ZESTY RED ONION JELLY (Bob Rouleau)
Makes 3 250 or 236 mL Mason jars.
* 1 cup (250 mL) diced red onion
* 2 tsps (10 mL) lemon zest
* 3/4 cup (175 mL) white vinegar
* 3 cups (750 mL) granulated sugar
* 1 pouch (3 oz/85 mL) Liquid Pectin
Cut red onion into 1/8 inch (3 mm) slices, cut slices into 1/4 inch (5 mm dice). Measure 1 cup (250 mL) into a large deep stainless steel saucepan. With a sharp knife cut a wide strip of paper thin yellow peel from lemon; cut into thin strips and measure 2 teaspoons (10 mL) into saucepan. Stir in vinegar and sugar. See Jelly Preparation directions below.
JELLY PREPARATION
1. Place 3 clean 250 or 236 mL Mason jars in a boiling water canner, fill with water, cover and boil hard 10 minutes. Set screw bands aside; heat snap lids in hot water, not boiling (180˚F 82˚C). Keep jars and snap lids hot until ready to use.
2. Measure ingredients (except pectin) for selected recipe into a large, deep stainless steel saucepan as specified in each recipe.
3. Over high heat, bring mixture to a full rolling boil. Stirring constantly, boil hard 1 minute. Remove from heat. Immediately stir in one pouch Liquid Pectin, mixing well.
4. Pour jelly into hot sterilized jars, dividing solids equally among jars and filling each jar to within 1/4 inch (5 mm) of top rim headspace. Wipe jar rims removing any stickiness. Centre snap lid on jar; apply screw band securely and firmly until resistance is met--fingertip tight. Do not overtighten. Place jar upright in canner; boiling water should cover lids by 1 inch (2.5 cm).
5. Cover canner; return water to boil. At altitudes up to 1,000 ft (305 m) process by boiling filled jars 5 minutes. Remove jars without tilting. Cool upright, until lids pop down, about 30 minutes. Do not retighten screw bands. When lids are concave, carefully invert, twist and/or rotate each jar to distribute solids throughout the jelly. The jar can be inverted temporarily but should not be allowed to stand upside-down for prolonged periods. Repeat as needed during the cooling/setting time, until solids are nicely suspended in the jelly.
6. After 24 hours, check jar seals. Sealed lids curve downward. Remove screw bands; wipe and dry bands and jars. Store screw bands separately or replace loosely on jars, as desired. Label and store jars in a cool, dark place.

* 3 cups (750 mL) granulated sugar
* 1 pouch (3 oz/85 mL) Liquid Pectin
Cut red pepper into 1/8 inch (3 mm) slices, cut slices into 1/4 inch (5 mm dice). If desired use a food processor but avoid making a puree. Measure 1 cup (250 mL) red pepper into a large deep stainless steel saucepan. Finely slice garlic cloves; then cut slices into slivers. Garlic can also be ground or crushed, if desired. Add to red pepper with sugar and cider vinegar. See Jelly Preparation directions, above.

* 1 pouch (3 oz/85 mL) Liquid Pectin
With scissors or knife, cut apricots into 1/8 inch (3 mm) slices. Measure into a large deep stainless steel saucepan with vinegar; let stand 4 hours. Individually, cut onion and seeded peppers into 1/8 inch (3 mm) slices, cut slices into 1/4 inch (5 mm dice). Measure each ingredient; add to apricots. Stir in sugar.

BASIL BANANA PEPPER JELLY (Bob Rouleau)
Makes 3 250 or 236 mL Mason jars.
* 1/2 cup (125 mL) thinly sliced, seeded mild banana peppers--fresh or pickled
* 1/4 cup (50 mL) thinly sliced, fresh hot peppers (most seeds removed)
* 1/4 cup (50 mL) finely diced red onion
* 3 to 4 large fresh basil leaves, cut into thin ribbons

* 3/4 cup ( 175 mL) white vinegar
* 3 cups (750 mL) granulated sugar
* 1 pouch (3 oz/85 mL) Liquid Pectin
Combine mild and hot peppers, red onion, fresh and dried basil in a large, deep stainless steel saucepan. Stir in vinegar and sugar. See Jelly Preparation directions, above.
SALSA JAM
Makes about 5 half-pint jars
2 cups peeled, seeded and chopped ripe plum tomatoes
2/3 cup chopped red onion
2/3 cup tomato sauce
3 tbsp. seeded and finely chopped jalapeno chili peppers*
3 tbsp. strained fresh lime juice
1 1/2 tsp. finely minced lime zest
1/2 tsp. Tabasco sauce or other hot pepper sauce
5 cups sugar
1 (3-ounce) pouch liquid pectin
In an 8-quart stainless steel pan, combine the tomatoes, onion, tomato sauce and
peppers.
Over medium heat, stirring constantly, bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and
simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Add in the lime juice, zest and hot pepper sauce. Gradually stir in the sugar.
Over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, heat the mixture until the sugar is
completely dissolved. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a full
rolling boil, stirring constantly. Stir in the pectin. Return the mixture to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly. Boil, stirring constantly for 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat.
To prevent the jam from separating in the jars, allow the jam to cool 5 minutes before
filling the jars. Gently stir the jam every minutes or so to distribute the salsa. Ladle the hot jam into hot jars leaving * inch headspace. Wipe the jar rims and threads with a clean, damp cloth. Cover with hot lids and apply screw rings. Process half-pint jars in a 200F (93C) water bath for 10 minutes, pint jars for 15 minutes.
*I used one whole serrano pepper and enough jalapeno peppers to equal 3 tbsp.
