Hello all - Takin' a couple of days off & decided to dust off the canner. So far made a couple of kinds of pickles & a double batch of Diana Kennedy's Chiles Jalapeņos en Escabeche (Mexican Regional Cooking). Found enormous very distressed looking jalapeņos at a farm stand in new hampster & couldn't pass them up. They were surprisingly hot & their skins were covered with cracking/veining which made me believe they probably would be hotter than normal. Nothing like boiling vinegar & hot peppers to wake you up! Question: Now I'm onto jelly or jam - any suggestions? Still got one more day off... Hope everyone had a great summer - Helen
