jar. Store in the fridge where it will keep for at least a month.

Steps:

• Wash a wide-mouth pint mason jar and and its lid in hot soapy water. Then rinse and let air dry.
• Thinly slice the jalapeño peppers. Fill the jar with the slices.
• Peel the garlic cloves, leaving them whole. In a small saucepan, combine the garlic, vinegar, water, sugar, kosher salt, peppercorns and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar and salt (this will take only a few minutes).
• Once boiling, pour the brine into the jar (including the bay leaf). Tap the jar on the counter to release any air bubbles. Discard any remaining brine, or top off the jar with extra water if any peppers are exposed at the top.
• Screw on the lid tightly and allow to cool to room temperature (about 1 hour). Eat immediately, or refrigerate until serving. Keeps up to 1 month refrigerated.

JALAPENO PEPPER JAM

Steps:

• ***Before you begin, be sure to wash and dry your jars.***
• 1. You will need 4 total cups of finely chopped jalapeno and bell peppers. I used 1 large red bell pepper, 1 large green pepper and 10 jalapeno. Some of my jalapeno are red (as you can see from the picture). My friend Cindi grew them in her garden. Aren't they pretty!
• Now, before you start chopping..
• Be sure to put some rubber gloves on. The seeds in the jalapeno peppers will burn you. Honestly, they really will. Trust a girl who knows from a previous bad experience.
• 2. Chop the ends from the jalapeno and bell peppers.Chop them into small pieces. I use (and love) this Progressive Fruit and Vegetable Chopper.Chop enough to equal 4 cups. I opted to leave all of the seeds in, which ended up being a nice amount of heat. You can leave some of them out if you are looking for a more mild jam.
• 3. Pour the chopped peppers into a large pot. Sprinkle 1 (1.75 ounce) package of pectin over them and stir to combine.
• 4. Add 1 C apple cider vinegar. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium high heat.
• 5. Once you have a rolling boil, add 5 cups granulated sugar. Stir it well, making sure that all of the sugar is dissolved.
• 6. Stirring constantly, bring it back to a rolling boil. Allow it to boil for 1 minute then remove it from the heat.
• 7. Carefully pour the hot jam into pint-sized jars.
• 8. Take a wet paper towel and clean the rim of the jars, making sure there isn't any jam sticking to it. This will help you get a nice, clean seal.
• 9. Place a lid and ring onto the top of the jars. Make sure you are using new lids. Lids that have been used in the past won't seal properly for you. Place the jars in a water bath canner and process for 15 minutes. The lids will make a popping sound once they have sealed. You can check to be sure they have sealed by pressing your finger in the center of the lid. If it's firm, you are good to go. If it has some give to it, the lid hasn't sealed and will need to be processed in the water bath canner for a longer period of time.
• Store in a cool, dry place. Refrigerate after opening.
• This jam is wonderful served with cream cheese and Ritz crackers.

• Oil a glass pie pan and line it with the jalapeño peppers.

POPPIN' JALAPENO BLACKBERRY PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place a baking sheet on the bottom rack of the oven.
• Combine blackberries, honey, jalapeno peppers, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Mix 1/2 cup brown sugar and cornstarch together in a bowl; stir into blackberry mixture until brown sugar mixture is dissolved.
• Mix flour and 1/2 cup brown sugar together in a separate large bowl; cut butter into flour mixture using a pastry blender or food processor until mixture forms pea-sized balls. Add ice water and mix with your hands until dough is well combined, adding flour if the mixture is too sticky and small amounts of water if the mixture is too dry.
• Divide dough in half and roll each half into a 9-inch circle on a well-floured surface. Press 1 circle into a 9-inch pie dish.
• Remove jalapeno peppers from blackberry mixture and discard. Slowly pour blackberry mixture into pie crust, leaving about 1/4-inch space between top of filling and top edge of pie crust.
• Mix oats and 1/2 cup brown sugar together in a bowl; sprinkle over blackberry filling. Cover pie with second pie crust. Cut off excess edges from top crust and fold bottom crust edges over top crust edges, pinching to form a seal. Cut 2 slits in the top of crust for ventilation.
• Place pie on the middle rack of the oven, centered over the baking sheet on the bottom rack to catch drips. Bake pie until crust starts turning golden, about 25 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake until entire crust is golden brown, about 40 more minutes.
