"This jelly is excellent on crackers with cream cheese and it can be used as
a basting sauce for grilled poultry. For a sweet and hot flavor, add fruits
such as apricots or peaches to the jelly." Place the chiles and peppers in

bring to a boil over high heat, and boil rapidly for 10 minutes, stirring
