Ingredients Needed For Candied Jalapenos:
This is not Salsa but goes great with it
Candied Jalapenos
( Cowboy Candy)
This makes a very tasty and spicy addition to almost any meal.
4 lbs fresh jalepeno peppers sliced
2 lbs onions diced
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup water
6 to 8 cups sugar depending on your sweet tooth I like more
2 Tbs mustard seed
1 tsp turmeric
2 tsp celery seed (optional)
1 Tbs garlic powder
1 tsp ginger
Slice Jalapenos into thin slices and dice onions (I would suggest a pair of rubber gloves for handling jalapenos, personal experience, do not touch your face!). Place in pan with water and vinegar,bring to a boil, reduce heat & simmer about 10 min or until tender. (do not breath fumes) . Pour off most of the water vinegar mixture, add the sugar and spices bring to soft candy temperature to completly disolve sugarabout anothe 10 min. Place boiling mixture into jars,leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Adjust caps.
