PINEAPPLE JALAPENO JELLY

Steps:

• 1. BRING boiling-water canner, half-full with water, to simmer. Wash jars and screw bands in hot, soapy water; rinse with warm water. Pour boiling water over flat lids in saucepan off the heat. Let stand in hot water until ready to use.
• 2. Drain jars well before filling.
• 3. Pare and finely chop or grind pineapples. I prefer grinding because it releases the juices better.

• 5. Pour prepared fruit into cheesecloth. Tie cheesecloth closedand let drip into bowl until dripping stops. Press gently.
• 6. Measure exactly 3 cups juice into 6- or 8-quart saucepot. You should have enough juice, but if you don't you can add up to 1/2 cup water, or unsweetened canned pineapple juice.

• 8. Stir sugar into juice in saucepot.
• 9. Bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly.

• 16. Cover; bring water to gentle boil & process 5 minutes.
• 17. Remove jars and place upright on a towel to cool completely.
• 18. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middle of lid with finger. (If lid springs back, lid is not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.)
