Candied jalapeños also known as Cowboy Candy are delicious. With the sweetness added they aren't fire hot.

I love making this jam and serving it over cream cheese for Holiday Get Togethers especially round Christmas time because of the reds n greens in color.

We have a bumper crop of Jalapeños and I use a lot so I canned them.

Canning salsa is easy. It's so inspiring to me to be able to take my summer harvest of veggies from the garden and turn them into a lasting source of food for my family. It also allows me to do fun projects with my husband, Donk, and share our ideas in the kitchen! If you want super hot salsa, just add more jalapeños to this recipe. This will have a shelf life of a couple of years and has an awesome flavor for your Mexican dishes.

In my house hold we love our salsa. This recipe is for canning and makes about 11 pints depending on the size of the tomatoes. We use fresh ingredients from our own garden when possible Usually we can about 2 batches a year. I puree' all the ingredient but you can chop to any consistency you desire.

stuffed Jalapenos

My brother-in-law, André, enjoys gardening and grows loads of beautiful jalapeños especially for me. I love them and use in a lot of my recipes. They're quick and easy to pickle for the fridge. I strongly recommend wearing latex gloves when handling the jalapeños. We had a couple of leftover mini bells sweet peppers from André's garden that I also used because I liked the red/green contrast. Then he brought in a mess of beautiful banana peppers, and I thought what the heck....in they went. They're delicious!

A little over cooked...but still good

Fermented jalapenos are super easy to make. They are a great addition to any sandwich or salad. They are spicy and salty and garlicky. Lacto fermenting jalapenos is also a great way to preserve jalapeno peppers.
