    I have been pressure canning my own soups and meats for a while and decided to foray into water bath canning. Since I’m a freak who is obsessed with sweet and spicy, this is the [jalapeño jelly from Ball](https://www.ballmasonjars.com/blog?cid=jalapeno-jelly-0). No food coloring. It has been water bath canned per the instructions, adjusted for my elevation. All jars sealed.

    The hardest part was researching the calculations for powdered pectin, since the recipe gives a measurement for liquid pectin packets and the bulk powdered pectin I bought (Ball brand) doesn’t have instructions on how to use it. I have never worked with pectin before and am wary of purees and gelatinous anything. But it turned out, so I think I did it right.

    I can’t wait to slather this on approximately everything. It tastes amazing. Bwahahaha. <3!

    Wow! It looks great! One of my favorite water bath canning recipes is a peach – jalapeno jam. I love that sweet and hot combo.

    I’m adding this to my list to do! Looks good I love the Tabasco jelly but it’s becoming more expensive and I use it to make smoked breakfast stub rolls. ( sausage mustard coffee rub filled with spicy jelly and cream cheese smoked)
