These are awesome. I served them with Ritz crackers and cream cheese. also called Cowboy Candy.
Ingredients:
4 lbs fresh jalapeno peppers, sliced
2 lbs onions, diced
1/2 cup vinegar
1/2 cup water
6 -8 cups sugar
2 tablespoons mustard seeds
1 teaspoon turmeric
2 teaspoons celery seeds
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ginger
Directions:
1. 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!) Remove some of the seeds to make this less hot. Place in pan with water and vinegar, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer about 10 minute or until tender.(Do not breathe fumes) Pour off most of the water and vinegar mixture, add the sugar and spices. Bring to soft candy temperature to completely dissolve sugar, about 10 minute Place boiling mixture into clean, sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Adjust caps.
