Some like it hot!
 
Although I have never seen that movie (have you?), the phrase is familiar and fits this jam!
 
If you like it hot, if you like pineapple then this Hot Pepper Pineapple Jelly is for you.
 
Pepper jams seem to be popping up all over the place lately and I see why! The sweet plus spicy jam adds a nice addition to topping toast, veggies burgers and more.


They are the opposite of a fruit jam and definitely more savory!

A little goes a long way.
 
And I am sure these jams now gracing my freezer will last for a very long time!

 
I created this recipe because our cayenne pepper plant ….grew and grew and grew. Why is that the hot pepper plants always do this? Or maybe it is just because we don’t use the hot pepper as often so it seems like there is SOOO many of them.

Why pineapple? To counter balance the spicy of course!

 
So let me know your thoughts if you make this! One sniff of it while making it, totally cleared up my sinuses!
 
So some may like it hot…
 
Is that you?
