Important Note

Protect hands with plastic gloves while preparing peppers. Place peppers in blender container; cover. Pulse (on/off) until evenly chopped; do not puree.

" I'd also like to know if this can be made with fresh jalapenos and if so, what is the quantity. I cannot find a no cook hot pepper jelly with fresh peppers only."
